Electric car fanatics......jeesus.
'They are affordable for everyone know' sure....everyone can afford a 30k brandnew car only to end up in a tiny plastic soupcan.
'You can go anywhere in them'......sure, as long as you never stray to far from your village, like a good little square.....South of France or the Highlands in one charge? Forget about it.
'Electricity is cheap' , no it just fucking is not, studies show that in this country with it's terrible power management, driving electric is the most expensive way to go currently, this is calculated on home charging only, forget about the fees on public charging post.
'You can charge anywhere' How many public charging point are there in this town? Answer: it's none.
What they really get annoyed about is when you mention that the whole electric car lark is a huge step backwards and that governements are using it to low-key restrict our freedom......conspiracy theorist! Tin hat! Fool!
Sure buddy, stay nice and complayant, nice and quiet, a good little citisen, never causing a fuss, be sure you pay your taxes on time now you hear! So they can spend it on people here to replace you.
Uhm... an EV is a choice. It works well for some, alright for many and not at all for some others. What it certainly is not is a government plot to limit your freedom to move around.
