Disagree strongly. The main reason is one needs to understand how much leverage you can gain by successfully playing very risky far-out-of-the-money call/put options, but also that the volume on stocks (and derivatives) like $TLSA is insane, and millions are being traded in it every single minute.
$TSLA OTM call/put options with the right tweet could easily make someone millions, and the liquidity and open volume is crazy enough on them that it'd be very hard to be found out. If that isn't good enough, you could post rumors and tweets beforehand to cause many others to also buy in, and there would be no way to reasonably separate who was behind it and who just joined in on it.
For example:
1) Tweet as Elon musk "Very good TSLA news coming up"
2) many more people buy calls, including yourself
3) Tweet as Elon musk "TSLA earning are going to beat by so much"
4) sell your calls for puts
5) Tweet very negative/offensive/terrible content
