It might not be. I've never liked Elon, a view that was truly cemented during the "pedo guy" incident. In the past that meant I just ignored fawning articles or comment threads about this modern "Tony Stark" as I knew any critical comments would result in a pile-on from his supporters. Conversely, herds are gonna herd, and Musk fans are probably a lot less vocal these days compared to the days of peak Elon hero worship.
