Musk is perhaps the least partisan public figure I know of; everyone on the left seems to assume he's a right winger because he doesn't subscribe to left-wing orthodoxy, so he must be one of the Bad Other Guys.
TBH it seems clear to me that he is a closeted libertarian who can't safely express his views in full without alienating huge segments of his mostly-red autoworker base or his mostly-blue techworker base.
It's a difficult tightrope to walk in the current ongoing partisan culture brawl.
