      You know the solution to the other problems, such as massively investing in public transit, also significantly help reducing emissions, right?

          Or you can Google the artist and see that he is an activist that actively supports policies for expanding bicycle infrastructure. As well as making other comics criticizing the defunding of public transit.

          Like, I don’t know, to me this is an obvious reading of the comic.

                  Bruh, let me repeat your original bloody comment

                  Oh, I must have missed the part in this anti electric vehicle comic that argues for significant increase in public infrastructure? Or is the author going to release another comic about how trains have brakes and hit animals/people too?

                  It’s almost as if this comic is intentionally vague so that whoever the reader is can use it to confirm their bias.

                  You literally talked about the author here. And you said that the comic was intentionally vague.

                  Well, I’m saying it wasn’t, and it is you that are forcing in your own, wrong, interpretation into it.

      Yeah, it’s framed horribly. But if the comic specified that it was something like a hummer (the EV form weighing x1.9 what a gas hummer does… it’s 9063lbs without any cargo) it would make more sense. All the issues scale with size and weight, and there is also personal cost.

      If electric Kei cars were normal it would be a much better situation, though people are going to rightfully feel less safe with the idea of being in a small vehicle while on the same road with the increasing popularity of large trucks/SUVs (that is if Kei-class vehicles aren’t banned/restricted for that very reason).
