And here come the personal attacks. I’m out.

Sorry, but that’s forcing them. In most locales, people need personal vehicles. Your suggestion is to force them to buy an EV.

Your solution to get people to do the right thing is to force them to. .

I’d rather just do away with the false idea that ICE cars are superior to EVs. We’ll both get the same result, but my way isn’t authoritarianism.

Sure, but I still want them to buy an EV, don’t you? That’s why the focus needs to be on the *fact* that EVs are better cars.

I disagree.

I can charge my car in 30 minutes and get 350 miles. Maybe you can drive 700 without needing a 30 minute break, but I can’t.

The infrastructure exists but it isn’t quite as convenient as gasoline.

My EV is a better car for a lower price than equivalent ICE cars.

I agree with the article - I bought an EV because it was the best car for the price. I’m glad it helps the environment, but that wasn’t the deciding factor for me

The message should be get a better car *and* help the environment

That matters because of the rhetoric against environmentalism

Sorry; what is a “Fiction Finds Goldbox”? Is there a link to it?

If you’re unfamiliar with his history, start with this article I wrote last year:

Please stop endangering the lives of all of us—and not just Americans, but the world.

RFK Jr. as HHS Secretary will be catastrophic for science & public health.
If this man who has spent forty years eroding trust in science and public health is installed in this role, there may truly be no turning back.

Wow. Until today, heck, until this very moment, I would have never believed this is real. It is real. I signed into X for the first time in many months just to verify it.

This is disgusting.

Video game? If so, B. Great art doesn’t work in a game if you can’t code the game.

What are some examples of the other 99%? I assume you have a day job, but are there other ways a professional writer earns money?
