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.

I don’t care to create an X account to verify this myself, but Newsweek says it’s fake: https://www.newsweek.com/fake-elon-musk-post-tesla-stop-war-draft-dodgers-viral-11650817.

Yeah, I couldn't find the tweet on his account on nitter at all.

This looks like a fake, deep fried, AI generated slop

But it also kinda seems like something he might say in the future.

[–] atopi@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 day ago

who would ever use AI for something that can be created in a minute with inspect element

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 4 points 2 days ago

Deep fried, more like half baked.

Thanks for the heads up. Not that I would ever buy a vehicle that that Nazi moron had any sway over, but maybe some people will stop paying for his personal RC cars as a result

[–] Redvenom@retrolemmy.com 9 points 1 day ago

that's an amazing selling point for Tesla, not just that your apocalypse car can't survive a carwash, but it will snitch on you

~~And he states that with pride?~~
~~If you think you own a Tesla, you are delusional. You are only borrowing it.~~

I actually thought this was real. Crazy that Musk is so far gone that it could be possible.

[–] mavu@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

just because he doesn't say it on twatter, it doesn't mean it's not an option :)

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Oh I'm absolutely sure it's possible, there have been numerous stories where Tesla has disabled cars, sometimes for something as stupid as leaving a bad review on the internet!
Which is why I would never have bought a Tesla, even before it became clear that Musk is an insane Nazi.

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

You will not use my Nazi cars to flee for your life you pathetic pleb. They are my cars after all, to do with what I please.

I am also claiming droit du seigneur on all the wives of husbands that drive Tesla. I will impregnate them with my virile seed to start my army of Elons.

[–] kinther@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

I am fairly certain many cars with OnStar can be disabled remotely. Not all of them, but newer ones

[–] Skyrmir@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

If we reach the point where we need to draft someone that still drives a Tesla, we're already fucked.

[–] alekwithak@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

technology shouldn't be used to avoid civic duty.

Like manipulating an election to stay out of prison?

[–] MBech@feddit.dk 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

By that same logic, Teslas can also not be relied on to flee an invasion by USA. Or flee an oppressive USA that has deposed of your democratically elected government and put a nazi government in power.

When will Teslas stop working for people who are critical of billionaires?

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 3 points 2 days ago

When will Teslas stop working for people who are critical of billionaires?

Why just stop working when instead they can lock all the doors and then initiate thermal meltdown of the battery pack?

[–] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Sounds fake, but Elon wouldn't announce this. He would just do it at Trump's bidding.

[–] 9tr6gyp3@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Delete this post, bro

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 1 points 1 day ago

It's great having a crap car. The radio barely works, there ain't no one stopping me.

[–] visch@quokk.au 2 points 2 days ago

Delete this it’s too real.

[–] Mulligrubs@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Hey, let's make a national draft for dollars, and kindly allow Musk to do his civic duty and spread his fortune amongst the rabble

~~That also means if you're persecuted by the government he'll block your tesla if he can.~~ Apparently it's fake, but I'm still gonna advocate for draft dodging.

Draft dodging is a human right. You always have the moral right to not kill. If you think your government will force you into the military and not respect your conscientious objector status, you should have a plan to flee that is not written down and is on foot. Make a laminated card with loved ones' contact info on it (most people should have this anyways) and put it in a go bag with supplies for your journey.

Also, if you don't want to fighr regardless of if you think conscientious objectors will be ignored, begin establishing that status. It's not a "I don't want to fight this fight" thing, it requires a level of establishing. One method is to convert to a religion that mandates nonviolence.

You do not have to fight and you can accept prison instead.
