I think what's really happening is some people got used to going to the food court at the mall and every option being McDonalds.....now they got some Chick Fil A, Chipotle, and Panda Express and are completely bewildered by it and maybe accidentally call it all "Vegan" because they don't really understand the new and different foods just yet.  :)

But then again you might just literally be talking about the "X" brand/logo and the "Twitter" brand/logo.....in which case my analogy may not make complete sense

What Elon is giving people already existed before he bought Twitter, and that is a social media platform that caters to the right wing and uses the concept of "free speech" in it's marketing.  He bought Twitter for a premium price and then changed it to resemble something that he could have made himself or purchased for a much lower price.  You don't buy a brand so you can completely alter it, you either buy a brand that is within the scope of the one you want to make/promote, or you start your own.

Elon could have made what he has right now from scratch or purchased Parler and called it X from day 1.
