A brilliant business man sabotages their own company? Also, the Tesla truck alone is evidence he is not a brilliant business man. The only thing that fugly thing is good for is preventing anyone who drives it from ever getting laid. So I guess he is brilliant for inventing male birth control, from that POV I could agree. |
Looks like it's happening again this Saturday. I stopped by. It was peaceful and funny to see a bunch of old folks rocking on the mean streets of Georgetown. Several cops sitting in their cars bopping to the music too. |

Not a Musk fan but the Cybertruck takes a lot of chutzpah to execute and stands out on its own, which is what most game changing designs do. There is nothing like it on the road and the first edition models will be collector’s items some day. Not for nothing but young kids, who have no knowledge of Musk’s politics, love it. My 4 year old son and his friends scream Cybertruck!!! every time they see one. They don’t do this for any other car. |
Kanye West was brilliant too |
Have you been on an executive team with him? They can't get rid of him fast enough. Definitely not a brilliant businessperson. |
You people have a problem. |
They said the same about the Pontiac Aztec. |
Yeah, kids do love garbage trucks. |

Remember the PT Cruiser lol? Or why about the Prowlwer. Don’t see any of those since the 90’s. |
But, getting back on topic.
Peaceful (but lighthearted) protests are going to gather more support than leftist goofballs in those stupid Guy Fawkes masks or MAGA morons rioting in the Capitol. Musk heavily submerging himself into DC politics, has got to be one of the dumbest corporate self-owns in a while. Turning off lefties who disproportionately purchase EV's while relying on the small number of EV-skeptic MAGAs is stupid. But that would assume there's a strategy to begin with. If past performance indicates, he'll move onto something else soon and leave it to some government schmuck (whoever is elected President in 2028) to pick up the broken pieces. |
Don’t let your hatred of Musk make you say things that have no bearing on reality. Famous rappers weren’t customized Aztecs or PT Cruisers. They weren’t making gold plated PT Cruisers. ![]() A lot of people, especially younger people, people of color, and people outside the US, think Cybertrucks are cool. The politically influenced tastes of old white liberals don’t dictate what’s cool in the world at large. It’s usually the opposite. For reference, see Tipper Gore. |
Trump announced today he will send those people seen protesting Teslas to the notorious El Salvadoran prison. (via CNN). So just don’t do it. Leave those cars alone. |
