Cyberstuck

It's very frustrating to me. I bought a used Model 3 back in 2019 for like 35k. I'm not rich.

I know a guy who bought a Cybertruck. He makes around $140k a year which is better than most but still nowhere near what I would call "rich." Was it a stupid decision? Yeah. Does he support Trump or Musk personally? No. He saw the launch announcement, put in a reservation years ago, and went ahead with it when he got his chance because he was hyped about it for his own personal aesthetic reasons. That people think he's somehow to blame for Musk is stupid. That someone might damage his car, costing repairs he can't really afford because he spent it all on a stupid large car loan, but forcing him to pay Musk even more to get it repaired is so amazingly dumb that I can't actually comprehend the thought process.

Some people with Cybertrucks are probably a part of the problem. Some are just people who got hyped. But in this thread are people who unironically claim that buying a Cybertruck is supporting a Nazi while they themselves pay for Amazon Prime, use Gmail, own an Oculus, eat Nestle products, and buy gas at Exxon.

It just feels weird that this car is the line people draw. I guess because it's expensive, but when you look at how much some of those big luxury trucks cost you've almost certainly seen more expensive ones on the road more frequently than you've seen Cybertrucks.
