    Same for gas-powered cars compared to horses. What's your point?

    Facts are irrelevant in America.

    One must take his/her side's official position or become an outcast without a faction to call home.

    The consistency is pretty amazing across the forum.

    Even with my disdain for wokeness and relative indifference to gun control, my opinions run pretty consistent with my side.

    The most incoherent people are the independents and centrists.
    They have feelings, not clear opinions, and tend to be afflicted with terminal optimism that falls outside the realm of sanity.
    Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Samuel Johnson, 1775
    Religion....is the opiate of the people. Karl Marx, 1848

    Why Biden? Because Fuck You that's why. Barack Obama has a Grammy, an Emmy, a Nobel Prize, 2 terms as President and a Twitter account.

    Trump is against electric cars so all the Trumpers are against them too. They don't need a logical reason for it.

    charging batteries from the city grid is no savings, in reality. see, reality check.

    I am 100% satisfied.

    The electric grid would have to be more than doubled if everything was electric.

    Power outages would do twice as much damage as well.

    Leftists never think things through to the natural conclusion and just go with what feels good at the moment.

    gas powered vehicles are more amenable to freedom.

    this has been explained to you already. First, your assumption that the future of EV's is based on current tech is moronic. Second, your assumption that future transport will be based on current usage is moronic. I am tired of explaining shit to you multiple times...get back in your mothers basement.
