Swasticars
(lemmy.ml)
I heard Brock Turner drives one . . .
Brock Turner, the rapist?
Bigot boxes
This has layers
NGL that swasticar is much better than the rest of their lineup
If it wasn't a tesla it would look great
NGL, that AI generated cyber truck looks far better than the real deal
That is an SUV
He would call it an XUV or something
卐UV
In most othe countries, this would be a van
This is the vehicle anonymous men in black suits use take you away in, like, every dystopian movie and video game ever.
The satnav keeps telling me to take the third reich...

It's so nice of elongated Muskrat and the orange Pumpkin to be the first of their kind, to publically display Swasticars in such bold fashion - in recent times
This looks better than the Cybertruck
Any other company made it... I would totally want this!
...But I will not support that fucking Nazi currently tearing down my country.

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.
I personally prefer fash barge.
Is it ok to print Swasticar stickers and stick them on Tesla's parked on the street?
Ugh.. please reconsider. Many of us bought model 3/Ys years ago because they were a viable option to ditch gas vehicles. It’s bad enough that I’m stuck with this car for a while longer, I really don’t need it getting vandalized making people think I’m a fucking fascist.
They make bumper stickers that say "I bought this before I knew Elon was a fascist", if that helps
Yes but if I put that on my car then the group more well known for vandalizing cars will want to vandalize it.
Maybe you should put that on a sticker on your own car :-)

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.
This really is not a "well, actually..." situation.
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.

Who has Elon growing a toothbrush mustache on their bingo cards?
A musktache if you will.

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.
