"The future should look like the future." - Elon Musk

The cybertruck future looks like 1982's Blade Runner.

Now please all aboard the SpaceX rocket everybody! A 6 barrel revolver with a single bullet is added for a fun game of Russian roulette. Just to out your mind at ease, the gun is not the biggest threat to your life.

akchually this can be legitimately spinned in favour of tesla

police are already saying that the explosion wasn’t as bad because it went off inside a cybertruck

Pedestrians should be thankful that the windows gave out so easily, otherwise the body panels might've turned into giant shrapnel.

Or that the guy wasn't good at bombs. If it has been filled with ANFO they would have been identifying victims from tiny parts and investigating by video evidence. Many in the hotel would have been killed

Except in the case of an accidental fire, apparently the doors lock down and trap the drivers? That’s what I took away.

How is that better?

While parked if the car no longer detects a key it locks. It's still easy to open from inside. Emergency services can gain entry with an angle grinder

I'm sure during a collision they unlock

In this case I think the key went offline due to the explosion

If Trump were already in office I would still think they were covering it up with the claims of explosives.

conspiracy in my opinion: that guy was shot in the head and dumped into that car and then blown up for threatening to out Trump or Musk for some dirty dirty shit.

Someone threatened a powerful person and then the powerful person made sure to retaliate in a highly public way which would link their own brand to the murder?

Sometimes I wonder why my conservative family thinks that liberals are just as conspiratorial as conservatives, then I come across the comment you responded to and go "yeaaaah still don't agree but I see where you would think that" lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I hope it’s not as bad

If the stop the steal people and the flat earth people all appreciate being a part of an “in group“, I wonder what the liberal version is

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

It's definitely not as bad, I'm just saying that it helps enable whataboutism

Well that's the most fun conspiracy I've seen yet. Unfortunately it doesn't work as there is video of the vehicle stopping, no one getting in or out, then it exploding

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ummm, didn't musk actually just hold a snake oil press party were he had people remotely drive his vehicles and told the sycophants it was perfect safe robot magic driving the cars?

Kind of fucks your rebuttal there... What else you got?
