A Facebook group for Cybertruck owners is full of videos and photos of passersby and other drivers flicking them off, leaving notes that say “WHAT’S ELON’S CUM TASTE LIKE?,” and “NAZI CAR,” and people kicking their cars, throwing slices of cheese at it, etc.

This is exactly like the support groups for parents who got NCed after refusing to get off their MAGA bullshit. Don't buy a dumb car if you don't want people to say you have a dumb car.

Please correct me if I'm wrong but, hypothetically if someone were to vandalise a Tesla to the point of it being written off, could the owner request that the insurance company replace it with a non-tesla car?
