Musk's tweet came in after a meme on YouTube's policy against people swearing as opposed to when there are "obvious scam ads all over their site."
Now, people on the microblogging website are asking the Tesla owner and CEO to buy the video-sharing platform. It should be noted that when it comes to Musk, there is no telling whether he is joking or being serious. His followers live for this.
Here is what people had to say:
Once you learn about their free speech policies, you may try to buy them too ?

Ever since you announced you were going to fight for free speech and also maybe vote republican, their algorithm is targeting you/your companies. Try typing "Telsa Model 3" and watch all the top videos with reasons "not to buy", although most owners that I know are happy with it.

Totally. You should buy it and install some real management that supports free speech and knows how to lead engineering teams to identify and stop scams.

That's weird
Elon Musk is known to push his followers' buttons to stir up conversations, and it is impossible to determine whether he is serious or joking. His one tweet has the power to make or break stocks.
In the year 2021, Musk tweeted in favour of dogecoin several times which led to the meme cryptocurrency's value going up and down in the next few months.
On 4th Feb 2021, he tweeted something about dogecoin which sent its price flying nearly 10% within just an hour and over 50% within a day.

This was followed by another tweet on 28th April 2021, in which he referred to himself as the "dogefather". Dogecoin's prices surged as much as 30% after this.

On 14th December 2021, the SpaceX CEO announced that his electric car maker company Tesla would trial run accepting dogecoin for merchandise. This hiked up the meme cryptocurrency's price up by 43% over the next two hours.
