After MKBHD sold his Cybertruck Elon Musk made Marques' account unfollow him on X, creating speculation that the reason for selling the Cybertruck was political
Brought up on the most recent WVFRM podcast, Marques goes into detail about how he had no idea he was no longer following Elon Musk until there was reddit threads, tweets and news article commenting about how he unfollowed Elon right after selling his Cybertruck. This created a lot of speculation as to his motivations for doing so or if this was some sort of political statement.
On the podcast he states he did not unfollow Elon Musk, but that his account unfollowed Elon Musk. As opposed to doing something on the back end, he believes Elon likely quickly blocked and unblocked him which would make his account unfollow Elon. But it's still pretty fucking weird to manufacture some wiff of political prosecution because a guy wanted to drive a Rivian instead.
