Vandalised? More like improved.
This is why the planet is fucked, you all whine that climate change is scary but then you cheer on people attacking electric cars just because Twitter man bad. You’re all desperate for tesla to fail because Elon upset you, someone doing something petty that’ll have zero effect on Elon but will negatively affect a regular person fills you with joy because it’s a way of hitting back at the bad man. Totally childish and pathetic.
Spend that energy learning about and praising positive things, don’t win by tearing your opponent down win by building yourself up.

The tyre extinguishers are more worth your while to support:
https://tyreextinguishers.com/You … are aware Tesla isn’t the only EV car company, and is also one of the more expensive ones … right?
Their work sharing battery tech was monumental in starting the market and they’ve continued to really push things forward.
I understand you have an emotional response to a distasteful man but ignoring reality makes you seem totally unserious and frankly absurd.
Right, I’m the one seeing things through a funnel of “emotional response” and ignoring the rest of the EV market because of nostalgia and a sense of devotion …
Its paint. They can still drive them. Stop being a little baby.
Also, i don’t know about a single nice person that bought this low poly piece of shit.
Tesla is synonymous with climate destruction and if you believe otherwise demonstrates that you have grossly bought into their propaganda.
All of the vehicles in the article were pre-delivery. As they were still owned by Tesla, it falls on the company to repair them.
I’m not justifying vandalism, but the impact to the buyer is a delayed delivery vs a monetary and PR impact to Tesla.
No matter what cars will be shit for the environment in some way, things like pubic transport, bike infrastructure and more walkable cities are things that actually help
Ok… I’ll take the bait, can you please share links that show how the Cybertruck is actually good the planet? I didn’t actually read technical review about it. I mostly see silly (and sometimes fun) memes. I also recently read that EV in generals don’t have the same impact as electrical bikes, e.g https://www.theguardian.com/news/ng-interactive/2024/apr/11/evs-are-booming-but-electric-bikes-are-really-cutting-emissions , but maybe I’m misinformed and this vehicle by Tesla, despite its size, it’s actually helping. Can you please share a link to such review and/or studies with e.g Life cycle assessment (LCA) / ISO 14040?
PS: to clarify I don’t mean articles about how it’s “changing mind”, I mean numerical estimations then comparison between one mean of transport, e.g non EV vs EV, or this EV vs other or this EV vs random electric bike.
tesla is not elon
But they pay him tens on millions as a bonus for being an idiot
Billions. They paid him the same amount of money (as a bonus!) as Bill Gates had in total when he was the worlds richest person in 2007.
after paying him tens of millions, they did it again a thousand more times because thousands of tens of millions is billions. tens of thousands of millions of dollars. It’s an insane amount of money.
Calling him a “cocksucker” is frankly insulting to people who perform the act of sucking cock. Musk is way too selfish to perform the generous and loving act that is fellatio.
…tens of
millionsbillions…FTFY
Tens of millions is drastically understating tens of billions.
The difference is literally tens of billions.
Elon sucks, but vandalizing someone else’s property because of him isn’t cool.
Vandalizing cybertrucks before delivery is cool. Laws are not the arbitor of coolness.
It’s really not, they’ve all been pre ordered so far. Someone has been waiting on delivery of the ones that have been vandalized.
My heart goes to all the poor souls waiting for their Cybertrucks. They are the real heroes.
True. Although the value likely went up, so maybe not actual vandalization…
They’re worth a lot at the moment, but very soon the value will tank and all these founders editions are going to be worth at least 30k less.
A substantial number are turning into paperweights within hours of delivery so their value has already tanked
They haven’t though, try and buy one.
Tesla sales are down & stocks are piling up: https://sherwood.news/business/elon-musk-tesla-extra-inventory-satellite-imagery/
Cybertruck issues piling up: https://www.fastcompany.com/91109879/a-timeline-of-tesla-cybertruck-problems-from-rust-to-hail-damage-to-pedal-recalls
And you can find endless videos on all SM about how they bricked within hours of delivery
Anybody who buys one of those vehicles is someone who sucks also. Fuck em all.
“There’s no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism so fuck everyone.”
There’s a difference between buying something because you need it, and buying something to signal you are part of a fascist cult - and let’s be honest, no one buys a cybertruck because it’s a good vehicle for any purpose.
and buying something to signal you are part of a fascist cult
There is difference between rich not knowing where to spend the money while signaling that you are rich who doesn’t know where to spend the money and signaling being part of fascist cult.
I’m not sure why people seem to think that sentence says “purchases are beyond reproach,” but it doesn’t. Two things can be unethical with one being much more obviously worse.
Leave other people’s personal property alone, even if they suck.
no personal property was involved.
I’m not going to judge a human by the vehicle he drives. BUT, if I was to, it does seem the BMW drivers traded in their cars and bought Tesla’s.
I don’t know. Vandalizing luxury cars finds me morally indifferent. I’m not going to argue for vandalizing them but I simply can’t get myself to care enough for the poor souls whose “cybetrucks” need a new paint job.
I don’t care either, but still, it’s low class to fuck with someones shit. If you’re trying to make a statement, damaging property isn’t the way.
@InternetUser2012 @theacharnian and it’s not ‘someone’s’ it is a corporations, one with $44B to gift someone.
All the current cyber trucks have been pre ordered for a long time.
@InternetUser2012 still isn’t yours till it’s delivered
Yup, but you now have to wait longer because some asshat spray painted your truck. Again, I probably hate Elon more than you, I was going to buy a Model 3 until he showed his true colors.
Don’t care. Also, please don’t use “low class” as a slur.
Oh, no! Not the rich dickheads!
the stainless (but not rustless) paint job?
Elon Musk haters have vandalized dozens of Tesla Cybertrucks being held ahead of delivery at a parking lot in Florida.
Literally the first sentence of the article. The owner isn’t going to take this loss. Tesla will.
Those owners are only going to have them for about 4 hours after delivery when the truck will die for a multitude of reasons anyway!
No shit the owner isn’t taking a loss, the owner now has to wait even longer because some clown wanted to make a statement that Elon sucks. Want to hurt Elon, talk shit about him, he doesn’t give a shit about vandalizing shit.
Causing financial harm to corporations that are harming society is a valid form of protest that had been used as a tactic for over a century.
Yeah ok, what are we protesting?
your momma’s emissions.
Fitting name.
The problem is having a clown as a CEO for a brand that keeps making people hate him in a very PR visible way. Other car brands don’t get graffiti’d.
Vandalizing the environment isn’t either.
Yet here you are posting on the internet using all those vandalizing products right?
vandalizing cybertrucks is cool and good loser
how many?
All 12 Cybertrucks that were purchased.
DOZENS!
Sure, that’s how many cybertrucks were vandalized, but how many were spray painted on?
They should have aimed at the non-stainless steel portion. Pretty sure you could wipe this up easy with some acetone or gasoline as a solvent.
“It makes no sense to vandalize Tesla’s property because you dislike Elon”
Bahhahaahha. Bet.
It also makes no sense that Elon isn’t in prison but here we are.
For what?
Stock Market manipulation
If that actually bothered you then Elon is lost in a huge list, it’s painfully obvious you’re reaching at straws to justify your emotions rather than forming emotions based on an honest appraise of reality
He is in line. Very long line. Veeeeery looooong. Longer than longcat.
@return2ozma Older Tesla’s one can give the owner the benefit of the doubt that they purchased it before Elon showed his true colours. No Cybertruck owner has that defence.
They are lucky it’s just paint.
I’m sure paint comes off ‘stainless’ steel real easy…
F_Elon is probably is future username
That’s an idea 🤔
They missed a trick by using paint, when a spray of salt water would have done the job at one more subtly and more permanently
Spraywatering with salt
deleted by creator
while at the same time by-design cloaking it as pure bad quality could actually cause way more longterm damage than a little bit of paint.
on the other hand the paint could also be just a marketing strategy depending on what they smoked to get new ideas
Ironically making them more corrosion resistant, by doing so…
Without justifying this really dumb act, because there’s no justifying it, […]
How about we just don’t vandalize private property. That’s a good standpoint to build on.Wow, how unbased can an article get?
Why bother trying to make something uglier that is already maximum ugly?
“Yes Mr. Crowler we hear what you’re saying, but unfortunately spray paint voids your warranty.”
Don’t worry, for others they say turning it on voids warranty
Good. Fuck that fascist and his companies. The only sad part of this story is that they used paint and not something that would etch or scratch the stainless.
If I was a good capitalist, I would release a line of spray paints containing a concentrated, strong acid so they would corrode the metal, leaving a mark after the paint was removed. Call it something stupid like “Muskoleum,” “RustEloneum,” or “Cybertruck Repair Spray”," but preferably something catchier.
The truck is not really washable. They will absolutely fuck it up cleaning that out. It can’t even resist rain.
You’re suppose to use gasoline or kerosene to clean stainless steel cars. At least the Deloreans came with instructions on how to do it. Not sure if Tesla saw fit to mention that.
Thats actually a better name for them than cybertruck. The Fuckelon
F.Elon.
