On Facebook there is lots of SpaceX propaganda, I’m sure that’s not the only platform. Previously I commented criticizing something they were doing (I forget what), and I got a comment supposedly from one of the Musk children. Recently I posted a question about Starship, saying

“Any plans to return any martian explorers back home to earth? Did we get that far yet?”

And I got exactly 2 thumbs up. From ‘CEO of SpaceX’  
, and ‘CEO Em Reeves musk’.

How likely am I to be on my way to the El Salvador concentration camp.

Who is **Em** Reeves Musk? Those seem like fake account names. If you get a message saying they want to send you money, but you have to first pay a fee/tax, I would not be surprised.

There are a tremendous number of Elon Musk-themed scam bots on various social media sites, usually involved in some kind of cryptocurrency scam. It’s been that way for years.
