Tesla Robot Fulfills Its Destiny

Text on the meme

I'm embarrassed to be seen with you! That logo on your chest You want to fix Tesla's reputation? Fulfill your destiny

What it means

A person encounters a humanoid Tesla robot and criticizes the Tesla logo on its chest. Later, a mysterious man gives the robot a printed photo of Elon Musk and tells it to “fulfill your destiny,” prompting the robot to walk dramatically into the night. The joke mocks Tesla’s reputation and Elon Musk through an absurd sci-fi parody, set to Radiohead’s melancholic song “Fake Plastic Trees,” whose sadness makes the robot’s melodramatic departure funnier.
