I think it's because he's clearly a villain like Trump, and there is clearly a different legal system for him, like Trump.

Nobody who has lived like him and wasn't a billionaire would get security clearance. People focus on him because he's out here Saying The Quiet Parts Out Loud, and so he's a really good one to focus on if you're trying to make a point about corporations and their love of fascism and hate of actual capitalism and competition.

What can I say? Everyone hates a hypocrite, especially one who uses his power to shove his hypocrite-ass in everyone's face. Like all hypocrites with power, he does it to show everyone he has power to get away with what you can't. People do tire of that, and they would like to see this fucking prick strung up by his fucking neck by people who have actually faced real suffering in their lives, who finally got sick of his fat whiny baby bitch ass.

Ignoring him certainly wouldn't make him go away, and it's a good thing to have more and more people waking up to the fact that the rich aren't any smarter or more capable than us, and Musk is a perfect example. They have created a media ecosystem which praises the rich as somehow better than the average person, but the reality is they just had money, power, and connections. They aren't smart, they aren't capable, they aren't brilliant, they are just as shortsighted and stupid as the fucking rest of us, and it's helpful to be able to point at people who really exemplify that, like Musk.

What can I say, it's helpful to have a Free Speech Warrior who clearly only cares about his speech. It makes it easier to open people's eyes to how fucked our entire society is for handing the keys to the kingdom to these fucking idiots to begin with.

Further, almost nobody would say the same thing about people bitching about, say, Rupert Murdoch, but there's plenty of people who watch Murdoch's moves as well, because he also owns right-wing media companies that intend to massage the narrative to the right-wing "reality." I heard the names like Murdoch, Bill O'Reilly, and Tucker Carlson thrown around and complained about for years before Musk became a target because of his shenanigans. Nobody says "people are obsessed with Carlson!"
