I agree with the sentiment (fuck Elon), but this is a shitty thing to do.
Not in posession of purchasers yet, so not hurting them directly, just Tesla. Further, while one can be excused wrt Elon for buying early Teslas, if one is buying a Cybertruck they almost definitely know who Elon is and what he represents.
Its not like it's a good vehicle. So you're likely buying it as a statement.
If someone buys model 3, yeah, I can believe they might have zero clue what Elon represents. They're good cars. But cybertruck? It is below crypto bros buying lambos.
