From just reading the last page, you look more like the unhinged person.

Can you let me know how that ties into our Tesla discussion, which is the topic of our honest argument?

You called me out for not wanting an honest argument then admit that you're not looking for an honest argument and actually looking to troll.
Bold strategy!!!

Good Lord
Not a good look for you, as I said. You should probably considering taking your L and getting the thread back on track to that honest argument you are "looking for"

Oil guys get touchy whenever new energy technologies come out.
You think lithium batteries are new?
P.S. where does the energy stored in these things come from?

Using lithium batteries to power something is well known. Lithium batteries also power my toothbrush.
Yes, you need energy to power mechanical devices, he just put them together.
The batteries in cars are literally just a huge phone battery, or like when he first started, it was a bunch of computer batteries put together.

New energy tech? What are you talking about? There hasn't been any new energy tech for quite a long time.
Fossil fuels
Renewables
Nuclear
Nothing new from any of the above categories.
Musk might be the guy to find a more effective way to store energy, but he hasn't done that yet. No one has quite done that yet.
Musk just gets far too many headlines for a bunch of nothing these days.
"Musk says we need universal basic income!"
"Elon Musk warns of AI!"
Everything is taken as bonafide fact for many.

The first all electric car using a lithium battery came about 9 years ago. I'd argue that's fairly new in the grand scheme of the history of cars. You'd probably argue that cars and lithium batteries have been around for a loooong time, but that just feels like semantics IMO.
These type of cars being used in mass by the general public are not something that has been around for a long time.
