“EV” is modern day gaslighting.
They were called battery vehicles in the 1980’s
It’s not something remarkably new.
Electric vehicles go back to the 1800s!
I believe that ,when there was an upcoming choice between electric vehicles and ones with internal combustion engines, John D Rockefeller intervened. His oil was used for heating and lighting but he saw an opportunity in motor vehicles.
So, he leaned on the legislators to force electric vehicles to require a safety certificate of some sort. Electricity is dangerous! Consequently, the extra bureaucracy put up the price of electric vehicles and they never took off. John D laughed all the way to the bank, again.
Nevermind the fact that gas and diesel is actually a better medium for storing and transporting energy than batteries. Case in point - I can fill up my tank in just a few minutes. How long does it take to charge at a super charger? And what do you do when the power goes out? Oh yeah…start a gas or diesel fired generator…
I am not promoting electric cars but think back to the late 1800s, for instance. Where would you fill up with gasoline? A small number of people might have had electricity at home but where were the gas stations?
According to Brave Search, the first gas station was in St. Louis, Missouri, in 1905. That is a long way to travel for most people just to fill up your car - even if you could wait for 25 years!
The first engines ran on steam, coal gas, liquefied petroleum, and diesel. Thomas Mead and Robert Street each patented their own versions of internal combustion gas engines in 1794. Rudolf Diesel patented the Diesel engine in 1892 and originally experimented with running it on coal dust and vegetable oil.
Although the prevalence of gas stations was rare, most people with cars had access to the various fuels of the day, and cars were owned by wealthy and forward-thinking people.
But cars didn’t really become commonplace until mass production brought the cost down enough to make them accessible to more people. 1901 to 1929 saw rapid development and adoption of cars for transportation by the American public.
The Amish have engineered vehicles that run on grass and also produce fertilizer.
Kek. You made me think there.
They definitely does go back to the 1800s...as does a lot of technology it took them years to figure out how to put a meter on...or obscure/shelve/suppress.
We're still living in the stone age as far as tech goes...
I was checking into these crazy worlds fairs they used to have in the 1800’s. So mysterious. And then a lot of the technology we have today was “introduced” at these fairs.
There is a lot of hidden information and history I think. The mud floods and Tartaria are also such mysteries
I’m really looking forward to finding out what the truth is. It’s hard to believe this life is real given it seems those answers are coming to me
Yep ... even if the architecture doesn't check out, what about star forts?
Except for surveillance tech. Since the advent of cell phones in the 1980s, surveillance tech has seen an ever increasing upward curve.
There were a handful of electric car manufacturers at the turn of the last century but battery technology prevented them from being more practical than a gasoline powered car.
Detroit Electric was one of the larger manufacturers.
There were also a few hybrid cars that had a gas engine that generated electricity to drive an electric motor.
Owen Magnetic was one such vehicle. It is pretty fascinating to see how they accomplished this with teens and twenties technology.
Very early on, gasoline was sold at pharmacies and general stores before gas stations took hold.
Early batteries in glass cases could be rebuilt but they had very limited capacity compared to modern batteries or even batteries from the 80's.
Not gonna lie, Tesla vehicles are pretty cool with all the technology.
Just need something better than batteries. Maybe some Nikola Tesla wireless energy :)
EVs are nothing but (another) Globalist rigging ---- to sell lithium from another country ------ to eliminate local competition.
Here's the rig ------> new cars must use lithium ---- you will need a Globalist to get this lithium from China. Globalists profit.
Lithium is old technology... silver batteries is where it's going to be.
Look at the battery section way down on silverwars.org and Samsung's recent breakthrough announcement about it ...

The workers know the people don’t want EVs, the government and corporations want to force the market regardless.
Not for long though. Because in the end it’s the people who decide 🔥
Sticky: this seems really important, like it means something
I'm so happy the Germans are starting to push back. They still have time to save their country.
Exactly!!!
Did yow know, there are actually "two gerMANYs":
Eastern Germany: was under communist control, people still have a SOUL, able to "critical thinking", know what is best for their children AND are doing everything possible to achieve it! AfD started there!
Western gerMANY: under "operation mockingbird" indoctrination since 3..4 generations! People are "empty soulless marionettes (puppets)", simple "yes say'ers" and always questioning "how do you know that this (patriotic idea) is better than what 'pig führer' is telling us??? Fully infiltrated, I wonder, where did the Bavarian Illuminati start? In Atena?
BUT people are waking up, everywhere, day by day, psyop after psyop, an unstoppable phenomenon!!!
There is hope for mankind!
As Q team says: "Have faith in Humanity!"
Gott sei dank!
Naw, they are BEYOND cucked...
They are still pro-"migrant" even though their daughters are being raped on the regular, that migrants don't have to work while Germans do, etc.
They are the last group to ever fight against what the government tells them, they lost their balls because they lost a war last century.
Did they loose the war?
The EU FAFO dance
😸
I'm sorry; I've read & re-read this & can't decipher it. "Workers Downed Tools at VW Factories Today"
WTF?
They sabotaged a VW factory? Or they "downed" as in ate / drank the tools? Nah, that can't be right.
Did I have too much soda at lunch?
What does this mean? " 70,000 workers downed tools at VW factories today, as the EV crisis spreads."
🤔🤔🧐🧐
About the only thing that makes sense to me is: they put down tools or basically stopped working. But what do I know. I'm not a translator.
I’m not sure the phrase is used much anymore these days. It does sound odd, but it’s something most Union workers are (or were) familiar with.
From Google —
“Down tools" is an idiom that means to suddenly stop working, usually in protest or to strike. For example, "The printers are threatening to down tools if the pay offer is not increased to eight percent".
Well, I'm a 61 year old child of 2 UAW members and while I remember hearing talk of strikes and actual strikes, that phrase is not one I can recall hearing. But, again, I'm 61...
The idiom "downed tools" is certainly common in the UK and it means "stopped work and walked out".
I'm guessing downed as in they put down the tools. Stupid tools, you'll never amount to anything other than some tool, nobody'll ever want you!
BLUF: DO NOT FORCE WHAT PEOPLE WANT!!
IF person wants an EV, fine they can buy one. IF not, they can buy a fossil fuel powered, or even a hybrid. BUT NEVER tell me what I want!!! Go woke. Go broke.
Abiotic oil. Check it out. "Fossil" fuels is a psyop.
True dat! I didnt know about "abiotic" at time of writing, so i opted for fossil to make my point. Did some digging and Just learned something new. Thanks!
Let the people have them if they want. Just don't mandate it for everyone. And don't resort to lies and deceit about it, either.
They don't work without massive incentives and mandates. The entire EV production chain, especially if it's produced here, is heavily subsidized and then most of the them are getting a direct to customer tax benefit. Without these subsidies, hardly anyone would buy EVs, probably just Tesla and maybe a few other odds and ends.
The bottom line is that BEV's are regressive, they were popular in the late 1800s to early 1900s until they got their asses kicked by gas and diesel. The best part, the reasons that BEV died out back then are THE SAME reasons they're going to die out now. Cost, range anxiety, lack of charging stations, and serviceability.
I'm not against alternative fuel vehicles, but if they can't stand on their own without massive subsidies, they need to go away.

Ooooo! How socialist and thoughtful of you...

This all stems from car manufacturers being mandated (EU mandate I believe) that a certain % of vehicles they produce have to be EVs. If I remember correctly it's like 25% and increases each year. So in order to sell ICE vehicles, they have to build EVs that they can't sell.
When the range of EV's improves to 600+ miles per charge and the cost to charge is a fraction of the price of gas. When the car is full self driving and 1000% safer than a human drivers and the cost of insurance is a fraction of what it is today. Maintenance is also a fraction of the cost of gas cars since there are so few moving parks to wear out. When the onboard computer can be used to mine crypto while the owner sleeps or can be part of a network of robo-taxies when the user doesn't need it, the car will make the owner money instead of costing them anything. Think that's far-fetched? In about 6 months it will be a reality with Tesla.
It might take awhile to get used to but as we get older these self driving cars will be a godsend to seniors. It will give them freedom that many lose when they can no longer drive. Those factory workers in Germany are afraid of losing their jobs. Understandable but protesting is not going to stop tomorrow from happening. Delay it a bit but not stop it.
Man this is the stuff that pisses me off! It just sucks these F-ing Liberals hurt honest people just trying to work and pay bills! Each politician needs a last GITMO stop and quick drop. 😵
Germany is being led by mentally deficient leadership. These are the Super Genius's that shut down, and destroyed Coal Fired Electrical generation plants - without a backup available.
The only cure for stupidity on this level, is rope and a tree.
