Who? What? Wait… Are we talking about just_another_person or Elon?

Tesla took taxpayer money that existed to create economy EVs, and was allowed to build “luxury” cars that they knew would never be competitive with other economy cars in terms of price, then they gave the money they took to Elon in a pay package.
Not only was this company used to siphon hundreds of billions from the American taxpayer, it stifiled the US’s transition to green energy which is required to stop the extinction of all macroscopic life.

Sadly I know at least 3 of these cybershits are in my city.
Lemminary@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
I was surprised to find one in my city. And honestly, it felt like being in the presence of an oversized Fisher Price toy car because of the tire fenders. It does not look fancy. You can tell the engineers tried very hard to make it look its best.

It’s “The Homer” IRL, but didn’t cause the company to go bankrupt. Alas.

AFAIK there’s like one Cybertruck in all of Norway, and it got snuck in through some loophole because it doesn’t meet vehicle standards.
Model Y is selling like hot cakes, though. Most likely because they’re getting cheaper due to nobody else wanting to buy them.

All VW, Kia, etc have to do to beat Tesla is not be enshitification obsessed piles of shit and they just fucking can’t… it’s frustrating.

This is not a good video
just_another_person@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Why?
m0darn@lemmy.ca 5 weeks ago
Its just someone mocking people for liking their trucks. Like yeah the trucks are bad and the people must have some sort of cognitive challenge to still like them them even though they’ve been fleeced. But the video is just a smart ass calling people idiots.

I will say that it’s styling is unique and distinctive, and looks like it belongs in a videogame, making it a polarizing “love it or hate it” aesthetic. While such a risky choice could potentially succeed, Musk going full MAGA and throwing Nazi salutes really turned a lot of people off of Tesla, and it’s distinctive flagship videogame “truck” became the instant icon of douchbaggery. Add in that Musk chronically over promises and under delivers (i.e., he lies about prospective features and benefits of his products), and every single problem with the vehicle is put under the microscope and (rightfully) held up as an example of why the truck is shit. Also note that, on brand for Musk, the relatively low price that it was promised at ($39,999) never materialized, and the actual price for the base vehicle was over $100K. So yeah, overpriced and shit compared to what was promised. The styling might have been able to find a fanbase, but not now, because it flags you as a Nazi supporter.

If it were an actually good vehicle the styling would have been ugly-cute. Jeeps aren’t particularly good looking but (until recently) their off-road skills made up for it.
But it’s bad at just about everything, made poorly, and looks like a dumpster.

I have a unique and distinctive ass but let’s not pretend anyone but the government was ever lining up to fuck it.
i want a car with good panels that don’t fly off while you’re driving. That’s a good idea.
rigatti@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
It was supposed to be $40k? How would anyone ever believe that?
just_another_person@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Yup. It’s just hilarious to me. I love it.

The Cybertruck is the first Tesla vehicle that was designed completely under the direction of Musk. The other models had all been part of the original Tesla founders’ long term plans. They had a series of vehicles they wanted to produce, and they laid the groundwork for them years in advance. The Cybertruck was the first after Musk had gained complete control. It represents what is truly in his heart. He is a machine man. An unnatural man. With a machine mind and a machine heart.

It’s just like if Homer Simpson were in charge of designing a car:
