I think it's because what he's trying to make are high on a lot of peoples priorities, morally. I like Tesla as a battery company. I like Space-X. I want to root for the guy. I wish he wouldn't do things like this... But I'm really rooting for him to go get funding and to put out the exact same tweet with no intent on following through.

But like, he isn't Tesla. He isn't SpaceX. I agree that those are cool companies and I'm happy that they exist, but any ultrarich dude could have put up the startup capital for them. They could ditch him and be just fine. They're both profitable, they don't need his charity to survive, and his leadership is dragging their reputation down.
