    Not sure about the strategy of naming it after one guy. It’s a wider problem and it plays into the victimhood narrative the MAGA cunts like to wallow in.

      Elon Musk is important to target. He’s not beloved, he’s constantly in the news, and he’s a perfect encapsulation of the undue power being given to the ultra rich.

      And frankly no one needs to care whether something stimulates MAGA counts. They’re always going to be at max simulation and won’t be swayed because we accounted for their feelings.

      Regular people, on the other hand, don’t give a shit if an individual ultra wealthy and obnoxious man gets personally targeted while he’s actively messing around with the government. He’s a fantastic target just chock full of personality traits that kill sympathy.
