A Facebook group for Cybertruck owners is full of videos and photos of passersby and other drivers flicking them off, leaving notes that say “WHAT’S ELON’S CUM TASTE LIKE?,” and “NAZI CAR,” and people kicking their cars, throwing slices of cheese at it, etc.

I like this “throwing slices of American cheese” at Cybertrucks. It’s barely even food, so it’s not really that wasteful. I’m sure the synthetic oilly shit has a wonderful reaction with that unprotected stainless steel. It’s also fucking hilarious - “hey police, someone threw cheese at my car, I’m in fear for my life.”
“hey police, someone threw cheese at my car, I’m in fear for my life.”
This had me chuckling.
Remember that to these people the law exists to oppress.
“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”
Just wanted to say that the hate on American cheese is unjustified. American cheese is just cheddar that has been heated to 170f (iirc) for long enough to kill bacteria and make it shelf-stable. They add an emulsifier (again, iirc) to help it bind better and have a more pleasant texture.
All other criticisms of America are valid, but the cheese doesn’t deserve the hate it gets.
You forgot to mention that it’s watered down. That’s what the emulsifier is for, to make the oils in the cheese mix well with the added water. The concept is fine - for some applications - if it were only that, but this is hyper-processed American food we’re talking about here. Gotta pad out that ingredient list:
CHEDDAR CHEESE (CULTURED MILK, SALT, ENZYMES), SKIM MILK, MILKFAT, MILK PROTEIN CONCENTRATE, WHEY, CALCIUM PHOSPHATE, SODIUM PHOSPHATE, CONTAINS LESS THAN 2% OF MODIFIED FOOD STARCH, SALT, LACTIC ACID, MILK, SORBIC ACID AS A PRESERVATIVE, OLEORESIN PAPRIKA (COLOR), ENZYMES, CHEESE CULTURE, ANNATTO (COLOR).
The above is the standard Kraft singles ingredient list, and at a glance is the shortest one I saw on their website.
IMHO, it has three purposes:
- a grilled cheese on cheap white bread with enough butter to guarantee an acid reflux episode
- melted on Chef Boyardee ravioli
- on a slice of apple pie
If your Kraft singles are too precious, I think the Dollar Tree brands stray even further from gods light.
Wait wtf you put American cheese on your apple pie?!?
Are you from the US? I’ve never heard of that, and honestly I’m horrified and intrigued
I think it might be an “older people in the south” thing. (Like all boomers and older I’ve talked to about it know about it, usually not younger) I worked at a diner for a bit, and it would be Silent Generation types that would order it.
It’s pretty good, but real cheddar would be better. It’s that similar salty/sweet combo that makes French fries and a McFlurry better than sex.
American Cheese is not actually cheese. It is cheese food product. Even deli American cheese is not cheese.
Legally they can’t label it as cheese, but get anyway with cheese being part of the name.
Because it’s made out of cheese. Legally if you take something that is cheese and use it as an ingredient in another food, then it is no longer “cheese”, it is “cheese food”. The first ingredient is cheddar
pleasant texture
I’d go with “rubbery”.
“Pleasant” in the context of what it would be otherwise. My understanding is that, without the emulsifier, it would be crumbly and kinda chalky, and not hold a form very well.
Literally this is why it gets hate. It’s not remotely Cheddar. Real Cheddar is deliberately none of these things. I love a crunchy cheese crystal and a crumbly organic texture. To each their own, but it’s not Cheddar, barely cheese. I’d have it in a burger, but only because so few places will melt real cheese properly. Brie is pretty good in a burger. Is Somerset Brie really Brie? Time for a Frenchman to tell me to gtfo…
I didn’t say it was cheddar. I said it was made from cheddar. It’s decidedly not cheddar, which is why it’s not called “cheddar”.
“almost” Cheese product…
they must be lacktoes intalarant.
I’m sure the synthetic oilly shit has a wonderful reaction with that unprotected stainless steel.
Not to mention that depending on force of the throw, and precise angle of the impact of cheese slice, the thing could start falling apart.
… which now I think about it, also explains the:
“hey police, someone threw cheese at my car, I’m in fear for my life.”
Post his picture everywhere so everyone knows who he is… and he never has to pay for his own drinks again, I suppose?
Cybertruck owners are huge fragile bitches, who’d have known?
In a video taken from a Cybertruck of a man throwing American cheese slices at the windshield of a Cybertruck
They better be throwing 64 slices of American cheese.
88…
These protestors in front of Tesla Service Centers need to see what a majority looks like…A couple hundred CTs surrounding them might do it.”
This guy thinks the majority means “whoever shows up with weapons”
He also thinks there are a couple hundred cybertrucks nearby. Thinking may not be his strong suit.
Hey if you’re near a Tesla storage lot, there probably IS a couple hundred cybertrucks nearby.
Sitting there, having their wheels stolen and rotting since nobody is buying them, but that’s still technically nearby.
Or just unsold sitting in an abandoned mall parking lot
American cheese used to cost more than eggs. Now cheese is 10x cheaper than eggs. New throwables just dropped.
Cheese frisbee!
WHAT’S ELON’S CUM TASTE LIKE?
Lmfao
probably like cheap government cheese.
“cheese”
We only serve “cheese product” in the US of A.
the only way these people will learn [is] if they are shamed
Oh projection…
Oh projection…
I don’t think you really understand the words you use.
You’re saying shaming nazis is shameful?
edit jesus lemmy, you’re this stupid? there’s no-one blaming anyone of being anything. there’s nothing being “projected” here. I guess the downvoters feel rage for me pointing out that only pretentious morons use terms they dont’ actually understand to seem smarter than they are
You should probably read the context around a comment before replying to it.
Why?
I’m not going to transcribe the article for you dude.
What you mean is that you don’t actually have an argument. You just pretend like you do.
No argument needed here.
Oh so you don’t need to say what someone is projecting when making an argument about someone projecting?
Makes so much sense. Not at all a desperate measure by the thickheaded pseudointellectuel who said “omg lol that’s projection”
You saying that is the same as when Flat-Earthers cry “do your own research”.
Cybertrucks are ugly, poorly-built, and poorly-designed vehicles. These protesters are doing any potential owners who get deterred from wasting their money on them a favor.
I test drove one because I had to know. It was awful. I’ve driven dozens of different vehicles and it by far is the worst I’ve ever driven. It’s just stupid. Everything about it is stupid.
It also felt satisfying to cost Tesla like $10 in electricity and wear and tear.
EDIT: Also, obligatory…
Throwing cheese at cars is my new favorite form of antifascist protest!
Dicks buying cybershits deserve some mockery.
I was an adult when I learned that some people say flick instead of flip.
So, they acting at the same level as Nazi…
Nazis are well known for having thrown slices of cheese at things.
If only throwing cheese, they vandalizing cars and charges
Throw a couple more words in there and you might have a coherent sentence.
Them is am very smort! All smort people is am know!
At this point you might want to look up what level the Nazis were at.
Buying a Cybertruck: a choice
Being Jewish, a woman, transgender, disabled, etc, etc: not a choice
Your right I’m gonna hold up a small sign somewhere out of the way to fight Nazism. I have a feeling that reading the sign will hurt the Nazis feelings and that will really deter them. Plus people will appreciate that I didn’t disturb anyone at all. /s
Dude this is a pretty mild form of protest.
I sympathize with the people who bought the car not realizing he’s a Nazi asshole. But considering his treatment of workers and general anti-repair attitudes have been well known for a while. I’m not gonna sympathize too hard.
Leaving notes…committing genocide, yeah they’re interchangeable really.
See, Nazis were objectively bad, and deploramobile owners FEEL these people are bad, do they must be the same.
