“It’s crazy that something like this upsets somebody so much that they decided, ‘Oh, I’m going to ruin that person’s day,” Evans told FOX 32.

This dude must not be up to date on current events about Trump and Musk.

They absolutely are. Diminishing their own actions as "reasonable/innocent" and others' as "hysterical" is a long practiced technique.

“On the tailgate in Gold Leaf, there is a representation of the signature of President Trump,” he said. “And I think that may have further inflamed the mental illness of the person that decided to do this to my vehicle.”

this loony cult member still wants to project mental illness on anyone who's not actively tongue fucking Trump's shitcovered taint. they absolutely know what they're doing, as the vehicle itself covered in trump shit is yet another cry for attention. It probably would be more subtle to light a pile of money on fire and scream "look at me, look at me, I'm a cool kid", at least then we wouldn't have to deal with these low poly shitwagons on the streets.

Classic DARVO tactics. You see them all the time when paying attention to conservatives.

The cybertruck owner was asking for it, owning a vehicle like that

Can confirm, I have a wild urge to dent the doors every time I see one.

Cybertrucks have ways to shut down vandalism is they really didn't want it.

Internet sleuths claim that they have identified the woman

This has never gone wrong before.

spoilerIf you have no idea, look up "Reddit finds the Boston Bomber"

That was when I joined reddit. What a wild time.

Woman caught on camera enhancing the appeal of Trump-themed Cybertruck

[–] RaoulDuke@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 week ago

She actually improved the vehicles appearance.

She was probably just confused. Cybertrucks are shit. She had to go, so she just, you know...

No harm no foul. How could they even tell something was added to the vehicle?

Fire works better than poop.

Acid works better than fire

[–] burntbacon@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I think it's easier to source iron oxide and aluminum oxide than it is any acid strong enough to melt a cybertruck.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

You don't have to melt it, all you need to do is stain it. The emotional damage is enough with these folks.

[–] burntbacon@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm just saying, melting it seems like much more fun.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Oh, for sure!

[–] Triumph@fedia.io 5 points 1 week ago

All efforts great and small.

I'm not a fan of destruction of people's property, even if I am okay with their death.

But like...rinse that shit off and move on?

"Here. You take this bag of shit and smear it on the house."

"Ugh, where the hell did you get all this?"

"I stole it... From Don Vito."
