> Why is Musk be loud about his politics worse than other billionaires being quiet but equally active in the political scene?

Musk's involvement is on the level of e.g. Rupert Murdoch or the Adelsons. It's well beyond even most billionaires' political activities.

In the same way that murderers should get some credit for opening people's eyes to the reality that there are other murderers.
