The Cybertruck weighs almost three tons, so its enormous weight means it consumes an absurdly high amount of energy. Senseless waste that we as a society cannot afford. Add to that the sharp-edged construction: a safety disaster. The truck perfectly illustrates where the anti-social policies of the last few decades have led us: a few rich people drive well-armored into the disaster – and take everyone with them.

-Hendrik Fauer, one of the activists

At least it is electric. Throw the paint on a Dodge Ram 3500 that dwarfs the Cyber truck AND burns oil.

This is like protesting at a small free range chicken farm when there’s an industrial chicken farm right next door.

This is an odd argument to make for a vegan. Because both of those farms need dismantling. Just like electric AND gas cars need to be phased out. While I can agree all these things do inequal damage, it’s STILL damage. Electric cars are a step but absolutely NOT a solution to climate change. Removing gas from the situation is well enough, we need mass transit and rebuilt infrastructure.

It’s wise to protest the placebo so people start seeking the cure.

Don’t make the perfect the enemy of the good.

I came SOOO close to putting that idiom in my response because I could see it a mile away. But what I, and the protestors themselves are saying, is that a electric cyber truck isn’t even “good”.
