There are loads of viable alternatives these days with both legacy auto manufacturers closing the gap and a raft of new EV manufacturers joining the market, mostly from China.
I sold my Model 3 last month and took delivery of a new Polestar 2. The only features that I’ve lost in the switch are the built in dashcam (had to install my own instead) and using my phone as a key (which is supposed to be fixed in the next software update). Other than that, the feature set and specification of the two cars is pretty similar. Except my new one has twice the battery capacity.
I just snagged a Mach-E GT (still arguably a Nazi car though) my co-worker has a Kia EV, and it seems pretty good. The Nissan Leaf is decent too.
Fair warning, range anxiety is real, but I’ve pretty much gotten over it at this point. I charge my car to 180mile of range, and I rarely get down lower than 130 in a week, so an EV with 120 miles of range would be sufficient, especially if you have a partner with an ICE or hybrid.
I would like to have an ev, but I don’t want to buy from a Nazi

Plenty of other good options. About to grab a used BMW i4 to replace my Model y perf.
Can you get polestar in the US?
