I dont understand. What is your point? Is it that having an extra 1.8 million barrels burned is good? Is it that Power Plant + ICE cars is cleaner than Power Plant - ICE cars? Hiw is it that you people keep getting hopping mad every time progress is made? What do you gain? Why do your feefees get hurt? What is the big "gotcha" that you keep trying to make?

Don't bother. Reading, logic and facts are not their strong point.

As you've seen they just lie and say something back which you clearly didn't mean and continue to live in the ignorance bubble they have created for themselves.

It does no good to try to explain anyway. When you explain that mining all the shit that goes into making the batteries for these cars, it completely offsets whatever exaggerated gain they make. Not only that, but the incredible human cost as well. But you just go ahead and feel good about yourself and your shitty "green" cars.

Apparently only materials for electric cars are mined

let's just continue to exploit entire continents of people though right? i mean if it makes YOUR neighborhood "green" it's ok to ignore all that.

Since all you're doing is whining like a little hippie shit and presenting nothing to support your case then no I don't give a fuck about anything you have to say about it. So far all I know is that you're just making this up as you go along. You really are awful at this, and it's no surprise that you don't get any support.

Telling someone to go kill themselves... stay classy Lemmy.

No, telling someone to further indulge in their fossil fuel fetish.
