Y’all are missing the bigger picture here.
The leftists aren’t trying to kill off the fossil-fuel industry because they have some reason for preferring green tech. They’re doing it because they didn’t think green tech would work.
The real issue is that they want to destroy civilization altogether.. or lock people away within public-transit. Now they hate Musk because he made a viable green solution. You’ve seen the EV fires. You wouldn’t want to be within a few miles of them because of all that smoke. But do those fires really look like they’re going to set off cars 50 feet away?
Perhaps, we should ask China which makes EVs, registers and licenses them - then parks them, nose to nose, side by side, in lots of 10,000, leaving them to rot, and thus boosting their ‘production’ numbers.
