It blocks these:

Block List

Steve Ballmer
Jeff Bezos
Michael Bloomberg
Sergey Brin
Warren Buffett
Larry Ellison
Bill Gates
Kanye "Ye" West
Elon Musk
Larry Page
Donald Trump
Mark Zuckerberg

Immediate observation: really cool, also blocks comments about Elon Musk (including my own lol) Sadly doesn't block images

Fraudulent car
Fraudulent train
Low-poly cosplay truck
Animal abuse brain microchip
Kepler syndrome ISP
Self-destructing rocket to mars
Social media for Nazis?

The car is fine, and honestly the software is too, it's the label that's the problem. It's like if Tesla had invented the first really good cough medicine but named it "Death Cure Resurrection Elixir (and cough preventative)" and they have this mustache twirling clown villain selling it.
