I support electric vehicles. train-chad tricked-out-ride

But electric cars are not a realistic solution. Cars have a use case, but bikes and public transit can cover the VAST majority of people's real transportation needs if you designed the system properly. Transportation needs to become more rationalized and efficient which means it needs to be done at scale and with an eye to moving the public, not carrying bourgeois suits around on their whims. Electric cars give people the illusion that we can solve the problem of how much waste is built into our system of transit without needing any political will or reorganization.
