No shit the owner isn’t taking a loss, the owner now has to wait even longer because some clown wanted to make a statement that Elon sucks. Want to hurt Elon, talk shit about him, he doesn’t give a shit about vandalizing shit.
There’s a difference between buying something because you need it, and buying something to signal you are part of a fascist cult - and let’s be honest, no one buys a cybertruck because it’s a good vehicle for any purpose.
and buying something to signal you are part of a fascist cult
There is difference between rich not knowing where to spend the money while signaling that you are rich who doesn’t know where to spend the money and signaling being part of fascist cult.
I’m not sure why people seem to think that sentence says “purchases are beyond reproach,” but it doesn’t. Two things can be unethical with one being much more obviously worse.
I don’t know. Vandalizing luxury cars finds me morally indifferent. I’m not going to argue for vandalizing them but I simply can’t get myself to care enough for the poor souls whose “cybetrucks” need a new paint job.
Yup, but you now have to wait longer because some asshat spray painted your truck. Again, I probably hate Elon more than you, I was going to buy a Model 3 until he showed his true colors.
Elon sucks, but vandalizing someone else’s property because of him isn’t cool.
Literally the first sentence of the article. The owner isn’t going to take this loss. Tesla will.
Those owners are only going to have them for about 4 hours after delivery when the truck will die for a multitude of reasons anyway!

Causing financial harm to corporations that are harming society is a valid form of protest that had been used as a tactic for over a century.
Yeah ok, what are we protesting?
your momma’s emissions.
Fitting name.
Anybody who buys one of those vehicles is someone who sucks also. Fuck em all.
I’m not going to judge a human by the vehicle he drives. BUT, if I was to, it does seem the BMW drivers traded in their cars and bought Tesla’s.
Leave other people’s personal property alone, even if they suck.
no personal property was involved.
“There’s no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism so fuck everyone.”

Vandalizing cybertrucks before delivery is cool. Laws are not the arbitor of coolness.
It’s really not, they’ve all been pre ordered so far. Someone has been waiting on delivery of the ones that have been vandalized.
My heart goes to all the poor souls waiting for their Cybertrucks. They are the real heroes.

I don’t care either, but still, it’s arcargitz to fuck with someones shit. If you’re trying to make a statement, damaging property isn’t the way.
Edit: Fixed a phrase that offended someone.
Don’t care. Also, please don’t use “low class” as a slur.
@InternetUser2012 @theacharnian and it’s not ‘someone’s’ it is a corporations, one with $44B to gift someone.
All the current cyber trucks have been pre ordered for a long time.
@InternetUser2012 still isn’t yours till it’s delivered
Yup, but you now have to wait longer because some asshat spray painted your truck. Again, I probably hate Elon more than you, I was going to buy a Model 3 until he showed his true colors.
Oh, no! Not the rich dickheads!
the stainless (but not rustless) paint job?
True. Although the value likely went up, so maybe not actual vandalization…
They’re worth a lot at the moment, but very soon the value will tank and all these founders editions are going to be worth at least 30k less.
A substantial number are turning into paperweights within hours of delivery so their value has already tanked
They haven’t though, try and buy one.

And you can find endless videos on all SM about how they bricked within hours of delivery
Doesn’t matter, if you want a cyber truck right now, you’re going to pay more than sticker for a used one.
The problem is having a clown as a CEO for a brand that keeps making people hate him in a very PR visible way. Other car brands don’t get graffiti’d.
Vandalizing the environment isn’t either.
Yet here you are posting on the internet using all those vandalizing products right?
