Literally every single day we have idiots doing Musk’s PR work for free.
Downvote Musk spam. The billionaire doesn’t need your help ensuring his businesses stay in the 24 hour news cycle.
Normally I would agree with you. But some of these comments here are dark humor gold, so I'm conflicted.
Sorry...
Another prime example of how shitposting has ruined the internet. Who gives a shit if someone has a funny comment if the content is literally degrading the quality of this channel, lemmy, and the greater internet.
If seeing the words "Elon Musk" really degrades your internet experience that much, maybe the internet isn't for you. Unfortunately, he's a billionaire, and he will be in the media until he dies.
He’s in social media so much because of the people that are obsessed with him like OP, not the people that are tired of mindless peons inadvertently propping him up.
There’s a whole list of billionaires that aren’t posted about every hour. There’s absolutely no reason to obsess over this guy.
That's exactly my point: he's one of the richest and most prominent people on the planet (something that I too dislike). People posting about him are not going anywhere because of his status.
HUMOR ISN'T FUNNY!
