I hate Elon musk but Tesla is the best thing that happened to this planet because no other car manufacturer was bothered to do the groundwork required to get electric cars going. They lie and spread corruption before Elon came along.

Electric cars will do more harm than good; we need to give up the idea of atomized, individual transportation in its current state altogether. Electric cars are a heroin addict saying “well, I’m only snorting it now”. Yes, it’s harm reduction, but we need to stop it now, not some bullshit taper.

Cars are not the future even if they were perfectly safe with an infinite energy source.

We are not to the point of climate change where we can expect rapid, radical changes to the way the majority of Americans live. And when we hit that point, it won’t be made by complaining to the people driving cars, it will be made by politicians abolishing zoning laws, setting stronger restrictions on rent within cities, and heavy investment into public transportation.

Blaming the huge number of people who can’t afford to live in a city and must drive an hour each way for work just makes you an asshole.

Where did I blame anyone? I’m simply stating cars aren’t the future. The faster we figure out how to do that successfully, the better. Please don’t put words in my mouth.
