    You shouldn’t be getting down voted.

    Whether Musk is a cunt or not, you’ve made a reasonable contribution to the discussion at hand.

    Lemmy is going to become a very boring echo chamber if we downvote for no other reason than “I don’t like that opinion”.

    Edit: getting downvoted for wrong think. You should take a look at yourselves

      Yeah, I was surprised how many down votes both of you got. It’s a straightforward contributory comment. You might not like the cyber truck, but that’s no reason to down vote.

        It was entirely nonsensical. Did not contribute anything to the conversation more than a flight of ideas. But yes, when 90 80% of votes are downvotes, it must be “them”.

        Edit: Here, I’ll take the time to write what would have been a useful addition:

        Cybertruck wait times reportedly stretched beyond four years at the time of first deliveries – based on 1 million pre-orders. That appears to be a significant pent-up demand in at least one model. KBB currently says Tesla sales in the U.S. were down 13.3% year over year, so I would assume something less than a 20% layoff, but understand a possible need to rebalance to meet the market.

          They said there is a wait list for the truck. I didn’t know that, and assuming it’s true, does imply demand. Demand for a good is directly tied to the health of a company. Seems to be related and contribute to the conversation, which is what I thought we used to determine if something is up voted.

            If someone telling you they are in a waitlist for a product, but don’t know if they actually want it, is useful - I can only hope it’s towards the unpredictable nature of Tesla customers, or perhaps the unreliability of Tesla themselves - even in this we cannot glean useful info.

            It was terrible. The 9 current upvotes leaves me sad at the reasoning ability of my neighbors…
