No company would exist with major budgetary support from the government.
Energy is subsidised, roads exist, international commerce, the internet, laws, money.

That is an extremely expansive definition of "budgetary support."
The commenter you're replying to was obviously talking about direct government payment for SpaceX services and direct government rebates for Tesla (and other electric car) customers, not infrastructure investments.
It's 'social' and 'media' which are completely different operating environments.
Twitter is long, long established as another company.
The 'user base' of Twitter is entirely different kind of customer.
He has no 'big government subsidies' to rely on, aka neither Tesla nor Space X would exist without major budgetary support from Big Gov.
I suggest Twitter under Elon may be more profitable. Or different in some other way as well, but I'll give it only 25% chance it becomes like you're suggesting.
