Been speculated for a while there's, at best, some very proactive Tesla defenders trying to flag any bad news. And at worst someone who made bots to automate such a process. If you're stalking new, you only need a dozen or so flags to trip off the auto-flagging.

Dang hasn't really commented anything supporting nor negating such a theory.

The stock up probably comes more from rumors (nothing explicitly stated except offhand by trump) that Elon is stepping down as head of DOGE. translation: they are making use of some contract terms for Musk to GTFO for both their sakes.

dang is famous for censoring anything even slightly critical of Musk and Tesla.
