      It’s toxic to oppose cars in a suicidially car brained and car dependent society. What about this 10yo child and other children? Don’t they deserve EVs?

      You don’t accept any deviation and only accept perfection, and then you post about being downvoted, that gives off the air of being toxic about it.

        If we want to forward our dreams, we have to be assertive. Otherwise dreams will only be imposed upon us from might.

        I dont expect perfection. We live under a machine where we are forced to use cars whether we like it or not. We cant expect the individual to move away from the car because the machine forces it upon us. Its a planned economy ruled in the name of profit, and they construct society to require cars. We should however expect people to dream.

        I can agree that posting about being downvoted gives of negative vibes. But I dont think that is enough to call it toxicity. If I am approaching the conversation in a destructive manner, then I can agree with you.
