I’ve been excited for EVs all my life. But there’s a certain level of propaganda that’s come with them.
Explicitly talking about their downsides seems to be taboo. Like you’ll get downvoated or banned on many social media platforms for doing it.
EVs are presented as a panacea, doing everything an ICE can do, only better. It's not true. There are tradeoffs.
You have to consider what the pushers are saying and if there’s sufficient pushback when they’re misaligned.
Currently that doesn’t happen. Currently you face everything up to deplatforming for speaking against the narrative that EVs are the one true solution.
It's a bit ironic you claim "propaganda" and "downvotes".... in the most upvoted, top thread on this post, a thread which is highly skeptical/negative to EV.
These days I find it difficult to find real-world data or anecdotes from EV real owners amongst the tidal wave of gasoline vehicle operators predicting how terrible an EV would be (and justifying their ego/decision to not buy one).
You'll note it's RARE that the article is negative towards EVs, only the comments. Because it's pro-EV, all the time.
