From the US Department of Justice:
Hate Crime: At the federal level, a crime motivated by bias against race, color, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, or disability.
So is their argument that owning a Cybertruck is a disability? Because they might have a point there…
It’s a religion
It’s definitely a sexual orientation
Wait, is that what cyber-sex is??
He supports Elon? He deserves all the hate he gets.
The President doesn’t respect any laws. Why should any of its citizens?
yeah, but that’s very different. PUS is loaded, whereas these people probably aren’t. Laws don’t apply to rich people.
yup.
as a side note though, that’s the first time I’ve seen the president of the United States shortened to PUS. I was always used to POTUS.
Yeah, I decided he’s bag of pus. So I shortened it.
We’re being harassed for having common sense
There’s a lot to unpack here.

People supporting Elon are definitely a cult. And considering the amount of real estate Elon has, I’d say they qualify as a religion according to Frank Zappa.
Ultra carbrain: terminal diagnosis.
The fact they don’t know (or pretend not to) why this is happening is the stupid part.
I’m about to eat $6k or some shit to get out of my Tesla lease early. Fuck Elon and the board that enables him.
I’m about to eat $6k or some shit
I’d choose the 6k ngl
I can’t think of a worse place to own a Cybertruck than Seattle, aside of course from areas with unpaved roads or any uneven terrain
Seattle roads are such a mess they might as well be unpaved lol. But yeah any time I see one here I wonder if they ever park or if they just drive in circles for a few hours then go back home
San Francisco, maybe?
Nah, there’s gobs of them out here. I see one pretty much every day. The bay area is not the leftist mecca it is made out to be, there are a LOT of hard right tech bros out here who are on the Elon/Thiel/Yarvin train. Sure, you’re gonna find more lefties who are more left than most places but the average is centrist lib, especially in SF proper.
It’s wrong to harass people and vandalize private property for your need for political vengeance. What does a guy driving his cybertruck to work have to do with your political positions? How did you become such terrible people?
i think it’s valid expression of opposition to the very real rise in authoritarian and facist-adjacent ideologies. and judging by the pictured replies, these particular tesla fans aren’t exactly the most well adjusted or compassionate people.
plus, and this is just me being staunchly “eat the rich”, it’s not like they can’t afford to fix it. the net-harm done is much lower when the “private property” in question is best described as a $100,000 toy.
it’d be a different situation entirely if the primary reasons for owning a swastitruck weren’t either ideological, infantile, or both. but c’est la vie, it’s the world we live in.
These trucks aren’t owned by Tesla but by private individuals who you don’t know. You just judge them on your own assumptions like racists judge people by the color of their skin. You are exactly the same.
i’m judging these specific people for the words they posted publicly, but go off queen
People posted that their vehicles are routinely vandalized and strangers act in an aggressive manner toward them. You support that and believe they deserve it. What part of that do i misunderstand?
i think actions spawn myriad reactions, some of them very predictable. this is one of those very predictable reactions.
i also think anyone who owns one of these $100,000 toys can afford to drive literally anything else, and thus completely avoid this problem.
what reasons are left for these folks to be whinging about this publically?
They are not toys but vehicles used for transportation. You know for people to live their lives. It’s examples like this why you can’t win an election and why most people do not want to support you. Good luck to you.
you’re missing the point entirely, but i reckon that’s your whole schtick. good luck to you as well! 💖
Die mad about it, fascist.
