Paranoia: Should paranoiacs be freely permitted to purchase Cybertrucks?

[GammaGlobulin]

Dear Folks,

 

Everyone, by now, is aware of the most recent mental-illness-induced truck-related fiasco in the United States, a place where not all receive the medical treatment and support they should have, and probably deserve, as taxpayers.

 

Unfortunately, in the mainstream news, very little serious analysis is provided to us consumers by the air-heads at such news outlets as Fox and Friends.

 

Here is a serious analysis, provided by one of my Favorite Geeks, which sheds light on the dangers of paranoia.

 

In my view, one must be mentally unstable to even consider buying a Cybertruck, if for no other reason than the fact that it is made of stainless steel, just as Superman was the Man of Steel.  This speaks to one’s grandiosity in such circumstances as this one.

 

This video is very short, and we can actually learn quite a bit from the second-half of this video.  For example, if our friends notice that we are becoming a bit overly paranoid, then our friends will be more ready to intervene before we, too, rent a Cybertruck, and then run amok.

 

So, first, please enjoy this great video analysis.

Then, share your thoughts.

What turned a special-forces soldier, one who seemed to have been doing all the right things in life, to suddenly drive his Cybertruck down the wrong path in life?

 

 

I knew you would enjoy this Topic, and this amazing vid.

 

Best regards,

Gamma

 

No: I do not suffer from paranoia nor from delusions of grandeur, any more than most of you.  I feel sorry to see another human being who did not get the treatment to which he was entitled, after serving his country so bravely and gallantly.

 

Also, this video makes mention of China and Drones, and so I know you will appreciate it.

Cybertruck Bomber to Ex: My Tesla Makes Me Feel ‘Like Batman’
 

The Cybertruck bomber shared a rave review for the Tesla car he later blew up in Las Vegas on New Year’s Day, writing that the futuristic vehicle had him feeling like a superhero.

Matthew Livelsberger, 37, messaged his ex-girlfriend Alicia Arritt in the days before the explosion that killed him and injured six others outside the Trump International Hotel, according to the Denver Gazette.

“I rented a Tesla Cybertruck. It’s the s---,” he texted Arritt on December 29 after renting the Tesla truck in Denver. 

“I feel like Batman or halo,” he added seven minutes later, referencing the sci-fi military video game.

“How fast is it?” Livelsberger’s ex asked of the Cybertruck.

“Ungodly,” he replied.

The Gazette wrote that Arritt, a single mother, was surprised to hear from the U.S. Army Green Beret as she and Livelsberger had broken up three years before.

“I just want everyone to know that Matt was the kindest man I ever knew,” she told the publication. “He got me through a difficult time.” 

She said she had no idea why he would blow up the vehicle, and knew him as an honorable man who had bought his mother a house when she fell ill. She described Livelsberger as a conservative who loved his country, but claimed his behavior changed when he returned from a Middle East tour of duty after suffering a traumatic brain injury. (She also said he had two back surgeries stemming from his years as a paratrooper.)

Arritt, from Colorado Springs, said she was an Army nurse stationed in Germany when she met Livelsberger in 2018 after he was divorced from his first wife, Sara. 

The New York Post reported that the soldier’s second wife broke up with him on December 26 after allegedly discovering he had cheated on her.

Neighbors said Livelsberger and his second wife recently had a baby.

“He seemed like a normal guy. His wife is awesome, too. I never expected anything like that. I would never have thought it would have been him,” Cindy Helwig told the Gazette.

He didn't buy anything.   The truck was rented.

I knew that.

However, IF I had tried to include all pertinent data in the Topic Headline....then.....

I would be banned for contravening rules which, as I do recall, I have justifiably been warned about.

 

I would never, again, knowingly do such a thing.

 

Therefore, please bear with me.

I had AI edit the OP text. Still not a very coherent passage, but at least a bit easier to comprehend now:

 

Dear Folks,

 

By now, everyone is aware of the recent tragic truck-related incident in the United States, where mental illness appears to have played a role. It’s a stark reminder that not all individuals receive the medical treatment and support they need—or deserve—despite being taxpayers.

 

Unfortunately, mainstream media outlets like Fox and Friends rarely provide in-depth analysis, leaving us with shallow coverage of serious issues.

 

Thankfully, one of my favorite “geeks” has provided a thoughtful and serious analysis that sheds light on the dangers of paranoia.

 

In my view, someone would have to be mentally unstable to even consider purchasing a Cybertruck. If for no other reason, its stainless steel body—similar to Superman’s “Man of Steel” persona—speaks to a sense of grandiosity that seems out of place in this context.

 

This video is brief, but it offers valuable insights, particularly in the second half. For instance, if our friends start noticing signs of us becoming overly paranoid, they’ll be more likely to intervene before we too decide to rent a Cybertruck and head down a dangerous path.

 

So, please take a moment to watch this excellent video analysis, then share your thoughts. What could have driven a special forces soldier—someone who appeared to be living a stable, purposeful life—to suddenly take his Cybertruck down such a destructive road?

 

I knew you’d appreciate this topic and the insightful video.

 

Best regards,

P.S. No, I do not suffer from paranoia or delusions of grandeur, at least no more than most of you! I do feel sympathy for another human being who, despite his brave and gallant service to his country, did not receive the treatment he clearly needed.

 

Also, this video touches on topics such as China and drones, which I know you’ll find intriguing.

My original version is far better, less machine-like, and far less boring.

Need I go on?

Sometimes, they really are after you.

 

I doubt we'll ever find out in this case, but the wingnut conspiracy sites are having a field day.  Google "gravitic propulsion systems".

I would disagree on all points. But, if you wish, please go on. I am here listening to every word.

According to the wingnuts, he left behind a few notes and sent some to a few influencers as well. 

 

It's almost as if he didn't want some alphabet agency to write his story...

He seems like he was a very troubled individual, like so many others in the US.
 

Hard to really piece things together in any logical way when someone has serious mental health issues.

Personally, I would never rent or own a Cybertruck. IMO only people who rhyme with anchors would.

 

I suppose the perpetrator though the combination of stored battery energy, and increased payload of explosive ( 2500 lb vs 1860 lb for a Ford Ranger ) would make a more dramatic statement for posterity.
