The payment is for an unrelated action that only someone voting for your candidate would agree with.

Supporting free speech and gun rights (literally all the petition says) is something only a Trump voter would agree with?

You think Musk supports free speech in any way, form or shape?

Didn't say that.

But the petition is being sold here as "pledging to vote for Trump". which it plainly isn't. It's also been sold in this Lemmy thread as paying voters to sign a petition that only Trump voters would ever agree to sign.

The petition that allegedly only Trump voters would ever agree to sign, only states that you support free speech and gun rights. Whether or not I think Musk actually genuinely supports those things (I don't) is irrelevant, that's what the actual petition says.
