Comment on Car dealers say they can’t sell EVs, tell Biden to slow their rollout
NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 7 months agoYou’re right, so we might as well exploit those less fortunate than us because they were unlucky enough to be born where they were born.

I’m not exploiting them. I’m buying stuff about 6 steps down the line from their initial labor. If you let yourself be enslaved by feelings of oppression by existing in a global economy, you’ll perpetually live in the stone age.
If you want to do something about it, you’ll have to go fight a warlord or slavers or something because refusing to buy anything with a battery I just not living in the real world.

Okay, cool. I wasn’t saying you shouldn’t ever buy any batteries. I have an electric car in my driveway right now.
The whole point of what I initially said was to recognize there although one is definitely worse than the other, there are environmental costs to both ICE vehicles and EV vehicles and to reduce our carbon emissions we should focus more on being less car dependent in general.
You’ve gone off about how you don’t care about other people or your downstream effects on others and I don’t really know why I’ve engaged with this pointless conversation.

Because you wanted to. You intentionally misconstrued comments to talk shit online, so I trolled you further to make you do It more. You can dish out exaggerated responses but couldn’t just drop it when I made it clear I wouldn’t be shamed by your crusade.
Next time, don’t bother with the virtue signaling, just tell your truth and refrain from trying to tell people they support slavery or some ignorant shit you obviously know isn’t true.
