I'd argue that in most cases these people would not be "stans" if they hadn't made money investing in Elon's businesses. They're almost always Tesla stockholders who religiously invest in and benefit financially from every financial move their idol makes. They actively shill Elon's businesses and even Elon himself because they are financially motivated to do so.
