Elon Musk got the stick for being outspoken and disagreeing with elements of a quasi-religious ideology (disregarding his further radicalization following that event). ESG doesn't "do what it says on the tin", there would be no significant backlash if it did. And it's just ridiculous to claim that mean tweets from a CEO outweigh the huge environmental impact of Tesla to the point that Exxon is/was ranked higher by ESG metrics. This absurd gaslighting and word-twisting does not work anymore which is why ESG, DEI and the like are being rejected.
