I'm cautiously optimistic. Either way, him pimping free speech is better than Trump doing it, and I think it's pretty obvious how the Deep State feels about him right now. Could be a Deep State ploy, but if it is, I think it's backfiring, and will continue to do so. Remember, if nothing can stop what is coming, then any move the Deep State makes only hastens their demise. Think: quicksand. You're stuck and you're gonna sink one way or another. The more you panic, the faster you sink. Simple as that.
Also helps with the left loving him (or used to) for making Electric Vehicles cool and "affordable." Their gaurds weren't up when he came out full free speech, if it was Trump, they would be fighting WAAY harder to keep their control.
I think of Musk as a wild card. I don't trust him, BUT he has been fucking the establishment pretty spectacularly, I do respect him in that regard. I'd say it comes down to how many rabbit holes someone has gone down that makes them believe if he's a white/black hat. He's had a shady past, and you don't become the world's richest person (in public view) without doing some extra shady crap.
In the simplest of terms, it's an "Enemy of my enemy is my friend" type situation for myself.
He was born in South Africa. Wish I knew more about how South Africans tend to view the world. Seems to me that Musk is “a-political.” Here’s a biography: https://www.biography.com/business-figure/elon-musk .
Former black hat with strings cut is my bet.
Could be possible for sure.

Elon is not a sure bet either way. Putin does not trust him for what its worth.

How about a grey hat... Don't be such a cishatter.
At best a white hat and at worst a gray hat. The left has attacked him. I tend to lean towards a white hat.
