10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
I didn't think much about it until I thought about the trump towers
We're all human
Dude, Tesla's CEO endorsed a racist, misogynistic, transphobic and pauperophobic rapist. He shows up at AfD and FdI rallies.
You're Syrian, once they've rounded up all the poor brown people they'll come for you. After all, a god-fearing, bible-thumping, red-white-and-blue bleeding American could be given your business.
And your taste in cars sucks, by the way.
I'm against threats and harassment. In any case even if that vehicle wasn't Musk related it still is an eyesore - equivalent to brutalism architecture - and doubly so being the colour of piss ;)
Can't he just drive it to a "safe space"?
Yah, driving a car that symbolizes the guy helping destroy the nation isn't going to win you points. Sounds like he (Syrian immigrant) bought it a couple of years too early before Elon revealed his stripes.
It sounds like we all agree. Despite all the rightful cybertruck hate and despite the garish gold color, this driver was not even particularly persecuted. He was just living the life of a normal Bostonian (which always includes other drivers cursing at you, cause that's what we do here).
So... This is actually just a non-story. The headline could have been "Ridiculous gold cybertruck exists in Massachusetts, driver treated normally"
Or perhaps,
"Driver of ridiculous gold cyber truck somehow still isn't getting enough attention!"
Cyberjunk owners:
Git em, eat em
Good.
The obvious thought.
It's the little things that give me hope... Stuff like this. Get fucked, supporters of Elon Musk.
Yes, if you drive his car, you support him. Sell it, watch the value drop overall from you and others doing it, and you'll be back on the other side of the fence.
If you don’t want to be treated like a nazi sympathizer, then don’t drive a nazi vehicle. Simple.
