It's not about getting people to drive EVs. It's about stopping people from driving entirely and getting people to live in dense and tightly controlled cities.

Cars are like the internet of the physical world. With a car you can go anywhere you want. They represent and enable freedom of movement.

If they just said one day; "we're baning all cars, you useless eaters have to live in slum prisons now", people would notice that and object (maybe). Instead, the plan was to "phase out" ICE cars with EVs. Then to control the price, authorisation and/or access to charging stations and power to control EV use. You might have an EV, but your allocated charging credits will only allow you to get to work and back. You can't just drive off into the sunset.

I don't think they factored in the possibility of serious flaw in the technology. This is probably mainly because they are power mad psychopaths. Now their little clandestine tethers are backfiring on them, they'll have a choice to either roll it back (and wait for a more opportune time to spring their authoritarian global dictatorship trap) or just move the furniture to the side, take down the scenery and let the people stare at the brick wall at the end of the theatre.

With the way the world is going, I'll go with the latter. The global push for internet censorship is a key part. The internet is like the meddling kids in Scooby Doo, it keeps on uncovering the plans of the bad guys just as they are about to enact them, and it's getting better at it.

Shit is about to get a lot worse.

Well said, I'm going to use your analogy because it describes exactly what's going in a way people can easily understand.

Probably not. These tyrants are only tyrants after all. But they'll concoct other control mechanisms.

Shit is about to get a lot worse.

Yes it is. Dan Bongino keeps saying, "it hasn't gotten bad enough yet." He's correct. I have a low tolerance for tyranny but apparently many people are able to tolerate excruciating tyranny beyond my imagination.

All of them.

I wish you were wrong.

I already read where insurance policies for these death traps are going through the roof. Instead of dumping these abhorrent pieces of shit, people are going to cough up more money to insure them and repair them. Virtue signaling must be a powerful motivator to keep people buying this crap.

Just as the Jew demoralizes us they create the illusion of virtue by building up their puppets and useful idiots. The combination is a really good method to help identify agendas. Who is torn down by who? Who is building up who? And what are the talking points?

I'm not being forced to drive an electric car.no one is. There are many people making (wrong) choices, and learning the hard way.

You obviously are disregarding the signs all around you. There's a huge push to eliminate all vehicles, but for now the attack is on petroleum vehicles.

The wrong choices you talk about are people listening to the propaganda from the ministry of truth about global climate change, C40/15 minute cities and believing cars, gasoline engines, gas stoves, guns and so on are a problem. The real problem is the people thinking they can vote their way out of tyranny.

Once our guns are gone, our vehicles are gone, our stoves are gone, we are trapped, but what do I know, I'm a member of the vast right wing conspiracy.

Not disregarding any signs. I'm not buying into it. As Fall approaches, I see masktards in stores. I know a couple that bought an electric car. They justify their choice, not my problem. I cannot control people that listen to the / beleive the nonsense being spouted. I see what is happening around me, I only act on that which affects me. I can't do anything about city people but shake my head in amazement.

To be fair, I've seen at least a half dozen gasoline vehicles burning on the side of the road in my decades of driving. Diesel is the way to go for less explosive/burnable vehicles, and diesel engines are way more efficient.

The real problem with diesel is it allows too much freedom of movement, you can drive over 400 miles or so on a tank. Authorities can not shut diesel engines down on a whim. You can fill back up in mere minutes and drive further. Think of cars like the internet. The kleptocracy is trying to turn the internet off because people can communicate wrong think. Cars are analogous in that people can flee tyranny. The problem though is the new generation of adults who actually believes people should be restricted because of climate change, which of course is actually caused by the same tyrants.

That's a fair point. I have noticed that all of my various diesel vehicles magically have a tank sized to get 500 miles or less range.
