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.
A cache of newly released documents from the Epstein files on Friday showed Elon Musk apparently corresponded with the convicted sex offender in 2012 and 2013, as they discussed meeting at Jeffrey Epstein’s private island and at Musk’s SpaceX facility in Southern California.
The emails indicate Musk asked about attending the “wildest party,” hosted by Epstein at his island.
Here's the reply
God! He even writes like the cringiest of redditors. "epic vacation", "thank you good sir". What a sad, desperate little man.
Edit: turns out that apparently this one's fake, according to a lemmist on another thread.
That's not a real email, for the record. This one specifically is a joke
Why is G's email address redacted?
Dug this back up
It's okay, but I don't think Bill Gates has been proven to ever visit the island, so far. He's done some shady shit for sure, but the island seems like a special kind of evil place reserved for people like Prince Andrew and Commerce Secretary Lutnick.
Bill's done plenty of criminal shit. Not just shady. There are plenty connected powerful people implicated. Including most surrounding this administration. There's a club and we aren't in it. But most of them are. Including Bill. Yeah he's not known for chasing under age girls. That's a low bar. The fact that Epstein's exploitation whs practically an open secret for decades. Good or innocent people didn't associate with him. And anyone that did wasn't. Certain not Gates, Clinton, or even Chomsky.
Imagine a money laundry honey pot doesn't imagine you are worth attention. Elon must be super awkward
