Can someone explain what makes a Cybertruck owner "a huge douche?" It's just a car, and it's not a eco-catasrophe like a Hummer. I think they're pretty cool and unique looking, personally. Even if you don't like the aesthetic I don't understand the harshness.

Obligatory 'but Elon Musk is a cunt.'

They spent six figures on a truck that looks like ass, drives like ass, can't actually do truck things, falls apart in the rain and is the brainchild of the world's biggest douchebag.

That doesn't make the owner a douchebag. I guess it's viewed as a distasteful accessory? Ok.

I don't understand why I'm being downvoted.

It's the latter that really seals it, IMHO. The Cybertruck is the most purely Elon vehicle to come out of Tesla, and the first since Elon went full mask-off. Buying it, at great personal expense, and driving it around is basically saying you approve of everything he's doing.
