Only the biggest of idiots doesn’t realize batteries are worse for the environment than co2.

Oh yeah. They’re fricking holier than thou douche bags with no clue where their EV actually comes from nor the power to supply it.

I know a woman that is on her third Prius. She trades them in so she doesn't have to pay for the battery replacement. She has the I'm a veggie and Vote Edwards sticker and all.

no. they think "I have to get an electric vehicle so I can take off real fast, never have to go to baton rouge gas stations, or have to change the oil again."

Really stupid people do. Same kinds depicted in the Prius episode of South Park.

Why are you so worried about their motives. I can tell you that I am a skeptic on catastrophic global warming, but I intend to get an EV soon. The reason is that it is far superior to any ICE vehicle in every way except endurance and fuel availability. And these two things are completely unimportant for my driving missions.
I’m not sure if this information will calm you or make you more anxious, but there it is.

This is probably true.

It’s about as irrational as getting mad at other people for still wearing masks.

Just as bad as some ol’ baw saying, “I’ve got to get an F250 so I can commute 80 miles to the plant and set my family back a fortune in fuel costs.”

I don’t really give a frick about the world. Hell, I’d launch a thousand nukes with my last breath.

I think there are more electric vehicle owners now that think that way than before.
I have had 3 electric vehicles and when I got my first - every random EV douche would say “thanks for helping out Earth” and crap like that.
Now it seems that no one cares. And they should not.
It’s just a vehicle choice.
No different than a tool in my tool box. When I need a hammer, I get a hammer. When I need a torx screwdriver, I get that.
No one is doing anything good for anyone but themselves in their vehicle choices.

I miss the days of non-EV commercials. I’m beyond annoyed with the EV trend, and the commercial content has gotten worse.

I know a guy that bought the smaller Tesla car. He got it at 3 years old and is quite proud that he drives it to work, gets a parking place in front, and charges it for free.
He occasionally FAFO and has to scramble to find a charging station to spend 40 minutes at.
He doesn't save a penny for the future, (Early 40's) and that battery replacement thing is going to be unmanageable.
