yet another example of media sophistry.

Sophistry is reasoning that seems right but is actually meant to mislead or trick people

typical bullshit, framing a few examples of what the wanker Musks says, into a "black or white", "them against us", Vaxers or anti-vaxers, rich or poor, scenario with no middle ground.

Trying to manipulate and influence the outcome and keep people who are already angry, more angry, angry equals clicks.

There is not, and will not be a civil war, its just poor reporting shit.

Its not news its an opinion

Agreed, but that doesn't make Mr Musk's ravings harmless. He is a powerful man, promoting deranged violent fantasies. It could cause harm. Arguably already has, see the last event where he addressed the crowds over video.
