It is.

Musk has done enough questionable things that his detractors really don't need to lie about him.

But they do lie about him, as the emerald story is much more salacious than the truth of his upbringing, in which there is no real evidence he had wealthy parents, and absolutely no suggestion he was ever given seed money by them to start his companies.

Attack Musk for the truth of his flaws. Attack him for being the wealthiest man in the world while paying zero tax. For being an anti-union employer. But spreading this emerald nonsense only diminishes the credibility of those who repeat the lie.
