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.

It's comfort. I know content creators, artists, etc., who don't want to touch the Fediverse, yet whine about Twitter (and Facebook, and Instagram) all day long. Some cry about techbros on the Fediverse, yet pay the blue checkmark tax. As well as supposed bad moderation, etc.
Centralized social media platforms put everyone at one place without having to register an account every place you want to interact with people. This however put enormous power into their hands. The Fediverse solves the "but I have to register every place" issue with federation, while the only power-imbalance might be from bigger, more desired federations could dictate rules to the less desired ones.
