Has Elon tuned down the race baiting or is it just no longer novel or interesting to point out his ketamine hole apartheid screeds anymore?

In the last 24 hours, it looks like he's only posted about immigrants immigranTS MMIGRANTS uhhhhhh hmmm maybe a dozen times.

Okay but the Lithuanian customs agents should have let this go to Russia. I see exactly zero reason to part any overly-credulous, hyper-wealthy fools from motorized suicide booths, regardless of national origin.

This isn't a "omg geopolitics" post, this is me being absolutely giddy with how many wealthy fools have been separated from six figures of that wealth for a car that, in addition to looking incredibly stupid, requires repair sometimes before they even have a chance to drive it.

I cannot get over what an absolutely life destroying financial decision the cybertruck is. Apart from the fact the car might physically kill you or a light breeze will cause extensive maintenance work.

There is going to be no resale value when Elon guts the company and the software stops working.

These Libertarian dickheads with passive income fantasies could just mortgage a property and then rent it.

something falls off my Civic(which costs less than a 1/3 of a cybertruck), I go over to the dealership and they have me fixed up in a few hours. Maybe there's a labor cost. Or if I feel like the dealership is shady, I can take it a half dozen other autorepair places that have access to the same supply channels the dealership has.

The cybertruck's gear selector/wheel/brake pedal falls off, you're looking at 4 months before the dealership can fix it. No you can't take it to a 3rd party shop. If you fix it yourself, you're risking voiding the warranty.

Also if you're looking into electric offroading more capable than a cybertruck, go get one of those ~$1000 AliExpress golf carts and install better suspension, swap the motor and battery.

It's not. And they know it's all bullshit. But it has to be bitter to blow all that on a toy and it's a lovely toy. Like a toy you wait years for and breaks a day after you get it. Then you have to drive the regular car and loudly tell everyone your cyber truck is in the shop for the next 6 months (after which it breaks again).
