Rob Roth is a brand new Cybertruck owner from Alberta, Canada, and says his heart is broken after his truck completely fell apart less than 24 hours into ownership.
Rob adds that the Cybertruck bricked itself as he was attempting to defrost the truck before driving it.
Rob shared his story on the Tesla Cybertruck Canada group on Facebook and simply titled it “Heartbroken.”
Here is what he wrote…
“I picked up my Cyberbeast yesterday afternoon, drove two hours home, and had a blast driving it last night with friends and family. This morning, I defrosted it and drove to work. At lunchtime, the defrost did not engage(46% battery left), would not go into Drive or Reverse, started giving me errors/warnings, and then shut right down.”
This is not an ideal situation for a truck with a starting price of $165,999 in Canada. Continuing his post, Rob provides more details about his failed attempts to revive the truck.
“I Spent the next 4 hours on the phone with Tesla service, trying to revive it by “boosting” it. We did revive power, and some things activated, but others did not. Eventually, nothing worked…even with boosting. I went back to meet the tow truck driver, and we were able to get some power with boosting again (maybe it’s because we boosted frunk again?) and got it in some sort of emergency mode and was able to limp drive it onto the tow truck.”
What’s interesting here is that Rob only drove his Cybertruck for approximately two hours; however, he has already spent four hours trying to revive it.
I don’t know about you, but I would be unhappy if I had to spend twice as much time trying to solve the issue with my brand-new vehicle than the entire time I was able to drive it.
As for what exactly went wrong, Rob hasn’t yet received a definitive answer from Tesla but says he believes it has something to do with the truck’s heating system.
Rob continues to write…
“I am unsure what happened, but I noticed later at night that the fan noise under the dash seemed louder than before. I just assumed it was because of the cold temperature (-18C) (-0.4F), but maybe something else was going on?”
Tesla employs a heat pump on the Cybertruck to increase the heating and cooling efficiency. This is good for preserving battery power and range, but there are questions about how effective this system is in harsh environments.
Whatever the cause, Rob is not thrilled with the whole situation and continues to write…
“Anyhow, I sure hope Telsa makes me whole on this. I feel like spending this type of money and having this sort of hassle within 24 hours is unacceptable. In love to heartbroken on the same day.😭💔”
Finally, Rob concludes his post with a picture of his Cybertruck loaded onto a flatbed. Most people would be unhappy with this sight, but Rob doesn’t seem too bothered writing, “Note: My Cybertruck does look awesome on that tow truck!”
Overall, the Cybertruck appears to be failing its first test in the Canadian winter and at the same time, breaking some hearts.

Allow me to paraphrase this stupid argument:
In the past, our belief that crabs and lobsters could feel pain was only based on the fact that they would react to stimuli as if they were experiencing pain. That wasn't enough for us to not boil them. However, now we have detailed EEG scans which indicate that they likely experience pain in their brains, which suggests that they do experience pain after all, and that therefore we shouldn't boil them.
I hate science.

"What is truth? It is whatever I proclaim it to be! In declaring this, I demonstrate the highest freedom - the freedom from truth itself!"

Professor poor said that "potato" is spelled with an “e” at the end, so it must be true.
This tweet perfectly captures everything wrong with modern values — treating traditional life as something to be escaped rather than embraced, viewing contentment as failure, and measuring worth by ambition rather than virtue.
The man described has a wife, steady work, friends, community roots, and finds joy in simple pleasures. By traditional standards, he's living a good life. Only in our inverted modern world could this be presented as a cautionary tale.
What would this tweeter prefer? Constant striving for "more," serial relationships, rootless "networking," and endless "self-improvement"? This is exactly the kind of restless dissatisfaction that destroys communities.
Your brain on liberalism, folks. Absolute terminal stage modernism. May God have mercy on his dopamine-fried soul.

No man is farther to the right than Parmenides, who taught that all change is illusion, that true Being is eternal and unchanging. What could be more reactionary than declaring that all apparent progress, all supposed change, all movement away from the eternal truth is mere appearance and error?
The father of logic himself tells us that reality is One, unchangeable, and perfect — and that our senses deceiving us about change and progress are just that: deceptions. The first true philosopher was also the first true reactionary, seeing through the illusion of "progress" to the eternal truth beneath.
Modern "conservatives" debate policy while true reaction questions change itself. Parmenides didn't just reject specific changes — he rejected the very possibility of real change. Now that's what I call "based."

Someone asked me to elaborate on this claim about Parmenides. Let me explain why I find him so based:
Most reactionaries critique specific changes or long for particular traditions. But Parmenides makes the ultimate reactionary move — he demonstrates through pure logic that change itself is impossible, that what truly IS must be eternal and unchanging.
Think about what this means. Every "progressive" victory, every "reform," every supposed "improvement" — all mere illusion, shadows dancing on the wall while true Being remains perfect and unmoved. The entire project of modernity collapses if Parmenides is right.
"But Dr. Poor, aren't you just playing philosophy games? What does this have to do with actual politics?"
Everything. If change itself is illusion, then "progress" isn't just undesirable — it's literally impossible. All apparent changes are corruptions of our understanding, not improvements to reality. The most right-wing position possible is that leftist "progress" isn't even real.
Notice that this means true reaction isn't about "turning back the clock" — it's about seeing through temporal illusions to grasp eternal truth. We don't need to "return" to tradition because true tradition never left. We just need to clear our vision.
This is why I say no one is farther right than Parmenides. He doesn't just reject specific changes — he philosophically annihilates the possibility of real change itself. Liberals dance from revolution to revolution, seeking to "progress" beyond the world of yesterday while chanting and celebrating the superiority of the modern age. With slightly more wisdom, conservatives and lesser reactionaries cope and seethe about the successes of liberalism and how the West has fallen, wringing their hands about "fighting back" and planning their glorious "retvrn." Parmenides, our reactionary champion, simply points out that all that nonsense is logically impossible.
