Let’s not mince words. Enough of the soft language.
If you bought a cybertruck, or any Tesla after Musk went full mask off, you are a Nazi collaborator. That is not hyperbole. That is not exaggeration. You are literally a Nazi collaborator. And you have the exact same moral culpability as an Nazi collaborator during the reign of the historical German Nazi Party. You voluntarily signed up to give tens of thousands of dollars to an overt white supremacist hellbent on the extermination of entire social groups. You gave tens of thousands of dollars to a Nazi. You are a Nazi collaborator.
If you use Google, in any way, even by using an Android phone, you agree with the genocide of palestinians. That is not hyperbole. That is not exaggeration.
🤦
Fascism took over the US, because people like you thought fascists could never take over the US.
Sure. A country based on racism, but it’s because of me that it turned out to be racist, even though I’m not a citizen of the USA and I knew it was a fucked up country based on its various issues like killing civilians, spying on everyone for “anti-terrorism” and “fight against CSAM”
Maybe it’s actually because there are many people like this, with many being still in power with no consequences because free speech apparently means freedom of spreading hate and misinformation
Maybe it’s because your country only lets people chose between 2 candidates and has a deeply flawed electoral system that promotes voting for whoever was elected by your favorite side (~left / right) without really thinking. It really is an all or nothing election.
But yea it’s definitely me and people that are like me.
Continue calling everyone a nazi and racist for no reason. You’re really helping the cause and convincing people.
Y’all are cheapening the meaning of Nazi. Call him a moron or something else.
The Trump/Musk government meets all the textbook definitions of fascism. They’re literally sending people, without due process, to overseas gulags. They’re revoking the passports of groups who were also historically targeted by the Nazis. They’re flagrantly violating court orders. They’re using the exact same fear and intimidation tactics employes by the Nazis. The Nazis took over because people like you had a normalcy bias and assumed that the skinheads would never take over the place.
If you want to argue that they’re technically just fascist, and not Nazis, fair enough. But if you need to make that distinction, I think the point is already lost.
Thank you so much, I’m sick of people defending this shit, they can fuck right off. Dude has been a full blown Nazi for a hot minute too
It reminds me of centrist Dem politicians. The same group that ran a campaign openly saying that Trump would institute a fascist coup now insist on pretending everything is normal. The greatest weapon of a latter-day fascist is the normalcy bias. Trump won the election because many people assumed those calling Trump a fascist were just exercising ordinary political hyperbole. Now we have an Apartheid billionaire reorganizing the government and a Secretary of Defense that has giant white power tattoo on his chest. The president is openly performing shakedown operations against legal firms and media outlets. And the regime is rounding people up without due process and shipping them off to an overseas gulag. The administration is doing this citing a law that was last used to inter Japanese Americans during WW2.
Hell, my passport was retroactively declared fraudulent because I happen to be a member of one of the groups that the fascists have defined as their internal enemies. My nation’s government has decided that I do not deserve the right to leave the country. When it comes time to renew my passport, I’ll be given a document completely useless for actual travel abroad.
And yet, we’re supposed to play nice and pretend that this isn’t fascism. It meets every definition of the word, but people are so blinded by normalcy bias that they can’t see what’s right in front of their face. They won’t admit it’s fascism until they’re force to tour a literal death camp and walk past piles of charred corpses. And even then, they would have questions of whether this really was fascism.
I can see no way one could know about the cybertruck to buy it without also knowing how stupid Elon is. Even when they announced it, my first thought was “I like the look, but it’s a Tesla so fuck that noise.”
And yes, I do like how it looks. It’s different, and I like the low-poly shape. If it wasn’t also a huge piece of shit, made by a racist asshole I’d probably want one. Though I also thought it was half the size until I saw one in person.
It kinda looks neat in photos but in person it looks dog shit and the doofuses driving them look even more idiotic than the average lifted truck driving types somehow
Seeing one in the wild is like running your hand over smoth and lacquered wood and then catching a splinter.
Nah, they look cool in person too. Musk is a piece of shit, and the construction of the cyber truck is just… Well it’s a fucking deathtrap. But I’m not going to lie to myself like some insecure dumbass just because I hate the company; the truck does at least look cool. It would fit right at home in a sci-fi movie.
They look so much better painted. There’s one in my area with an iridescent paint job that actually looks pretty awesome, or it would, if it wasn’t an oversized nazimobile.
My current theory is that the Muskrat knows this and just figured out how to pass the cost for a paint job directly to consumers.
I thought the same thing; I’d love to see more low-poly style IRL. The CT looks impressively terrible from the back though.
Not low poly but the boxier jdm cars are a good design. They know how to use sharp angles, but still incorporate curves to make an actual well rounded design. Things like the toyota ae86 (one of the most iconic one) and nissan pulsar nx (my favorite because of the tailights) are really good designs imo.
There is also the hyundai n vision 74, a more modern take on jdm style cars (though mostly a concept car)
Example of the pulsar nx
My dream car is something like this but electric. Small, maneuverable, and sustainable is what I want in a car.
One of the things I learned after they were actually made is that making a car look that way is, in fact, part of the design problem. It’s apparently harder to make everything flat and line up than it is to be curved. Not to mention the areodynamics suffer, which in turn lower the energy efficiency of the vehicle. Which is really why we don’t get interesting fractal designs like this more often.
And yet you STILL own it.
Well to be fair, the argument is similar to telling folks about to suffer from client change to sell their property and move. How are they gonna get rid of it? They’re probably upside down on it too. Maybe you get lucky and sell it to a wealthy conservative?
I don’t have much pity for people who are upside down on a vehicle that sells for the price of a Cybertruck
I agree, I don’t have pitty either, I’m just saying they exist now and I imagine you can’t just drive it into a lake.
A cyber truck costs more than my house and huge yard did. I started comparing large purchases to the cost of my house, and it makes rich folks seem even crazier. Some people will buy a piece of shit, hazardous car for more than what some houses are worth. My house is in fine condition, too, it’s just very small and I got very very lucky with timing and the seller knowing what the property is actually worth.
I remember seeing too that because of fear of scalpers, Tesla made a lot of Cybertruck buyers sign an agreement saying they wouldn’t sell the car for X number of years.
And how are they going to enforce that?
Legally speaking, how can Tesla stop you from selling your car?
There was never a time when the truck was not a stainless steel turd. I have never seen a review (by a technical person, not an influencer wank) that said “buy this truck, it’s pretty good.”
On the other hand, driving around with an advertisement saying, “Elon is crazy and this was a bad investment” isn’t the worst thing in the world.
