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.

I would argue that knowingly pushing out incomplete driving software does count for physically hurting people.
What's the term... it's on the tip of my tongue? Malicious incompetence? Knowing that you're fucking up something, but not caring even in cases where its failure could have serious/life threatening consequences, and playing it off as a fluke, mistake, or silly misunderstanding?
"I am a deadly threat to (...) humans" - Elon Musk, 2025
Elon just do it.
Max. 1 year in the office before shareholders start calling him back.
Idk if I've ever encountered anyone who had a larger prosecution complex than this twat. MF was born on, not on third base, but on home plate FFS and he's still a fucking a loser. Pathetic.
Hell yeah June (Western Kabuki podcast).
Also I don't believe any of this psychopaths when they're playing uwu I'm just a smol bean baby, this is the guy who keeps going out of his way to champion having less empathy.
So you feel morally justified destroying people's Teslas because you don't like Musk?
Musk helped save those stranded astronauts, but yet he's a monster.
Musk has a company that's working on neuralnet chips to help paraplegics. But that doesn't count ?
While the social crusaders would rather see us plunged into WW3 so they can tell conservatives "I told you so" rather than see Trump settle the Ukraine/Russia war.
People vandalizing and destroying Tesla's on the dealer lot or even people's privately owned vehicles, because they feel it's their civic duty to ruin people's lives, despite those Tesla owners most likely being liberals, but yet they're the tolerant party. Because Musk made a "siege heil" gesture that has been misperceived. Mostly because he is associated with Trump.
"Dogequest" site owners doxxing and intimidating Tesla owners to change parties and sell their Teslas to prove their allegiance isn't fascist like at all. Not to mention condoning the vandalism.
One idiot managed to set himself on fire with his own Molotov cocktails in an attempt to destroy Tesla charging stations.
Several others were caught on the onboard cameras keying Teslas and those same people were arrested and charged afterwards.
That's alright. Keep thinking that you're the morally justified crusaders while using "J6" as leverage, just more pathetic displays of extreme human behavior. Possibly on a more depraved level than those you protest.
The people hurting others are accusing Musk of hurting others. The irony is thick.
Ngl lil bro I really don’t gaf and I’m not reading all of that ❤️
My philosophy is that it isn't wrong to hate the hater. If you are a miserable bastard who's sole tenant in life is to be a hateful bully then you deserve to be called out on it and you don't deserve one iota of respect. My two go to questions in life with hateful people are 1. What is your fucking hang up? 2. Are you a baby? Most hateful people are so ill informed and trapped in their echo chambers with the blinders on that they've never asked themselves those questions. Force them to self reflect.
Apparently it only counts if you hurt people physically. Hurting their finances, support systems, healthcare, employment prospects are all fine.
I find it telling he had the self awareness to add that caveat, but in typical fashion, couldn't follow the train of thought far enough to arrive at the logical conclusion. "I've taken away safety nets from the people, most are one paycheck short of being on the streets with nothing to lose, but what's up with all these threats!?"
I've never physically hurt anyone.
This is called a suspiciously specific denial.
Like saying "I was never convicted for shooting anyone in the head with a 9mm."
The full quote is even worse.
My companies make great products that people love and I’ve never physically hurt anyone.
So why the hate and violence against me?
Because I am a deadly threat to the woke mind parasite and the humans it controls.
So basically he's saying - "I never harm anyone...the left only hates me because I'm a deadly threat to them (and that thing I made up to dismiss everything they say)"
Also, just wanna point out he's definitely killed/is killing people.
I like how Bill Burr calls him: "the Twitter guy" I bet that hurts his ego more than fElon etc
