Musk is a shithead but not, to our knowledge, an agent of a foreign hostile government.

Correct. On Monday, he's going to be an agent to a domestic hostile government.

Almost all Lemmy users who happen to be in the US have been blessed so far with a government that generally is okay-ish, has some justice built in, and leaves them alone as long as they're not doing anything wrong. I think that might be about to change, and they're about to experience a China-style "you really have to be careful not to cross the powerful people" system instead.
