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.

Ever since 1850? Geee, just two years after the Revolutions of 1848, I guess the peoples should never be appeased because they'll just want more and more!
I wasn't talking about the US ๐คฆ
It's stupid how people just assume it's america if you don't specify.
What the fuck are you talking about? Spring of Nations didn't spread to the US in the slightest.
Then what are you talking about?
As for me, I'm referring to Marx and communist critiques of capitalism that have spanned several European countries in its inception which were then expanded by 20th century and modern communists who repeatedly said that collapse was imminent and inevitable.
That's been a consistent theme that hasn't changed since around 1850.
People keep going "oh yeah, it's really gonna collapse this time! There's gonna be real good change soon!" Nope. Bs. Historically inaccurate.
I'm running out of names for that advent, so here's the last one, I'm sorry but you're just too semantically demanding. So here goes - Springtime of the Peoples
As for the rest. Are you seriously claiming that there were no uprisings or revolutions since 1850? Brother, I'm sure you can do some better research.
Or are you looking for something more spectacular, the full-blown worldwide revolution, and anything smaller than that is just too futile for your taste.
