Owning a cybertruck is an indication the driver is a Nazi. It was always an indicator of very poor taste, but now it marks you as a Nazi. Don’t bother trying to change my mind. I know it, my cat knows it, the mould in that tupperware I keep putting off opening in the far reaches of my fridge knows it.
No excuses now, and no bumper stickers will dissuade me. It’s been long enough, sell the thing or start sieg heiling.
my cat knows it
See, that's what we call an appeal to authority
Very early on, I think there were some well-meaning people who were really excited about it. The idea of an all-electric truck was brand new, and the promise was huge. It unfortunately wasn't until after many Cybertruck preorders had been secured that Elon plainly revealed his true colors, and then after it was delivered that people found out it was a piece of garbage
Idk, the first cyber trucks delivered nov 30 2023.
His takeover of Twitter was 2022, with plenty of bright red flags The "pedo guy" thing was 2019 All of his COVID violations were extremely public in 2020 and 2021
I think you'd have to be living under a rock to be completely unaware of what he was by the time preorders were locked in
It's just a convenient loophole for fascists to pretend they're not fascists.
"Oh no I gave them a fully refundable $100 to pre-order it, guess I'm locked into giving this seig heiling, election interfering, pedophilic elite illegal immigrant $100k."
There's a bunch of defenders in this very thread.
Yeah, true. But we’re like several years past that now. If you could afford one of those sins against the design gods, you could afford to take the L by now.
They couldn't tell from the look of the thing? When he first unveiled it, I thought it he was trying to make some sort of joke. Legitimately thought he was trying to prank people! The design is atrocious!
No excuses now
I believe this.
At the same time, they'll get what's coming to them. They bought a shitty cybertruck that will break down and has shitty resell value.
… It’s been long enough, sell the thing or start sieg heiling.
Or at least sieg selling… AMIRIGHT? 😅
I’m really hoping to pick one up cheap and make the monster-truck-DeLorean-time-machine of my dreams reality 🤓 But I’m only going up to $3.50 USD… gotta’ crash the whole CyberShmuck™ economy in the process 🤑
I've seen one many times driving to work, or home from family visits (on the same road) and I always make sure they see my finger flying out the window. The last time I saw them, they were having an argument, and I choose to believe they were arguing over something to the tune of:
"I HATE RIDING IN THIS THING, WE ALWAYS GET FLIPPED OFF"
"IDK WHAT TO TELL YOU, IT WAS A GREAT INVESTMENT"
Even if that's not it, seeing people be miserable in a cybercuck makes me happy on the inside.
I heard a comedian a while back talking about how her husband gives people a thumbs down instead of flipping them off in road rage situations and it pisses people off so much more, so I’ve been doing that to cybertrucks. I love it.
I'm near SpaceX in CA and see plenty of men in them because SpaceX purchased a bunch for company cars when Tesla couldn't sell them.
Also it's really weird to see like, 8 of them in one place.
I live in Austin, and I probably see 1-3 Cybertrucks per day. I used to feel deep vicarious shame for them, but that's slowly transformed into speechless incredulity
Of course not. What kind of man would want to see his family burned with him in a fiery death trap?
Every cybertruck I see where I live has some company logo or wrap on it. It's great advertising -- it lets me know never to hire that company for anything.
The most hilarious one is for a company that does waterproofing. Like yes, I'm going to hire a waterproofing company that just spent $100K on a vehicle that can't go through a car wash.
The other night i rallied a group of also drunk strangers outside a bar i just left to berrate a douche bag in a cyber truck until he left. It’s always one guy alone
Leaving all the downsides of the Cybertruck aside - the fact that it's built by a fucking nazi, the fact that it can turn in to a death trap, the fact that the build quality is shit...
Who the fuck buys a hideous, hideous car like this..? Who suffers from such poor taste that they think a piece of junk that looks like it was designed by a five-year-old is something worth spending money on, let alone so much?
A surprising amount of students at my uni have cybertruck.
No fucking clue.
Low resale value ?
IncEl Camino
I don't see them down here either as they fail basic standards for street legality
not true, i saw an oldish lady all alone
Enjoying her divorce settlement as much as possible 🤣
Sounds like her lawyer was terrible if she got stuck with that chudmobile.
Sadly this doesn't hold true for red states. I've seen multiple people putting their children at risk by ferrying them around in a vehicle that makes the Ford Pinto look safe.
Everyone gets lost talking about this thing. Purchasing and driving a poorly-engineered or aesthetically-questionable vehicle isn't the primary problem. That's not unique. There have always been shitty vehicles.
People who drive these gave $80,000 to empower the Nazis. The fact that they're shitboxes just underscores that conspicuous consumption and the support and affiliation for and with Fascism are the entire point.
There is only one in my city and it's parked in a church parking lot every Sunday.
A whole family driving any truck would be difficult since there's only room for one person on the drivers seat.
