Soon after a World Economic Forum partner was caught calling for an “end” to private car ownership, a climate expert is warning that the push to cancel gas-powered cars is just a ploy to end private transport. The climate crisis is a hoax, but it’s such a darn useful hoax for authoritarian globalists.
Climate Depot’s Marc Morano went on Fox Business Thursday and discussed how the Democrat and globalist push to replace gas cars with electric vehicles (EVs) isn’t about helping the environment but restricting Americans’ freedom of movement. “This really isn’t about them driving an electric car,” Morano said, highlighting how this is a top-down decision not based on popular demand. “This literally is — the banning of gas-powered cars — is being done just like a COVID lockdown without a vote,” he added. From California to the Biden Environmental Protection Agency to Australia, leftists are trying to force ordinary citizens into a corner with their gas car restrictions.
Indeed, Pew Research Center published the results of its new survey on June 28, which found that “Less than half of the [U.S.] public (40%) favors phasing out the production of gas-powered cars and trucks.” It’s also significant that EV batteries actually generate lots of toxic waste, so they’re not better for the environment.
“The intent is not to necessarily force people into an electric vehicle,” Morano went on. “The intent is to collapse our plentiful freedom of movement and force us to use mass transit. They want us on the subway.” It’s a global collusion. “They want us on buses. That is what this is about,” Morano insisted.

Simply renting cars or sharing them may become more productive in the future than ownership, but that shouldn’t be forced by slimy globalists who simply want us on some giant ant farm, but as a result of market forces — driving keeps becoming more expensive, for example.
The have known for years electric vehicles cannot work at large scale. They want us out of our gasoline-powered vehicles and then they will announce electric is unworkable. Then, we have lost our freedom to travel.
Most people will not buy electric cars ever, because of their cost and because they’re not feasible in many regions and applications.
So we’re going to play a game of chicken. Either the larger public will submit to the blunt force of the collectivists, or the collectivists will blink and admit that electric cars are as dumb as Khrushchev’s corn experiment and Mao’s Great Leap Forward.
Keep in mind the collectivists don’t care how many people die.
Those who buy Evs are only encouraging the demise of their own freedom.
Not a big deal.40% of the country is on welfare and no need to go to work. (Those are the same ones that give Biden his 40% approval rating.) Another 25% telecommute. The remaining 35% commute.
You mean aside from the fact that there aren’t enough rare earth minerals on the planet to replace the ICE cars just in the West?
That’s why it’s meant to eliminate private transport for almost everyone. Only elites will have private transport.
No one pushing this mandated EV transition is also pushing for a crash program to build power plants and update the electrical transmission and distribution grid. Do you really think they can power this stuff on wind, solar, and unicorn farts?
That you don’t see the Soviet-style central planning aspects of this, and that this will necessarily be a disaster as central planning inevitably is, reflects poorly on you as FReepers. Wake up!
Always was, the fisrt Tesla “ownership” documents had stipulations for use by others… it’s been years and I don’t recall the details, buyer beware.
I don’t think “they” want us on buses and subways, they want us dead. They will settle for a situation where the currently old die off anyway, the current middle-aged die of a blend of designer diseases, suicide and starvation, and the young are left without parents to be exploited as wage slaves and in some cases sex slaves.
Now when I say “they” want this, I am talking about a hidden elite leadership group. The larger leftist progressive political bloc supporting them have been duped into thinking that a revolutionary shift to electric vehicles and mass transportation will “save” the earth. They by and large do believe the hype, I don’t think their masters do.
The co-enablers will support them with votes and if there aren’t enough votes, elections will be hijacked and rigged. But those co-enablers will probably die in their millions along with many neutrals. I think most opponents of the green agenda, if they are not aging out of the battle, know what’s up and will make every effort to survive. There may be a direct political solution. A Republican Party that took a clear and unambiguous stand against the green agenda, and who won three or four consecutive national elections at various levels, could push this plan back into the shadows.
Is there much chance of that happening? I am pessimistic. After Trump, who? And how strong will their opposition to the green agenda prove to be? Even if Trump can push back from 2025 to 2028, it will require a fully allied majority in Congress to assist him.
In other countries political options look weaker and less likely to succeed.
I do not believe that China is behind the globalist agenda but it serves their long-term goals and if the globalists think they will get to run the newly decimated countries of 2035, China may have other ideas and may be planning how to push in and depose the Gates-Soros-Obama crowd who could by then be running a virtual one-party state, and take over the country by force. Their views on racial equality are a lot different, basically, every non-Chinese racial group is equally deserving of subjugation and if they resist, extinction.
People may think I’m kidding or exaggerating. I would just say this: I may be gone by 2035 or 2040 (current age 74) but if I’m still here, tell me then if you still don’t believe any of this. Maybe we will be in the same gulag so you can just write a note and leave it at my work bench.
You just don’t get it. It’s not about how much sense it makes to own one. It’s that many Americans can’t afford them in the first place. Or don’t the “little ppl” matter?
Look at prices for them already.
There is one already being sold in China under $5,000. They are importing the production into Vietnam, where it will also be sold under $5,000.
And they are just the first.
Now granted it is small, only carries the driver and two passengers, but that is starting to get pretty cheap.
Just want to get that out there.
uh........ duh! climate change is the scam all this goes under. Like the joe jackson song “everything gives you cancer” everything today is either labeled racist of due to climate change
>> Now granted it is small, only carries the driver and two passengers, but that is starting to get pretty cheap. <<
Sneaking in a one-child policy. Raising a second child will cost tens of thousands more just for the car.
Very easy to believe. But we can be damn sure that the elite will always have cars,A/C,gas stoves,private jets,meat and everything else.
They want us pinned to our homes, exhaustively monitored and defenseless.
I’m not saying it is large, it is really tiny.
Very. 12” wheels. Only one seat in the front.
Almost no real seats in the back.
(almost)
But it is a real car, for $5,000. I am thinking about one, provided they have a/c (I know a/c will badly impact range, but it is needed here) and (maybe) cruise control.
Those are really the only options I need.
Not even a radio. Want to always hear.
😎
Can’t have the livestock wandering around. Wouldn’t be prudent.
I've pulled a lot less power from the grid in the year I've owned an EV, than I did before getting the EV. The reason why is because of decentralized solar. The main reason I got an EV is because I can't drill and refine my own oil, but I can make my own power. Solar provides 80% of the power we need in our now all-electric home, including charging the EV (about 23K miles charged at home and about 3K miles charged away from home).
I'm 100% in agreement with you on hating making the grid dependent on solar (centralized solar). I also hate the government pushing people to EV's. However, from a free market perspective, to those of us who live in a good area for solar, which is almost always a good area for one of your cars being an EV, then an EV can be part of the overall plan for protection against the Dims' stupid war on energy.
Yes, the car is great for certain purposes. I always wince when I see those baby cars (Smart Cars?) On the highway... surrounded by tractor-trailers...
