Cuban AFAIK is not advocating for what is happening. His statement seems to acknowledge that Musk is fucking things up.
The point of asking you "what would you do in their position" is to see if you have an honest alternative for what a wealthy, high profile person could do to help the laid off 18F workers (and the country) in the short term, or if you're throwing stones at Cuban because it's an easy dunk.
I think there are good answers to the question like "Publicly fund and back anti-Trump politicians in Texas" or "Advocate for changes to the constitutional structure that enshrine the existence of independent agencies" or "buy a newspaper and go against the other demigods of America" or "buy every liberal in Texas a gun". That last one is a joke. Kinda.
