For like 3 hours, it was glorious as my friend group wondered what part of the Cybertruck could have spontaneously combusted.
Then video came out and there's colorful lights and we still weren't sure.
It took a official report before we accepted it was a car bomb.
*bomb car
All I read is the truck bed was filled with flammables. ' Is there a believable source for
A. Whether the driver started the fire or it was sparked on accident.
B. If it was not intentional, what was the actual target?
Some surprisingly low end explosives for a decorated green beret guy with his level of access. Fireworks and petrol cans?
I’m still not sure if it was an intentional car bomb or if he was transporting fireworks to use later that night and something about the car set them off.
A fully enclosed in non-air conditioned truck bed with a black lid in Las Vegas heat perhaps?
Is still probably intentional, otherwise it’s one of the more epic Darwin Awards.
Edit: Autocorrect stole my un from air conditioned.
He was shot in the head prior to the explosion going off. Seems unlikely that sequence of events was accidental.
Yeah i just found this out late last night though
I actually, genuinely thought it was an accidental fire.
Speaks to the shit reputation those shit trucks deservedly have. But also how dumb of a location for an intentional fire.
See that's the thing.
Is a trunk/bed full of fireworks and gas average cyber truck stupidity or a real lazy attempt at arson/terrorism.
I think it might have been more about the message a burning cybertruck, in front of a trump hotel, right by the trump sign, sends, than it was about the violence. Especially since the person is military trained and knew this wasn't going to go all OKC federal building.
The cyber truck is exactly what I would expect from someone whos only job experience is memes and shitposts. A rolling dumpster fire, mocked by everyone.
Eh, my kids think they're cool, so they have the K-6 market cornered.
No offense to your kids specifically, but children are dumb as fuck.
No offense taken. To them, being "different" is enough, unless "different" gets you bullied, facts just get in the way.
Kids aren't dumb, just inexperienced.

Trekkies everywhere: Did somebody say....self destruct sequence‽
My first thought was literally "was it a bomb or did the batteries ignite?"
The Delorean fan in me loves the asthetic and used to get jealous.
Cyber trucks being POS deathtraps that basically fall to pieces when you breath on them, their inability to do anything a normal truck can do, and the fact they make you bleed touching an door alleviated that completely.
So thanks for making them embarrassing junkers, Elon.

I almost agree with you, but the subtle changes made from the concept to reality make it not even look cool like it could've
For the comparison.
"The future should look like the future." - Elon Musk
The cybertruck future looks like 1982's Blade Runner.
That's highly insulting to Blade Runner, which had very stylish vehicles.
It looks like a shell on an El Camino in a straight-to-video 1980s Mad Max ripoff.
"car"
Self controlled IED
Ol kekius dick suckius made the shittiest car in existence
If Trump were already in office I would still think they were covering it up with the claims of explosives.
I WANT to give him that credit, but he's never made anything in his life.
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.
SpaceX hasn't killed anyone, incidentally it's also the company musk has the least power over.
I wouldn't necessarily call those two facts "incidental". I'd be pretty confident calling it "cause and effect".
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?
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
Cops will say any damn thing that lets them lick the boot
Cops and simping for the rich, name a better duo
Yeah, it would have been worse if it went off inside something valuable
Pedestrians should be thankful that the windows gave out so easily, otherwise the body panels might've turned into giant shrapnel.
