“Simp” has been in use as Mega-City One slang since the 80s. It is a subculture of people who have checked out of society and act like simpletons. See, for example, Megazine #15 and, more recently Prog 2207. This was really leaned into with Jack Point: The Simping Detective.
It… really does not. The cybertruck looks like the sad compromise of a too low polygon budget for a 80s game. The JD aesthetic is robust (*) and thick, sure, but not minimalistic.
(*) to which I mean the extent in that the Cybertruck looks robust.
Which is just a classic musky thing to do. Say some BS that barely passes the “as long as you don’t know anything about what I’m talking about, then it might sound right!”-test, and simps abound to make the bullshit asymmetry even more asymmetric.
PS: I’m sorry. I have blocking filters for “Elon” and “Trump”. Too many fucking morons with megaphones these days.
Why is he a simp, I don’t understand.

In a finer, better timeline, there was a Judge Dredd movie directed by Terry Gilliam
Now that would have been one Hell of a film! And Gilliam would have had simps in it.
Completely missed this extra layer, today I am the simp.
