Enough Musk Spam

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

OK. So if you're one of the VERY few lucky people to have amazing healthcare then sure... Live forever. Most of us don't so what do we do?

Some countries actually care about their people and provide free, government funded healthcare. You could vote and write to your politicians in ways that support implementing that into your area.

I do vote, but this is America. I have no real power.

Not with that removed ass attitude.

Have you missed the part where fascism has taken over the US, in spite of the millions of us who tried to stop it in the polls, only to have a slightly larger number get duped into believing that the fascists will fix the price of eggs and that would make the horror okay? Or before that even how the rich have managed to convince so many of us of the lie that government run healthcare was not only socialism/communism (dirty words here) would ruin our healthcare system and we'd be forced to sit and wait for months or years for necessary procedures and die on the waiting list, or that the government will just flat out decide it was time for you to die through "death panels"?

There are plenty of us who have been fighting for this our whole lives, maybe hold off on that "removed ass attitude" bullshit for us just pointing out that we don't actually have power here.
