It's so creepy that there is a Twitter account out there which has publicly confessed to be intentionally spreading hostile news for the purpose of feeding confirmation bias as a social media experiment and that the stories they are pushing are turning out to manipulate the news cycle to the extent that it does. It's actually disgusting, how successful they are.
The entire movement is so suspect when you look at its loudest people. A bunch of Twitter accounts, many of them intentionally anonymized with troll names, and photoshopped images of Elon Musk as their profile picture. Hundreds upon hundreds of retweets of each other. Then mocking nearly every Musk twitter post with whataboutisms to drag audience to their filter bubble.
Here is raw data about Tesla sales compared to the sales of every other electric vehicle manufacturer for the last several years:

All the anti-musk/tesla rhetoric gets upvoted to the top even when it's blatant misinformation and right wing propaganda talking points. That's why I take all these comments with a grain of salt. I doubt all these are legit comments. There could be one person with dozens of accounts, it's not difficult to use a vpn to cover your tracks
