The Cybertruck's design and styling is a reflexion of the person who willed it into existence: it's tone-deaf and disconnected with the reality of what people want. That's what you get from someone who has zero empathy and thinks he understands other people but actually doesn't.

Exactly. He's a child who paid for a toy. Not an educated, talented adult who's vision for innovation & progress was made a reality.

Let’s not act surprised that a company headed by a fucking Nazi is unpopular these days

[–] lerba@sopuli.xyz 18 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Lot of other companies run by similar, but less-known nazzies are doing just fine...

You'll be glad to hear that this famous Nazi's company is not.

No one else threw two Nazi salutes at the inauguration

It's kind of akin to the DMC DeLorean, in more than just the chunky aesthetic aspects. That vehicle was a really bad one, too, with regard to build quality and reliability. The Back to the Future movies are probably the only reason there is any cultural relevance to them, after the 80's ended.

Hope it genuinely does collapse and he learns something.

Hate to break it to you, but people like him think we are just plain wrong and that they got railroaded, not that they made any mistakes

[–] oftheair@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 1 week ago

Yeah we are aware ☹️, but we can still hope.

These articles are all full of shit. Unless Tesla's stock drops to zero, they're doing just fine. In fact, their stock has been going up since all this bullshit started happening. It's unbelievable.

It's such a shame. The Model Y looks pretty nice.

[–] skozzii@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago

Model Y looks nice in a pictures but the back of it looks stupid in person.
