Yes, but you didn’t consider how much it costs society when you drive an EV which causes some oil exec’s blood pressure to spike!

In many cases they’re using the same think tanks and PR firms so it’s really no surprise.

But it is interesting how many dummies fall for it. The typical people that you’d expect. The ones that fall for everything and don’t understand there’s a difference between NBC Nightly News and some guy on a YouTube video saying dumb shit.

People don’t just fall for it, they teach others. My daughter came home from school and told me about her classmate who started in on her when that classmate found out we have an entirely EV household. All the usual myths plus some brand new stuff only kids (or Alex Jones) could make up. I took it as a learning opportunity to do some critical thinking with her… But her classmate didn’t invent that on the spot; other parents are absorbing the disinformation and teaching it to their kids uncritically as a fact

I’d say it’s depressing but I’ve resigned myself to it just being human nature at this point.
