Bipartisanship with Fascists makes you a Fascist.

"What are we supposed to do the fascists have more votes because they gerrymandered real good". The Overton Window has ratcheted to "oops all fascists". If you decide to vote against impeaching the fascist, you are complicit.

"Impeachment is political" you are the political your job is to do politics and you are sitting here explaining why we cannot do politics at the fascists because we have to do things the right way, while they shit all over the right way and do whatever they want with zero accountability from YOU.

Ah yeah wouldn't wanna Ginsberg anything up.

I mean... It took about 30 seconds to figure out your source was a propaganda engine built by the fossil fuel industry. My source was MIT. The college MIT.... Where most of the shit that America has ever invented came from.

"my name is Pedro please read my article from TrumpFellatioSpecialists Dot Com and trust that I know what I'm talking about because the billionaires can't be wrong can they?". Now I'm being condescending.

If telling you that you are incorrect and why and you quadrupling down on burning entire cities worth of power for your fake stonks is being condescending then I can be condescending all day.

You.... You don't read too good. They are not ending up in landfills, Pedro. They are being used for other applications and are still, for the most part, still IN. USE. BECAUSE THEY ARENT DEAD YEAD AND DONT NEED TO BE RECYCLED YET, PEDRO.

Batteries are not being recycled because we take old EV batteries and use them for grid storage. They are not yet being recycled because they aren't ready to be recycled yet because we're still using all of them. Keep listening to the people who have a vested interest inburning coal and oil, tho.

lmao here's one from MIT and was one of the top 3 not-AI results of my "simple Google search" that "shattered" my dream.

How well can electric vehicle batteries be recycled?
Many battery materials are valuable enough to repay the intensive work of recycling them—although we should still expect lots of demand for newly-mined nickel, cobalt, lithium and copper.

Ah, a single citation from a "nonprofit" fossil fuel that is operated by a libertarian former Enron exec, and is transparently funded by multiple fossil fuel companies.

Jesus Christ riding multiple bicycles.

One of these is still a tangible object with objective benefit to daily life. Digital currency is burns billions in power and computer hardware time to play a digital lottery with zero actual real world benefit. Any intention of it being actual currency was lost with stonk bros like you.

Wow a simple Google search resulted in about 15 different places correlating that Lithium batteries are recycled for 95% of their materials 🤔. They are saying the current manufacturing process does not include a lot of recycled materials yet, as they aren't reaching end of life yet. Cite sources.
June 17, 2025 at 9:42 PM
Lithium batteries are 95% recyclable. You are wrong twice.
June 17, 2025 at 9:30 PM
One of these things provides a tangible object that is useful and usable in the real world in everyday life by means of transporting people and materials more efficiently and reliably than spewing carbon emissions into the air. The other is literally evaporating lakes to create fake stocks.

I also believe wasting billions of dollars in energy and computer resources to create a new flavor of stonks out of thin air was a good call. Real good idea there. I'll file that in the trash can right alongside current implementation of "AI" being something I should "embrace".
