The decision to halt production of Tesla’s polarizing polygonal pickup marks the end of an error.
Elon Musk, in a post on X, has officially called time on the Cybertruck, stating that “Tesla will be winding down production of the Cybertruck at Gigafactory Texas around the middle of next year to make room for increased Cybercab production.”
Produced for less than four years, the polarizing pickup is seemingly dying as it lived, with the news being greeted in a flurry of replies in praise of the EV as well as deriding it. James Star, claiming to be a Tesla employee, posted that it was “the saddest news! Cybertruck (was) the best car Tesla sold,” right next to a user called Captain Ford who simply replied to Musk with “Fuck that shitbox.”
Why be worried? Why public shame? Why the directive? Why not look at alternatives now that usa is producing one less option for electric truck? Why make a truck political? Isn’t that exhausting to carry a list of things you don’t control around? Does writing on here give you a sense of control on elon musk? I don’t get it. I really don’t understand these extreme feelings towards objects or people. USA is an empire and they all fall eventually. Maybe this is how it falls. With these leaders and a bunch of divided angry people. Who cares? There’s more to life than truck company owners, political heads. Humans are greedy and selfish. Expect that they’ll do human things. They are far from perfect and capable of all kinds of ghengis khan type stuff.
It’s so refreshing to come across someone on Lemmy who’s cool and above it all. I, too, don’t really care about anything. We should form a club where we shout from the rooftops that we are misanthropes and have no conviction.
