    “Xitter,” pronounced “Shitter”

    Xitter ! love it, now lexicon

    Usage: Can’t wait to watch Xitter (pronounced Zit - ter) pop after Musk wrecks the train.

      I’ve always read X as a “sh” adjacent sound so Xitter basically reads like “shitter” to me.

            So it’s probably more specific to “xi”, and not x by itself ;)

      Shitter is probably the best name for it I have heard so far.

    Musk looks more and more unhinged in each successive pic i see of him. Countdown to OD?

    He is turning himself into a comical evil villain. Next he’ll be explicitly his evil plan to 007.

    Elmo Musk is a flaming POS, but this is rage bait. This happens automatically due to a change they made to their profile. They just had to re-verify.

    I despise Musk, but I also despise clickbait journalism.

      Do you have a source for this? I’ve looked but haven’t found anything.

    It’s as if he’s censoring them.

    Yikes, that thumbnail. Musk is literally a neckbeard now? He must be leaning into it.

      It’s literally kept in this community so people can easily block it…

        Is that the actual purpose? I genuinely assumed it was just an incredible irony

          It doesn’t always work but yea, people all over Lemmy started to complain about all the posts covering Twitter and Reddit so many of them are in dedicated communities now. I actually like to watch Musk fuck up so unbelivably every few days but others don’t and that’s a good compromise if you ask me!

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.
