    Always thought it was pretty silly that a good portion of the musk spam on reddit was from a sub called “enough musk spam”, and now it’s here too. Name seems kind of backwards doesn’t it?

      I always assumed the “musk spam” they’re referring to is all the “isn’t Musk a genius?!” wank off spam that was probably more common when that sub started

        I guess that’s the case. Otherwise the sub serves to stop spamming shit about Musk in general, in which case… what do we post here? Lol

          Back then when the sub was created, every technology-relared sub were always filled with “Musk did this” or “Musk said that”. They were spammed with Musk and Twitter-related topics. They created the sub specifically so people can post those articles there and not spam the normal subs.

            But literally all it did was create yet another place, and now they’re just another musk circlejerk sub creating more musk threads, completely defeating the purpose.

      That’s not specific to Musk…

      Any sub named “enough_____spam” was/is just a place to go and hate on _____
