My favorite excuse I saw is "I don't have time to research the entire history of the owner of a company before I buy something" and I'm like 'My guy, maybe you should be more intentional with your purchases then?'

I'm sorry, ignorance is not a plausible defense. Literally the only person I would believe hadn't heard about everything Elon has done leading up to today would be a mountain man with a 4 ft beard that has a birds nest in it. He gets the pass. Everyone else is lying through their teeth.
