I wondered why Princess Mononoke was standing with a box of her things, waiting for a cab outside Howl’s Moving Castle.

I truly lament this, but at the same time, there’s nothing I would ever give up manuals for except, oh you know, saving the planet! It’s a necessary change and with so many people hooting and hollering about much less, I’m not going to make this my last stand for anything.

But I hope to grab a used manual…

What if your grandma’s dying wish is to ride a horse that happens to be on the other side of the country, and you have just 36 hours to get it there? THEN WHAT!? Checkmate, EVs!

I just took my EV on a 1700 mile trip between Texas and Colorado and the **entire** trip cost me $100 in electricity.

Pairs well with the hysteria that we might have to put up millions, MILLIONS, of acres in solar panels to run Murka entirely on the sun.

50mph!?! That’s for children. I forgot to mention I’ve drive through hurricanes, of course, with the bricks you mention.

I have my PHEV, but that hasn’t been enough to educate them. They get a lot of disinformation and I don’t see them very often.

“You may have seen a meme going around the internet this week, talking about how much it costs to charge an electric vehicle at a charging station”

Do you also encounter a 50mph headwind each way? You also forgot to include the one ton of bricks you are required to have in your vehicle at all times.

Some EV critic once commented that he’d “never seen” EV chargers on his roadtrips.

This boomer meme also ignores the fact that most EV owners charge at home 90% of the time. Home charging is a good amount cheaper than electrify America.

The total bullshit smack talk the MAGAts spout about the batteries drives me right round the bend.

As someone who drives 700 miles each way every day, up a mountain in both directions, in the snow while also simultaneously towing, this really resonates with me. EVs will never work for anyone.

Boomers are definitely the demographic I see spreading this kind of misinformation and fighting against things like electric vehicles. And they still hold a disproportionate percentage of the wealth and political power in this country.

i am no EV “Stan” as the kids say (i think), but the point that EVERYONE keeps missing EVERY TIME this comes up is that EV charging is in it’s goddam infancy. you have to move through the inefficient infancy to get to a better place. 10 or 15 years from now it’ll be incredibly better, in ways we can’t imagine, and the…

you mean like all the trumptards who love cops until they’re up against them?

That is the hard part about confirmation bias, and why it is important for people to recognize it. We all do it to some extent, and the more you can recognize it and question what you hear/say/take in the better. To some degree many commenting on this article probably have their own bias Tham memes as BS, and when we…

It takes a lot of work and effort to be ignorant

The sad part is that plenty of right wing turd burglars are going to fall for this hook line and stinker.

Each time change is around the corner, some idiots have to find a way to spread misinformation, EV, Climate Change, Vaccine ....etc And you will be surprise how many people eat this type of info without even questioning it. Unbelievable.
