    It’s both about the shittiness of Tesla, and the eventually doom of all BEVs. If you think companies like Ford or VW won’t be building shit BEVs too, then I have a bridge to sell to you.

    EDIT: Again, no amount of lying to yourself or others will save the BEV. It is doomed and always will be. If anything, you are just delaying real solutions to climate change.

        Joe Biden just announced a huge pro-hydrogen program? Is he paid off or insane?

        It’s time to ask yourself honestly: Why do you oppose green technology that happens to not be your favored technology? Perhaps you can reach a realization here.

            Basically every left-leaning politician on Earth would have be too, in your mind.

              No, because not every left leaning politician is dumb enough to think hydrogen is a viable option.

                There’s nearly nobody left on the political left that still oppose hydrogen. Maybe you’ll find an occasional weirdo, but that’s about it. You’re just out of touch here.

          Because hydrogen isn’t as green as you might think.

          Most ways of creating hydrogen involve toxic chemicals that pollute almost as much as ICE cars.

          And the green ways of creating it lose about 30% of the energy put into it. Energy that could have been used to … charge a battery directly.

            And there’s one way to get to zero emissions. Just like a BEV. The criticism is just a lot of BS from BEV companies.

            Neither wind nor solar is all that efficient. Why hasn’t anyone on the left come out and vigorous oppose them?

            Because that’s stupid, and frankly it is just climate change denial at this point. Something you are doing now.
