🤣
it’s because of elon’s very public desire to destroy democracy, his flouting of our laws, his ruining of twitter, his hatred for certain people and love of pushing lies and paranoia, and other such nonsense. blame elon. he’s made driving a tesla go from “wow, awesome” to “omg, you support that azzhole?” in a few short years. it’s a shame.
That, and it’s a stupid looking truck and gets laughed at because of how dumb it is. I know I’d be laughing if I ever saw one irl
Not just women, homie. Not just women.
The few comments on that “article” are either poorly written or stuff like “just blow the doors off them at the next light”. Typical macho bullshit that they think impress people.
I mean, the cybertruck could be interesting… if it wasn’t hilariously expensive, and clouded my Elon Musk. Look at James May’s amusing take, which sets that aside:

I, uh, appreciate that they took a risk with the styling instead of making it so samey like every other car on the market, even iif it didn’t work out super well. It has some neat features. But I don’t feel a ton of sympathy for people being shamed for driving one, as it’s always been rather hypocritical, even before Musk really jumped into the deep end.
Right? It’s definitely something different and I can’t fault people for liking the look. The problem is the rest of the thing is also a poorly designed death trap from the ground up.
I always talk shit about these vehicles when I see them. I’d like to point and laugh, but the sort of people who worship muskrat are already unhinged.
Because you have a small dick
My 8 year old thinks they look cool. She also thinks that scrolling through youtube videos is peak comedy.
I realized she was laughing derisively. She was like, “What kind of person would drive something like that?” Or, “That’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen.”
Granted, she could have been having a weird reaction to a stroke or something, but I’m pretty sure I saw what I saw. Then today, I was at a four-way stop, and a guy in a Nissan Titan/Toyota Tundra or something smiled and then chuckled like: “What a tool.” Or, who would drive something like that?”
Mate, these thoughts are in your head. My partner has bouts of anxiety where she assumes people are always thinking the worst of her, so I’m hesitant to make fun of the dude because I’ve seen what it can do to someone, but he’s clearly bought a dumbass car to get attention and now he’s feeling insecure about it. It’s sad.
It’s both in this case though. People are pretty outspoken in how ridiculous that thing is, and he knows it too.
He knows it and he did it intentionally, but the people laughing at him are his imagination. He’s projected these thoughts onto them because he feels self-conscious, nobody said a word to him. It’s just as likely the woman was laughing because she’s on the phone, or the man was smirking at something on a podcast he’s got playing.
As a counter-point, I’ve seen Cybertrucks out in the wild on at least 3 occasions now and each time I thought to myself, “Look at this fucking idiot.”
One time someone else was in the car with me when we passed a Cybertruck and he did point and laugh at it.
I have actively pointed and laughed at multiple cyber trucks driving around San Diego this week. I have witnessed other people are doing the same. There’s an absurd number of them here, 3 parked on my street alone. One is wrapped in fucking fake gold leaf for fucks sake. How do you not openly laugh at these idiots
“I want to draw attention to myself”
“Wait not like that”Pretty sure I’ve seen the fake gold one in IB. I got a good look at one yesterday. They aren’t even trucks. There’s no bed. They are hatchbacks!
I’m calling them cyberbacks from now on
I’ve pointed and laughed at every Cybertuck I’ve seen for the reasons the guy referenced in the post thinks. I’m full-on laughing at the people who plopped down $100k for those 4-year-old’s-drawing-of-a-fucking-Halo-Warthog pieces of shit. Bullying serves a social function and these dumbasses are in need of it.
But this is really what people are thinking, not just in his head. I’ve chuckled to myself when I see these things, and they definitely are noticed by everyone so someone straight laughing upon seeing one is not out of the ordinary.
I will actively point and laugh.
I have more respect for someone walking around in an actual clown costume, than I do someone driving around that clown car.
Why would you not respect someone in a clown suit?
Yeah what’s this dude got against clowns ….
That’s fair that it’s mainly in the head of the person in the story.
That being said my partner and I actively point, laugh, and make fun of any cyberturds we see on the road very obviously. I’m sure we aren’t the only ones.
I’m leaning towards the poster being a troll.
That is way too self aware to be a cybertruck owner.
I understand that Musk is on the wrong side of the line for many people, including myself. But the desire to cancel is so hard for me to understand.
That dude’s face when he realizes that nobody is making fun of the Model 3 or S and correctly concludes that it is indeed the weirdest fucking thing off an assembly line in history
Lifestyles of the Rich and Stupid
This is hilarious!
I thought this was satire.
Your truck is stupid looking and poorly built, and you paid way too much for it.
I can sympathize with the people who bought their trucks unaware that it was going to be a piece of shit, or unfamiliar with Musk in general. But I have to believe that’s a small minority, and a lot of them should have returned their trucks for a refund by now.
If you’re driving it to make eco-conscious decisions, there are better options out there.
If you like the features and design, there are better options out there.
If you’re driving it as a status symbol, or because you’re a Musk fanboy, you deserve ridicule.
But you should also know that the ultimate flex is not giving a fuck what other people think. Own your place in the world, and be the person you want to be. Ignore the haters, no matter how ridiculous you look.
cybertruck buyers:
also cybertruck buyers: “y r evyone laughing at meeeeeeeee”
The low polygonal design is definitely not for everyone. However, this still doesn’t explain why the vehicle triggers people so much.
It’s more than enough. You spent north of $100,000 on something that looks like a child’s drawing of a car. This isn’t a real thinker - you will be mocked.
child’s drawing of a car
Every time I see one of these, however, I have tons of respect for the people buying them
I do still avoid them though lol
Which side is the front?
That’s the genius bit. They’re symmetrical so the front panels fit the back and vice versa
As someone who likes the aesthetic of the cybertruck; it annoys me that Elon has made such an ass of himself that it is effectively a non-option for serious people.
It is like the bastard child of a lamborghini countach and a delorean; but in a good way.
Preemptively; taste is subjective and personal. If you don’t like the look of it, cool that is for you. I think it looks awesome; but Elon is a fuckup and it is way too expensive.
Even if you like the look and elon was a great guy, you still bought a super expensive way too big car that is absolute garbage.
