Basically, the gist of my post was that it was hilarious watching conservatives cheer on Elon Musk as if he's their conservative savior (regarding Twitter) because I've never thought of Elon Musk as a right-wing conservative superhero, just as he's not anyone's liberal superhero. Elon Musk is for no one else but Elon Musk. Elon Musk is a libertarian because Elon Musk doesn't want to be restricted or regulated in any capacity by the government.

I think your statement "Musk is a libertarian for Musk" is the perfect summation of Elon Musk.
