Is it specifically the cybertruck people are calling swastikars, or is it all tesla cars?
All of them. The cybertruck is just the dumb swasticar.
Great. That way you won’t hear it, when the SS sneak up on you.
Is it ok to print Swasticar stickers and stick them on Tesla’s parked on the street?
The Nazis didn’t use the ‘Swastika’ per se, they used a specific type of swastika called the hooked cross or hakenkreuz. Calling the Nazi cross a swastika brings confusion and disrespects many cultures where the symbol has a meaning diametrically opposite to that of nazi ideology.
In english the Hakenkreuz was always called swastika. That’s the common usage and calling that wrong is pretty pointless.
You make a very good point that i have not considered yet. Thank your for bringing this to attention.
Indeed. Most people don’t know what a real Swastika is because of Nazi fuckheads. They don’t deserve to be able to continue using the term.
So yes that is all true.
However, the mental link of the name “Swastika” with the Nazis has had 90 years of reinforcement in popular culture.
If you want to perpetuate a meme that annoys Elon and damages the Tesla brand (because I think they still spend $0 on marketing) then:
- “Swasticars” is a very good phrase because it’s a portmanteau and everyone (in WEIRD nations) can work it out, have a little giggle, and then spread it as a meme.
- Explaining that it’s technically incorrect by going “well actually… (Pushes glasses up)” is not going to help spread the meme and is just being a bit pedantic.

Somehow this car looks like Trump
Who has Elon growing a toothbrush mustache on their bingo cards?
A musktache if you will.
He’ll need to get hair transplants first…
This looks better than the Cybertruck
I mostly agree but this is stupid
AI blends things together, for better or for worse. In this case, it’s not bad.
I thought so too!
It also fixes many of the issues with the cyber truck. That one has paint, it hasn’t got the stupid unified headlight, which isn’t legal in most parts of the world, and it’s a more traditional shape which means it would be easier to manufacture.
Still a swasticar though.
I’m swastisure he doesn’t give a fuck. This is peak slacktivism, on par with sharing a meaningless chain post on Facebook.
This leads to a “I don’t even know who you are…” moment in OP’s grand future confrontation with elon.
Tesla Swasticars Model SS
The GPS voice is Hitler screaming and yelling directions at you in German
Nah, they made the voice speak english with a German accent, but it keeps messing up the directions in roundabouts.
For some reason the GPS gets confused when directing you to take the third exit in a roundabout and keeps saying: “Take the third reich”
It can’t turn left… that’s why it has you take the third Reich.
And the indicators are a physical arm that repeatedly sticks straight out in a gesture similar to a Roman salute.
The orange engine light that alerts you to engine trouble is a star of david.
The Founders Edition is a limited production run of only the first 88 units built
Edit: and it comes in 14 package variants, naturally
Shitty cars, shitty company, ketamine addled fascist prick owner.
Still no “Full Self Driving” after claiming “soon” back in 2015…
I mean, the model 3 and Y would be great cars if it weren’t for Elon. Tesla, SpaceX, and the whole world would be much better off without him.
Edit: also I’m not talking about FSD, I think it’s bullshit and will continue to be bullshit for the foreseeable future. I like to drive my car.
Until self-driving tech is good enough that you can safely not have a human behind the wheel it isn’t really anything other than a toy.
As soon as you can remove humans from the equation you can have automated trucks, without even the capacity for a human driver, that’s where the real future is, not in owned vehicles that will always have, by definition, a driver in them anyway.
if he kept his promise of self driving and an economy model we would all be very uncomfortable right about now.
Oh he gave specific dates. And yet people still haven’t ridiculed him off the public stage.
Elon Musk isn’t a Nazi, FFS.
… Nazis could make cars.
VW means people’s car. Making nice cars is a socialism, apparently.
VW means people’s car.
That’s not wrong, but Volk is more nuanced than that. Think somewhere between folk and ethnicity, so it’s still fascist.

Yeah, you are right.
He’s a cheap American imitation Porsche family.
Ah, he’s the Elonazi of cars.
Do they come in reich hand drive?
Fair. I’ll stop calling Swastikars Swastikars, or was it Swasticars? I think it’s Swastikars.
Anyway, someone cooked up the word Hakencruisers and I really loved it.Wankpanzer is pretty good too.
Better, I’d imagine.
“Oh, here comes a hakencruiser…”
“A hack and what?”
Versus “look at that fucking wankpanzer. Fucking wanker.” Can’t go much simpler than that.
I wish the US had viable alternatives to Tesla… Most mass market cars here barely match the tech, and still want $$$.
There’s loads of electric vehicles on the market in the US with similar tech to the Tesla. What tech do you want anyway, the most useful thing that Tesla has a reverse charging which is not at all unique.
What are you talking about? Ford has better battery chemistry, Chevy has better interiors, Rivian makes a better truck, and those are just American brands.
