He has certainly figured out how to be everywhere. Those who find him unlikable love talking about him just like his fans.

It used to be fun to disabuse others of the Tony Stark facade. It’s not as rewarding these days, now that everyone knows he’d grab a monkey by the tit

I’d like to filter him out, but writers can’t seem to stop writing “Elon Musks SpaceX” as if we had to be reminded every time who owns the thing. Imagine every time we talk about Apple we put Tim Cook in front of it

There’s always at least one “All the Elon haters going to love this” type of cope comment in every post regarding him on the service.

Well I mean he's interesting as a case study, his decisions have real world implications and it seems like he's on a path to a meltdown that many people would love to witness in real time

Fediverse is very tech inclined, like Reddit is. So there’s a higher proportion of tech Bros compared to places like Tumblr.

I suspect there’s a disproportionately high number of users on the fediverse because of this decisions with X

A lot of people once upon a time trully believed the guy, so there’s a lot who ended up feeling as having been swindled as they figured out more about the man and how most of his promises and his portrayals of the products of his investments were scam-artist bullshit, and that’s a pretty strong feeling that transcends mere dislike.

Then there was a stage when only the most rabid fanboys still believed the guy and, man, those are infuriating usefull idiots with a cult-like view and fast and rabid at coming to defense of the guy. Those types along with TSLA small investors desperately pumping their stock like it was some kind of Muskcoin, did a lot more to turn Musk dislike into hate of him and his companies than they did to make people like and trust the man and his businesses.

And then as the cherry on top of the cake, came his coming out of the closet as a far-right nutter.

So it’s kinda understandable that many don’t just merelly dislike Elon Musk, they detest him, detest his cult members, detest the greed assholes pumping Musk-shit-stocks and thus genuinelly enjoy seeing the cunt directly or indirectly get shafted.

Thanks!

Plus there’s better cars.

Yeah it’s not the status symbol it used to be.

Yes, to me Tesla switched from the most desirable car to the least desirable one, exactly because he turned out to be a cunt.

Also in California I see more interest in other electric cars. There are tons of Teslas, but pretty much all new EVs (with temporary license plates) seem to be different brands.

Yeah it’s funny how these rich babies frame it as being attacked when it’s literally people responding with their money to the immature shitfest.

Not spending money on an asshole isn’t revenge, it’s people making an educated fiscal choice

They are also dumping Tesla.

.

The problem is that he placed people who are loyal to him on that board a long time ago. That’s how he took control over Tesla and kicked out its original founders to begin with.

They should have done that a year ago when he bought Twitter. Now it’s too late - the momentum of Tesla’s demise will not be stopped even if they get rid of Musk.

Tesla’s ‘board’ is like his brother, his mom and Peter Thiel. World is governed by vain, fragile, egomaniacs

And markets them in a way that makes them even more unsafe to other people in their vicinity.

Yeah I get the whole “no model year” thing to a degree. It’s exactly the sort of shit you’d think of as disruptive if you were him. But there’s a reason the auto industry does it. It’s convenient to put in minor changes once a year and major changes every five or so. It keeps the car modern, new, and easy to figure out what parts you need. You just know the model year of your car because it’s regularly convenient to know

they really need a major bodystyle update across the whole line.

Sometimes we judge a book by more than its cover.
