I hope the normies -- or a growing percentage of them -- are figuring out that -
The MARKET should make choices about what gets bought and sold, not politicians and government bureaucrats. SOME electric vehicles are fine, but FORCING them on everyone as they're working towards is insane. "Everything government touches turns to shit."
The push for electric vehicles has to do with controlling and REDUCING the population (can't use cash at public chargers -- only "controllable" credit and digital money; the electric grid can barely handle things NOW and will NOT be able to handle a huge increase in EVs; eliminating fossil fuels will destroy farming, transportation of goods, and greatly reduce the output of many things that require petroleum to produce, including medicines - some of which are actually needed - and zillions of other things that cannot be made, or made economically, without oil).
EV's do more HARM TO THE ENVIRONMENT than do internal combustion vehicles (lithium and other mining and refining; battery disposal; coal-fueled power plants to make the electricity for the cars; the added half-ton or more for the battery degrades roads faster, grinds down tires faster, and means EVs actually USE more energy to accelerate than non-EVs do).
Especially when they catch on fire, eh?
Yes. And that not only harms the environment (and sometimes kills people): it's getting a bunch more costly to ship EVs to market since at least two container ships carrying zillions of EVs have caught fire and sunk in the last year or two.
