I don't hate electric cars.
I just dislike the false narratives around them.

I used to race electric RC in an open gas/electric monster truck class.

As for the "what the horse and buggy folk said" argument, well, I'm not sure there were calls to ban horses in just a few years despite not having infrastructure to supply cars.

And a second point on that, is that eletric cars used to outnumber gasoline cars by a significant margin.
Probably a forgotten history, oh well.
Then along came a few inventions that popped gasoline into the lead.

What I object to is the forcing.
People do want better and if you force suboptimal it has long term costs.
The best scenario is to let electric cars develop as a luxury item for those with the passion.
They have the resources, and will make it happen.
