Feel free to point and laugh, but many people had one before Elon went full Nazi. Nobody should blame them for anything.

Dude's been running towards the far right as fast as possible.

Anyone who admired him - or spent money on his shit products - after he called a hero a pedo, they can lick my ass.

As long as they ask nicely, anyone can lick my ass.

I can't believe this is so controversial, but people shouldn't be blamed for buying one even now. It's just a car. If people hate Elon (not a big fan myself), then don't buy one. But respect other people's right to buy what they want and leave their shit alone.

I wish "live and let live" was still a thing. We might not be so polarized if it was.

I'd be ok with someone buying a used one. People are getting rid of them, and if that allows someone who otherwise couldn't afford one to get it cheap, then I'm happy they were able to do that.

But ordering a brand new cyber truck right now is supporting Nazis, and those people should be ashamed of that.
