How the fuck do you write an article about the failed Cybertruck and not acknowledge Elon’s political bullshit impacting Tesla sales?!?
Dishonest shit.
Biggest takeaway; the media is still in denial.
The media is still ~~in denial~~ receiving money from the right.
That's the only sentence acknowledging the MANY mechanical failures, too.
Eh. Even if Musk still had his Iron Man in real life image the cyber truck would still be a complete failure.
Saying it's a shitty car and a failure by only looking at it as a car seems like good journalism. This isn't a good product that failed because people don't like Musk anymore.
Well yes, but if you want to explain why it flopped you devinetively have to mention Elon Musk Teslas sales overall dropped everywhere around the world by up to 50%.
