Is this a joke? What else could be under that tarp? It even has a little flap for the plug.

I feel my ability to understand satire is being attacked by reality.

And I checked the comments and its a mix of musk riding:

"I don’t understand how people get so easily manipulated into hating someone that has done so much to change our life’s. Elon is great man and is doing great things for our country and uncovering so much corruption and honestly he needs more credit"

or thinking this is a joke:

"That’s not hiding the fact that there’s a swastikar under it"

Lmao, this is obviously a troll.

It's not even satire, just straight up trolling.

When you use the cover, guess what gets blocked? The cameras.

So no more sentry mode.

This just makes the cybertruck an even more attractive target.

That's a dust cover, not a waterproof tarp.

Ah, so the purpose is to trap in moisture to accelerate that coveted patina

Coveted Patina is also the less successful sequel to Stephen King's Needful Things.
