I feel embarrassed and ashamed for them.
Of course I feel sad for them. The people of New Orleans deserve better than having swasticars in their midst.
99% of these bozos bought the thing based on identity. Statistically the CT is proving to be one of the worst put together EV’s in automotive history. Silicon Valley and the techbros have been playing supremacy games for 25 years. So what if just now the hammer drops. They played sycophant, and didn’t want to hear the left’s warnings.
FAFO
Imagine encouraging vandalism at the property of others
I’m just waiting for you guys to keep this up until it’s too late and then realize why people think y’all are unhinged psychopaths.
I don’t encourage it, but having some familiarity with what it’s like to be minding my own business at a good job only to have Elon swoop in and fuck everything up, I understand.
This is the product of powerlessness. Rich people can come in and fuck up your life at any time. And seeking revenge would be futile. But people still want to do it, so they do the next closest thing.
Im just waiting for you to realize how stupid of a comment that is!
Spray painted with lipstick, lol
‘‘Spray painted with lipstick’’ hummm…
I read “Spray painted” and “nazi written in lipstick” as two separate acts
I do feel bad, yeah.
Having bad taste in vehicles and too much money to spend on stupid things doesn’t really warrant destruction of property. Being mostly unaware of the political statements of a CEO (which, at the time of the Cybertruck’s release or when people were ordering it he wasn’t nearly as deep into this crap as he is now) isn’t really a crime either…
Well…
A bit, yeah.
By and large the market for the Tesla cybertruck is going to be people with more money than sense. Those people I can’t really have any sympathy for. My advice to them is to park the truck in your garage and drive literally anything else that you own from what is sure to be a selection of different cars.
For those that purchased a CT at the end of their finances, and could only barely afford to justify it, I feel for them. They can’t easily buy something else to drive, and the contract forbids them from selling anytime soon. They put in their orders long before Musk was actively demonstrating how much of a shit head he really is. These people are just regular folks who wanted a truck, bought the Tesla branded sales pitch, and thought it was a good investment over alternatives like rivian. IMO, they’re victims just as much as the government employees that used to work in DEIA departments, and USAID.
Then people are taking out their frustration and causing material harm to those duped by the world’s richest man… Double jeopardy.
None of what Elon did is their fault. People are causing them material harm. You’re not hurting Elon with these shenanigans, and you don’t know that the person who is suffering is a part of the same club that Elon is. Err on the safe side and leave people’s property alone, please.
I don’t like Elon, and I don’t like Tesla. I have no sympathy for either if they go down in flames. I do, however, feel bad for all those who are being materially harmed by all this horse shit. They didn’t ask for this, they just wanted an electric car that goes vroom on batteries.
I look at it this way. There are a lot of people being harmed by Musk’s actions that didn’t choose to put themselves in harm’s way. That is not these people. I reserve my sympathy for those that had no hand in getting fucked over by a billionaire. People who either chose to put themselves in harm’s way and those that chose to ignore all of the signs that they were putting themselves in harm’s way can get in fucking line.
I’d argue that the ultimate cost of these shenanigans is, in fact borne by Tesla and therefore the Nazibro that owns the most shares.
People are put off driving and owning one because they worry about it getting trashed means less sell, and the share price falls.
Side-effect of hurting the fee-fees and finances of the pompous arseholes that bought that stupid shit in the first place?
Awesome.
Leon prominently threw in with the nazis a couple months before the CT started shipping. People so thoroughly ignoring politics and red flags until they themselves are hurt is precisely why we’re in this whole mess. Why are you carrying water for them, when of all the people that have been hurt by all this they are among the people who had it best until now and had the clearest warning signs to date?
These aren’t commuter cars, or work vehicles, there is no practical reason to own one. They are a status symbol of musks politics. The venn diagram of people who own these and wear maga hats is essentially a single circle. There is a daily growing number of struggling american families who deserve sympathy and almost every one of the folks who paid six figures of disposable income for the opportunity to support musks politics are not victims.
I like the look and still kind of want one, maybe I can pick one up cheap from someone selling.
Also I think trump and maga are stupid.
Schadenfraude and all, but I’m still against vandalism and damaging other people’s property.
I wonder what prez musk will do when the insurance companies raise the rates for owning Teslsa products.
Sue them, of course.
Even if that weren’t a part of the contract; do you think anyone wants to buy a Cyber Truck!?!
Chechens are serious about making it the next Toyota Hilux.
Given how many issues it has had so far, doesn’t that place it on the opposite side of the spectrum from the Hilux? Isn’t this akin to submitting a tiny, rotten tomato into a worlds biggest vegetable competition?
For sure, I just mean they like to stick guns in the bed. Don’t tell them how unreliable they are, please.
When the price bottoms out it becomes a cheap mobile power wall!
Insuring it will be an absolute nightmare. The insurance companies dont care if you bought it cheap.
I’m sure ya could find someone in Louisiana who would buy one, at the very least it’d be fun to shoot at a gun range.
Bought the car just to get attention and you’re getting the attention. I don’t see the problem. You got exactly what you wanted. It’s a fuck ugly car that’s shit quality. You bought it just because you wanted to be noticed. Well, play dumb games, win dumb prizes.

More like, idiots destroy our cities and towns with their giant wankpanzers and then they cry like babies when people fight back.
If you don’t want people to destroy your swatzicar then 1. don’t buy a nazi vehicle and 2. Don’t buy a truck with the highest traffic fatality rate of any vehicle. Your freedom of self expression ends where your choice kills other people
Buy a ugly vehicle that looks like a third graders drawing to be seen. Now being seen is a liability. Too bad so sad… I’m not sad.

Whoa, I hate cybertrucks as much as the next guy, but that’s a bit harsh. You shouldn’t kill someone just for buying a vehicle.

The only thing more precious than human life: tires 🙄
property > people
that’s the entirety of conservative values
Yes, Cybertrucks kill pedestrians and cyclists at much higher rates than smaller cars, but that doesn’t mean we should kill CT owners for destroying our towns and cities
interesting choice of words. in multiple comments. did you get lost on your way to 4chan?
Isn’t lemmy a 4chan proxy
CT? Cunt Truck?

I have walked around New Orleans with my Computer Tomography and I’ve been fine.
