A Facebook group for Cybertruck owners is full of videos and photos of passersby and other drivers flicking them off, leaving notes that say “WHAT’S ELON’S CUM TASTE LIKE?,” and “NAZI CAR,” and people kicking their cars, throwing slices of cheese at it, etc.

      Buying a Cybertruck: a choice

      Being Jewish, a woman, transgender, disabled, etc, etc: not a choice

        I don’t think that’s the distinction.

        the distinction is throwing cheese at a fucking death trap of a car is not even remotely “the same level” as advocating for the extermination of groups of people, regardless of whether those groups are based on choices or immutable characteristics. you have to be actually cartoonishly insane to even think this is even comparable to anything associated with nazis.

        another distinction is that nazis do and advocate for abhorrent shit, and anything done to a nazi is therefore self defense.

      Nazis are well known for having thrown slices of cheese at things.

      Your right I’m gonna hold up a small sign somewhere out of the way to fight Nazism. I have a feeling that reading the sign will hurt the Nazis feelings and that will really deter them. Plus people will appreciate that I didn’t disturb anyone at all. /s

      Dude this is a pretty mild form of protest.

      I sympathize with the people who bought the car not realizing he’s a Nazi asshole. But considering his treatment of workers and general anti-repair attitudes have been well known for a while. I’m not gonna sympathize too hard.

        See, Nazis were objectively bad, and deploramobile owners FEEL these people are bad, so they must be the same.

          deploramobile

          I’m on your side but there’s no need for that kind of language.

          they’re called swasticars
