It can be one of three scenarios IMO:
A: Elon is being particularly dumb and actually produced and distributed drugs with his logo.
B: The Trump Regime created and planted these drugs to manufacture a reason to prosecute Elon.
C: Some drug distributor is a huge fan of SpaceX, or wants to deflect investigation away from their other operations.
...the world being the way it is, all three seems pretty damn plausible to me. 😕
D: They're branding their coke the same way that MDMA pill pressers will stamp real logos on their product to market it (without permission, of course). They usually don't do this with coke, but it's not unheard of.
It's D

I remember this from Pablo Francisco's Mitsubishi Ecstasy story hehe

I used to put Mario stickers on the mushroom bags that I never sold.

So you say... We all know how Nintendo would deal with snitches
I assumed it was elons personal stache for parties and shit
I figure it's a bit more like option C, with a bit of knockoff mentality going on. You know how you can find pictures online of super cheap knockoff merch from like China or some African countries? That's what I'm thinking is going on here.
Probably C. Elon would be more into ketamine than cocaine.
It's a week's supply for his basic bitch business major execs
