    I’m sure it is hard being so stupid that you would look at that ridiculous “truck” and say, “yeah, I’ll drop $100k on that.”

      Went to our State Fair and Tesla had 2 cyber trucks there. Passing by I heard one guy say “damn that thing looks good” and another one about a minute later said “for 100k that’s not a bad deal”.

      Idiots.

      You do you. Personally I found this to be a waste of time and energy. Not to mention that doing this also adds to cybertruck owners’ sense of persecution when they’re out and about, which further polarizes them away from rational discourse.

      Anyone who owns one of those cars and drives it around at this point is likely driving it BECAUSE of the reaction they get from everyone around them. It’s far more cruel to deny them what they want. Ignore them. If you can’t, then laugh at them instead. After all it is funny that thousands of idiots spent 100k+ on this generation’s iteration of the Ford Pinto, except that it looks like shit.
