A Tesla Cybertruck owner says there is a concerted effort to publicly shame people who drive the all-electric truck. He recounts several instances where people pointed and laughed at him while driving his Cybertruck.
I’ve pointed and laughed at a couple of Cybertrucks. It’s hard to really capture how funny they look in motion in person. That feeling of “this was drawn by a kindergardener” hit me so much harder the first couple times I saw a real one moving.
I think it’s because it’s stupid looking enough that the brain doesn’t even classify it as a vehicle, it’s just some weird contraption that isn’t supposed to act like a vehicle does, so it’s an uncanny valley effect.

Looks more like an attempt at a low polygon 3d model to me.
