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.

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

At this point you might want to look up what level the Nazis were at.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 weeks ago

oh yeah they're known for vandalizing ... jews? what the fuck are you sniffing right now?

Buying a Cybertruck: a choice

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

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago

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.

Leaving notes...committing genocide, yeah they're interchangeable really.

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

deploramobile

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

they're called swasticars

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

Sorry, that name stuck with me before the salute happened.

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.
