    Somehow both anti-fascist left wing activists (paint, scratch, protest) and anti-ev right wing reactionists/“car enthusiasts” (scratch, cord cutting, gas pump-sucking circle jerking). Yet, Teslas keep selling and people keep buying, despite getting attacked from “both sides”. I think it’s a great example showing the general population does not give a fuck. The apathetic population outnumbers the voting population. The nearsighted self-interested demographic (tax, rebate, and fuel incentives) prevails over the shouty demographic.

    It’s vocal minorities all around.

    I’m a pro-ev general vehicle enthusiast. I’m surrounded by Teslas. I can’t knock Tesla for putting evs on the road. I’m still waiting for the real manufacturers to get up to speed. At least we had some good PHEV options?
