    That photo gave me a some serious Goldeneye 007 on the N64 vibes, its like he unlocked the cheat code to get the golden car to go with the golden gun.
    Until now I didnt think it was possible to make that thing look more low-poly.

    Buy overpriced ugly truck from an outward Nazi

    Cover it in shiny gold wrap to draw even more attention and be obnoxious to anyone who doesn’t want to be blinded on the road

    Be surprised when people don’t like you

    ???

    Hard to find any sympathy for the guy. A cybertruck costs almost 3 times the amount of comparable electric trucks.

    You pay that much extra because you want the hate.

    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.

      Yeah, and a non-zero amount of humans are insufferable bastards bent on subverting, dismantling and exploiting society for their own gain.

    Weird that he’s driving around a swasticar from a company run by a guy that would probably like to deport him…

    Jaroje was so worried that he tried to trade in the Cybertruck, but with no luck. He said he received a call and a text from a Tesla representative saying the company can’t take the truck back, even after sending them the hateful sticker.

    “He confirmed with the text message that Tesla is not accepting Cybertruck trade-ins at this moment,” Jaroje said. He hopes the community will set aside judgment and be open to differences.

    The vehicles are so bad that even the company that makes them won’t buy them.

          Also because people don’t like to support the Nazi billionaire who is actively destroying their country. But the terrible quality control of their overpriced and poorly designed cars doesn’t help.

        Fuck the cyber truck and all, but their sales numbers are still pretty good when you compare them to the other expensive EV trucks floating around.

        If they were more affordable, I guarantee you that you’d see more assholes driving these.

    Why is he ok with people that don’t treat others as human, yet expects to be treated as human himself, then?

    “It’s not just about what happened to me. It’s about everyone in this country. If you disagree, don’t retaliate. Don’t be violent. Don’t try to hurt your neighbor. We’re all human,”

    I mean, if you believe that, my guy, you shouldn’t have bought the nazi truck. You also definitely should not have gotten a fucking gold one. You also ABSOLUTELY shouldn’t have driven it around in MASSACHUSETTS. I flip these fucks off when I see them here. I don’t agree with physically threatening them, but c’est la vie I guess.

      I just love that someone is complaining about people being rude to him in a state with such rude, aggressive drivers that the term ‘Masshole’ was invented to describe them.

      Be careful out there, flipping off other drivers is considered “road rage” in some places and can get you ticketed.

      Plus, a thumbs down with a look of disgust is funnier!

    Bis wife started screaming after seeing a “profane sticker”? Sounds like an “and then everybody clapped” story to me.

    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!”

      I once had someone throw a beer bottle at me from their car as I was walking the dog. They yelled ‘Dog Wanker!’ Where’s my news story?

        Ok, that’s a bit messed up. And “wanker”? Did you walk the dog all the way to London?

        You sure they didn’t say “fuckhead” and maybe it only sounded like wanker?
