Cute. But fuck Tesla.

Better yet, Unionize Tesla.

Reactionary Car Guys: look at the performance numbers on this ICE car! Fast! Acceleration! Wow!
EV proceeds to beat all those metrics
Reactionary Car Guys: Performance doesn’t matter!
-
I don't know if car guys means hobbyist and tinkerers, but for those performance isn't the most important metric to begin with. Feel and being able to repair and tinker are big ones.
-
As an EV zealot I 100% support tinkerers, racers, and people who simply love the spirit of an ICE. But not in commuting/traffic, where nobody is enjoying anything anyway.

It's illegal to get a tesla and not get a vanity tag with a EV joke on it
-
While this was the case at one point, with the rise in EV ownership the pool of good EV joke plates became fewer and fewer. Many state have passed legislation allowing new EV owners to petition for non-EV joke plates where the state has reached full saturation. /s
edit: Why is @neptune@dmv.social being downvoted? They posted a joke. This isn't a high art forum. Its in a shitpost community.

How about just no cars
-
It'd be nice if I had an alternative first.
-
I agree, I'm just sick of cars and I drive one a lot for work
I don't have solutions, I'm just complaining catharticly

Reactionary car guys are the people "ice"-ing charging stations and talking about how they're just going to consume more oil in response.
-
I too enjoy foil
-
And the truth is somewhere in the middle
-
You mean the top one?
-
Both platforms have problems, thinking anything else is being a part of the problem.

Kinda... It's just that all modern cars are pieces of surveillance tech with a side gig of transporting meatbags. Kinda worse with EVs, tho, AFAIK

Find me EV with soul and I buy

Bicycle guys: "A car with an electric motor is still a car"
I'm don't do very much bicycling, but I much prefer breathing next to EVs than ICE vehicles. Being forced to breath someone's stinky exhaust when you're breathing heavy from physical exertion sucks.
Yeah I’d rather be a cyclist next to EVs, but I’d much rather not have to share the road with cars. Those things are dangerous.
Breathing in Micro-rubber/micro-plastics from disintegrating car tires isn’t fixed at all by electrification.
I can also hear ICE cars approach from behind when I’m cycling, but that isn’t the case with electric vehicles (which might be using “autopilot” and can’t see me on the road). I’m not sure if that whirring sound is present outside of low speeds, but I certainly can’t hear it with wind crossing my ears. Sometimes tire noise is audible, but not always.
On the other hand, ICE drivers are more likely to intentionally try to hit me soooo
But I'm sure a bicycle guy still understands the benefit of electric cars over regular cars
Literally true; but also yes. A car that doesn't look before turning is the same whether it's ICE or EV. I'm a bus-and-walking guy, not a bike guy, but any car is a danger to me when I'm crossing the street. It's not a problem we're going to solve with batteries. Mass transit, raised crosswalks, narrowing roads, physical speed controls, and densified cities (to name a few) are all things we desperately need.
