Tesla pulls out all the stops as Cybertruck sales grind to a halt (www.arenaev.com)

Tesla Cybertruck appears to be facing significant sales challenges. After initial hype faded, and over a million reservations turned out to be as real as unicorns, Tesla is now enabling leasing options and free upgrades to move its inventory of the futuristic pickup truck. The company's recent silence on the Cybertruck, even omitting it from their earnings call, speaks volumes about the situation.

Tesla initially projected sales of 500,000 Cybertrucks annually and established production capacity at the Giga Texas for 250,000 units per year. After working through the initial reservation backlog with fewer than 40,000 deliveries, the automaker is now struggling to sell the remaining vehicles.

Somewhat ironically, they understaffed the airport they all fly through, and yet somehow it was innocent civilians that died.

I detest this timeline. I am disgusted, really. I've never quite understood hate, though; to me hate feels like making a solemn vow that subject of my hate will always have power over me. Because hate is irrational. It overpowers reason. But it is only through reason and logic I find myself.

The catch 22 is fear. Fear also deprives is of reason, but it also shames us, lessens us. Just as Yoda taught us, "Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering."

I don't wanna suffer anymore. But I don't want anyone else to suffer, either. Not even those responsible; I just want them gone from our timeline.

Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering. Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny. Consume you, it will.
