Electric cars have existed for decades. The only difference is back then the g-men didn't have the tech they needed for full tracking, data collection, etc. Most cars have some of this "smart" bullshit integrated but on electrics it's all but mandatory. So the kikes and globalists created the Ukraine "war" as an opportunity to raise gas prices, blame it on Russia, then say we need to move away from dependence on oil. It's so fucking obvious but all the retards care about is "muh $5/gallon". Don't get me wrong, the higher gas prices suck along with everything else in the jewflation, but let's say you drive 10K miles per year and get an average of 25 mpg. That's 400 gallons of gas per year. An extra $2 or $3 per gallon is a pain in the ass and even a huge struggle for many, but again compared to the bigger picture of how badly these assholes are fucking up the economy it's a drop in the bucket. I'm the kind of guy who says, "If they want more for gas then I'm going to limit my driving." "If eggs are $3/dozen then fuck you, I'm not eating eggs." Nevermind the greater upfront cost of EVs, and the fact that most people won't be able to repair them without getting fucked up the ass by stealerships and crooked shops who will have proprietary access to software patches and whatnot. EVs can be a nice option for short range commuters but doubtful they'll compete with IC as primary vehicles for most Americans. Ford and Rivian might brag about an estimated 280 mile range with their electric trucks, but they don't talk about how much that range will drop when you have a 2,000 pound payload. Can a contractor afford to stop for 2 hours and charge his vehicle when he has to drive 100 miles to the job? Electric vehicles are heavier, too. The tires need to be thicker and stronger on those vehicles, and the weight will cause the particulates on those tires to wear off at a greater rate which is arguably worse for pollution than exhaust on IC engine cars. How are they going to recycle all those big, heavy batteries when they inevitably don't last as long as their warranties because the automakers cheapened out as usual? It's such a retarded pipedream. Hybrids are fine but overnight suddenly (((they))) want people to think electric vehicles are viable as primary modes of transportation. Little do the goyim know it's just part of their endless plan to subvert and control people. "Hurr durr muh gas prices, I'll go pay $65K to reserve an EV I might get three years from now." Behold the future: "Honey, did you change the password for the car app?" "No, what's wrong. Car won't start?" "Nope. It's saying I'm locked out." "Did you call someone a niggerfaggot online again?" "... Yes." "See, the email says your comment got us banned from driving for two weeks for violating hate speech laws." "Fucking niggerfaggots..."
