"That is, they seek to define signal for hundreds of millions of the rest of us."

When you distill everything down, this, I think, is really the driving force of it all.

Musk is a "free speech absolutist" as long as your worldview aligns with his. Comedy/parody is okay as long as he's not the punchline, and so on. It must be an incredible dissonance to try and manage, and getting what appears to be frankly terrible advice from the Paypal Mafia (and it's groupies) is just making a bad scene worse.
