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.

For anyone wondering, Teslas market cap is roughly $500 billion and Ford is ~$50 billion.
There is no way Tesla is worth 10 times what Ford is.
Ford's total revenue last year was $176 billion and Tesla's was $96 billion.
Also, Ford makes a butt load more models and units than Tesla. Tesla has, what, 4 models? Teslas stock price is ridiculous
The number of models is irrelevant, sales are what matter.
I'd say it is. Making a new model car requires a lot of investments, setting up supply chains and what not. Ford has done a shit tonne of that AND sold factors more cars than tesla. It may not be the main point of critique, but it definitely counts
