going off of your point on the MINING aspect alone. much of it is performed in countries with substandard safety and worker rights and also child labor is used. the runoff from much of the mining pollutes surrounding wildlife areas, watersheds, streams, rivers, oceans, etc.. side note, I live in coal region and many of our streams are still orange from all the sulfur. all of these being things lefties retards love to pretend don't exist. we didn't even get into the limited available quantities of many rare earth materials that probably couldn't support all the expected growth of EV anyway, which is reason enough at face value not to pursue this route. the disposale of the batteries is another environmental nightmare Green fags pretend doesn't exist. the ICE cars are more recyclable than EVs overall. then the power generation. i know lefty fag retards think electricity comes out of the wall, but you'd just be substituting the fossil fuels burned in your ICE for more fossil fuels burnt as power generation stations. right there the entire concept of "being green" is a fucking moronic, zero awareness farce so it's a perfect match for a no critical thinking skills, emotionally driven pussy leftist shithead. again, a foreign concept to any shit-for-brains liberal moron who's too busy filming his wife getting fucked by their boyfriend to stop and think about how fucking dumb the idea is. but like we're saying, it's not "just a dumb idea" it's a big stepping stone to forever loss of freedom which is the bigger overall move being made here.
