How many people tell Musk he's wrong every day? From reading social media, probably around a million! Heck, just look at the replies to his Twitter posts.

The millions of people on social media are not the one surrounding Musk and having his ear.

Let's say there are a 100 people who actually interact with him in a professional context. Those are the ones that are yes men.

That’s not the same thing at all. The original comment was clearly talking about people who work directly for him, whom he has the power to fire on the spot.
