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.

Literally every single day we have idiots telling us that we aren't allowed to enjoy news articles.

Downvote "Downvote Musk spam" spam. The lemmy user doesn't need your help ensuring their comments stay in the 24 hour news cycle.

Uh oh, sounds like a musk fanboy got upset by spam. I'm glad I could help you understand how everyone else feels.

Don't get me wrong lmao I despise Elionnaire Husk. I just want to know exactly why, so if someone asks me, I have a good answer.
