How is he even allowed to be CEO of Tesla making tweets like that. SEC should have banned him from being CEO for stock manipulation

It might have been within his legal authority to determine the number of shares printed, whether there is a regular dividend, and when it can be paid. Public trading might be regarded as a Ponzi scheme. But, careful use of math would ideally leave a certain amount of "float".

He "diluted" Tesla shares over time. Every person who works for Tesla gets Tesla shares. That means that shares are continually being created, for employees. Musk also took stock bonuses which stipulated dilution (aka the creation of shares worth X amount of $). The board for Tesla cut this practice off in 2017 when Elon's contract renewed. He pushed for it, they said no.
So every time someone buys into Tesla, they are buying less with that money than they would have at any earlier point because stocks are constantly being created out of thin air. If the value goes up rather than down with that kind of tactic, guess what happens to Tesla's value? He rode a tech wave to the bank, mostly with savvy marketing.

From a technical perspective, how hard is it, to keep a bot net or troll farm from commenting.
I would offer the choice between paid subscription to cover your own bandwidth, or targeted advertising.
And, you are allowed to say anything, which does not constitute a threat against persons or property.
In general, prevailing norms are enough to handle all of the supposed revolutionaries. So, I question whether they are crisis actors.
Can't everyone be lawful?
I would be foolish enough to take the job of admin / owner.

I mean the SEC came close

Maybe at the First National Bank of Billionares and Old White Men does a savings account pay anywhere near what he's claiming.

Even the rates on CDs are a pittance compared to the old days. Rates on savings accounts and CDs are never coming back either, regardless of what the Fed rate is. The banks know they don't have to give it anymore.
