Remember that non electric cars are still dangerous too. I saw a gas car wreck today on the side of the interstate that had 2 firetrucks, an ambulance and about 3 cop cars. That isn't going to make the same level of national attention as this is.

News sites like to over dramatize green energy dangers and will tell you that birds running Into windmills is a massive issue and ignore that statistically fossil fuels cause ~50x more bird deaths per unit of energy than windmills (iirc).

Yes, the cybertruck sucks and probably should be banned, but it's still green energy and you can't let it distract you from the benefits of all electric vehicles.
