These electric cars, especially these “luxury” vehicles, are for saving auto corporations and maintaining car dependency, not for saving the planet and maintaining a decent life.

You’re not being realistic if you think cars could go away.

You’re not being realistic if you think we can’t beat car dependency, or we have to completely eliminate cars from society. We need to eliminate the system that ensures that cars are the only option, something everyone is forced to own because they make everything else far less safe and convenient. That is a choice that is repeatedly and consistently made in favor of car dominance over humans, and it shouldn’t be.

So, uh…what’s your solution for removing 95% of the land area of the United States so we can all travel by foot?

You guys know trains and planes exist. And you’re not so daft you fully invented the part where I said tear apart all roads and destroy all cars.
