Yeah the only way to kill a troll is to… just stop talking to/about them. They feed off the negativity of others - Elon likes it when people increase the stock price of his company, and allow him to sell the userbase to advertising firms, so every single word of this just makes the Musk all that much stronger. Every. Single. Word.

It saddens me a little when I see people that I like still using the bird corpse. Harry is empowering Elon by burning him.

This only works if everybody follows that rule.
In real life, some of this shit gain critical mass, and afterward, ignoring it would give it even more platform by leaving it uncontested.

First off, Elon isn’t the guy who goes on Lemmy repeating clichés he’s heard and accepted as fact without ever questioning… is it even true? Or applicable? Sorry, but I think I’ll go with Mark Twain and Voltaire on this one: the best way to deal with a narcissist is to let the air out of their ego and slam them with satire, exposing them for the idiots they actually are.
Elon isn’t going to disappear just because you dare not speak his name. He’s far too busy blowing up billions of dollars of taxpayer money while his mindless fanboys gargle musk and cheer.

Unpopular opinion, but making fun of people’s name is the lowest form of criticism. It just comes across as a bit juvenile and pathetic, like you’re making fun of a kid in a classroom. Elon Musk is an extreme far right nazi sympathising piece of shit, calling him stupid names just kind of trivialises that, imho.
