Why is Musk be loud about his politics worse than other billionaires being quiet but equally active in the political scene? It's good to know where these people stand.

There's a difference between being loud and purchasing a seat at the table.

All the others purchased seats too, they just keep quiet about it.

The quiet billionaires put up something they care a great deal about. Musk's nonsenses in the US can be interpreted many ways but his screwing Germany and the UK with his incoherent stoner thoughts is basically letting off steam at everyone's expense because a lot of people are too stupid to understand how compartmentalized success is and that he doesn't necessarily even know who he is talking about.

Multiple things can be bad at the same time. Those other billionaires are off topic in a post about Tesla. Musk isn't.

Musk's involvement is on the level of e.g. Rupert Murdoch or the Adelsons. It's well beyond even most billionaires' political activities.

I'm not denying that. I think it might open some people's eyes to the reality that we live in.

In the same way that murderers should get some credit for opening people's eyes to the reality that there are other murderers.
