Elon Musk is a person with both tech influence and now political influence. His alt accounts have influence as well and are therefore relevant.

But why this one? How do you pick a random Twitter account to check if it's Elon's sock puppet?

Surely there must have been a reason to specifically check this one?

It's not random, that particular account has been suspected of being an Elon alt for years for the same suspicious reasons.

It's extremely sycophantic, even for a Musk stan. Its voice and speech mannerisms are uncannily similar.
