So there’s been some media stuff about Tesla chargers going down or getting long lines in this extreme cold we’re having.
The factors there are complicated and mostly this is impacting people without charging at-home. As it happens, I’m now making a daily commute - just started in fact! And I’d like to report that my car is having no issues at all in this weather, and I haven’t even plugged it in to charge in a few days.
@keraba@mastodon.social This is quintessential black-and-white thinking at its very worst.
I need a car and will need one for the foreseeable future. Many people are in the same boat.
Getting mad at folks who advocate for harm reduction given the realities of the day as some sort of purity test is not how you win over folks. You’ll probably make some extremists happy, maybe even radicalize a few folks to your position.
But this sort of purity-testing nonsense never leads to great places.
