Things that are surprising me right now (not in order):

• Big Huey is such a non-entity. There are 3 tracks of his (& one collab) on the whole damn internet that I can see. Why did Tesla even bother?
• The video is flattering to the deactivated item. They can afford to lose admirers right now? Why do they feel so safe?
• There are no written records of the lyrics on the internet I could find.
• Why does his label’s website have an offer to “buy a verse”? Dude so unfamous and lacking success he’s trying to sell clout to strangers.
• Yet he owns a cybertruck and has only needed to make a handful of videos over the last 4 years.
• The news wants us to think Tesla is retaliating over a dissenting view, erroneously (?!)

The whole thing reads like a maze of mirrors. At no point does the story make actual sense. Did we really see a jumped-up vanity project get stomped by a mega corp for no actual reason?

What explanation could make this series of events make sense? Is Huey a Tesla plant? Is this a (botched? Who knows) test balloon by the company trying to create a legal precedent for corporate powers to smash all dissent? Then why would they pick a target that was favourable to them? They must not want to prejudice the jury…

I can’t make the pieces all fit. But I feel that it must make complete sense to one of the players.
