A Tesla Cybertruck owner says there is a concerted effort to publicly shame people who drive the all-electric truck. He recounts several instances where people pointed and laughed at him while driving his Cybertruck.
Despite how he’s painted in the article, I actually quite like the guy. He bought an overpriced product but genuinely seems to like it and is a bit annoyed that people are laughing at him not because the product is expensive, but because of the association of the product with the manufacturers shitty politics.
It’d be like laughing at someone who bought an Apple Mac after the founder of the company has repeatedly been seen washing his feet in a toilet. Despite how overpriced and unnecessary the Mac is, people seem to like it and no one is making toilet associations with them. He’s asking for the same concession to be made for him.
Well I would, but I really hate the manufacturer, so I’m guessing I’m standing with my fellow mob of pointing and laughing. Sorry about that, my dear.
I genuinely believe that Apple’s fan culture is just as bad as Tesla’s fan culture… with the caveat that Apples founder wasn’t visibly trying to sway an election with misinformation.
Again, I see a cyber truck, I point and laugh. I see a Mac user, I raise an eyebrow but say nothing.

More like the founded buying cobalt from slaves and using factories that manufacturer their product with children. Which is the case for Apple.
