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.

Right? I wasn't expecting that level of sass, but I'm here for it.

[Three stations] however, were open from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., a completely reasonable schedule given most Vegas tourists are tucked back in their beds by 8:30 p.m.

Well, that thing is a joke.

I read a similar article some time ago, but mostly it was the pictures/video - apparently it hasn't changed one bit since years ago - it looks like a temporary redecoration of some industrial building. For a party.

Why Las Vegas agreed to this instead of just scrapping the whole project. - ah well, I can imagine why, but it's still unbelievable.

I guess this is just one in a long exhibition of expensive & shiny but utterly useless oddities in Vegas?

Hey, at least Las Vegas was willing to throw itself on the pyre before a "real" city got conned into building their own loop system. (Yes I know other cities are looking into building loops themselves, but they're all tourist traps like Orlando and New Orleans, not actual metropolises.)
