    Who cares. Electric Cars aren’t a solution to anything, and if climate change was actually the priority of any government the discussion would be phasing out personal Automobiles by 2030, not talking about EVs.

      Dumb dumb dumb.

      “Hospitals to enact rule compelling doctors and surgeons to wash hands.”

      “Who cares? That won’t get rid of all bacteria and viruses existing, just reduce infection rates and improve the entire healthcare industry.”

        Washing hands is a solution to patients dying after doctors perform autopsies. Electric cars exist to save the automobile industry which is an industry and societal structure that shouldn’t exist in the first place.

      The religion of insanely expensive remote combustion vehicles is pure entertainment gold

      Our entire cities are built wrong for that approach. I’m with you on the spirit, I mean, building suburban sprawl post-2000 should be a literal crime with jail time. But the fact is that our cities are what they are. Suburbia is built for cars, and there’s a crap load of it that people will still be living in post-2030.
