You buy a clown car, and don't like it when people laugh at you?

The article is likely satire but I hope the reporter's name is real.

[–] Alice@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

It's a normal Ethiopian name as far as I can tell.

Most likely satire, but when you buy a Cybertruck you are kinda going whole hog in telling the world you drive a Tesla.

And it's still fucking ugly.

Can confirm, I'm a woman who points and laughs every time I see a cybertruck IRL

"Unfortunately, the Cybertruck is BEING made political."

"I sleep and drive soundly knowing my Cybertruck existing in the world is itself a giant self driving stainless steel middle finger to all the snowflakes and communists out there."

Owning the libs by giving tens of thousands of dollars to the richest man on the planet.

It's not just women laughing at your cybertruck

On the flip side, he may be ridiculed by fossile fans for driving electric.

You have to be a particular type of moron performing some very poor mental gymnastics to think “being pro fossil fuel” would be the motivation for laughing at a person driving a cyber truck

[–] Sibbo@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

Aren't cyber trucks electric?

My partner did this just recently. I just handed the phone to them with Lemmy open and said "he saw you". :D
