....is that legal? That feels like paying people for votes, and I'm like...80% sure that's illegal?

No where does it say you only get the money if you vote.

Also, it's a response to Musk who did the same thing but more hateful.

I don't even understand his petition. It's hardly asking for any change. Just saying if you support the first and second amendment. I'm not seeing the point... Am I missing the subtext?

It's a response to Elon paying people $47 to get signatures on a petition from voters in swing states. It's parody/satire but also serious to a degree

Nowhere do they actually require anyone to vote or to vote a specific way

They're paying people to apologize for not voting in 2020, which does not include them voting in the next election.
