"...Designed to appeal to the deepest techno-narcissistic yearnings of the tech genius class of Americans. . . a very small demographic. It’s all sleek chrome and glass, with overtones of UFO. Cutting Edge! Transhuman chic! America is probably as sick of the tech fantasia trend as it is with Woke ideology. We’re beginning to grok that the future isn’t what it was cracked up to be. I predict the Tesla Diner will soon become the target of flash mobs seeking Rolex watches, Hermès Birkin handbags, and the keys to hot cars parked in its modest lot..."
My eye tells me this is a fine looking structure, and the author seems to have more of an issue with where the thing is located and the surrounding clientele rather than the structure itself.
I don't agree with the author's evaluation, and while I admire Musk in his SpaceX efforts (Not a fan of Tesla, but that is more the issue with EV than with Teslas themselves) I don't think I would like or dislike this structure based on anything to do with Musk.
If I saw this passing by, I would think it was pretty cool looking. It is somewhat reminiscent of the Starship itself, IMO.
