    From the US Department of Justice:

    Hate Crime: At the federal level, a crime motivated by bias against race, color, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, or disability.

    So is their argument that owning a Cybertruck is a disability? Because they might have a point there…

    The President doesn’t respect any laws. Why should any of its citizens?

    I can’t think of a worse place to own a Cybertruck than Seattle, aside of course from areas with unpaved roads or any uneven terrain

      Seattle roads are such a mess they might as well be unpaved lol. But yeah any time I see one here I wonder if they ever park or if they just drive in circles for a few hours then go back home

        Nah, there’s gobs of them out here. I see one pretty much every day. The bay area is not the leftist mecca it is made out to be, there are a LOT of hard right tech bros out here who are on the Elon/Thiel/Yarvin train. Sure, you’re gonna find more lefties who are more left than most places but the average is centrist lib, especially in SF proper.

      People supporting Elon are definitely a cult. And considering the amount of real estate Elon has, I’d say they qualify as a religion according to Frank Zappa.

    let’s say I hypothetically sprayed these down with salt water

    I know they used to have issues with surface rust, do they still have that?

        Hydrogen peroxide works pretty well. Especially the high concentration stuff they sell for hydroponics.

      Hypothetically are you going to carry salt water e everywhere with you? Seriously?

      Ita so much easier to carry small sachets of salt in tour pocket and way more discreet to tear open, pour into your palm and just accidentally put it all over the car as you walk past.

    Conservatives are always talking about being “Alpha Males” and the first thing they do here is cry to Daddy Musk that people are being mean to them and can’t Daddy punish all the meanies for them?

    Anybody have a link where I can buy those stickers? So I can keep them in a drawer safe and sound, of course.
