I would rephrase it to "political propaganda machine dislikes and distrusts Musk". It is telling that Tesla was not invited to the EV summit or that or was removed from S&P 500 ESG.
Depends which political propaganda machine you are talking about: the one that is outraged at their speakers husband being hit by a hammer or the one flately making stuff up to justify that attack.
P.S. I am not an US citizen so I couldn't care less, but when "my" party over here would defend a guy who breaks into someone's home and hit an old man with an hammer because of — you name it — political propaganda I would pause for a moment and revaluate whether I am still who I think I was.
Why do you feel a need to defend political propaganda? Did you not just try to show that it is instrumental? If anything I guess you agree that there is this top down attack on Musk. Well, he became so influential that shady political interests are in play.
> because of — you name it — political propaganda I would pause for a moment and revaluate whether I am still who I think I was.
We don't know why Pelosi's husband was attacked. The guy who attacked him appears to be left wing (nudist activist, pro lgbt, he made hemp jewelry, and was a member of the green party). Pelosi appears to have said the attacker was his friend on the police call.
Some people don’t like elevating leaders who openly flout and degrade our culture’s expectations of how leaders behave. Some of those are silly, of course, but some of them are not. For example, a leader should be knocked down a few notches if they’re calling rescue workers pedophiles for no reason. They should be knocked down a few more for impregnating their employees. They should be knocked down for throwing childish insults at their business associates.
Nothing to do with politics and everything to do with not wanting to live in a world where all of these things become the norm.

We just don't know enough to say it is political.
