    So it begins. UK to ban sales of gasoline and diesel cars.

    https://www.cnbc.com/2020/11/18/the-...from-2030.html


    The disease of liberalism and quest for control over peoples lives renews internationally.

    How long till this is proposed in USA? Or is it- the green new deal?

    🤣 California Been trying to flex on taking away gas/diesel for years...
    We don’t have the power to go thru a summer with them crying for everyone to minimize the use of A/C units and such. There’s non stop rolling blackouts and all the sudden everything’s going to be electric...

    It's a pretty smart move by the Brits actually. After Brexit, Brits are not going to be able to afford cars so they will not know the difference because they can't own one.

    I test drove a Tesla. It felt like a golf cart on steroids. Suffice to say, I'm not a fan.

    If I'm gonna spend all that money, I need my car to sound like it's having a convulsion.

    Switch to 100% ethanol. Brazil been on it since the mid fifties. Emits oxygen. Better mileage and cheaper than oil. This is a slam dunk for the Green New Dealers.

    Meanwhile China probably pollutes more in a day than all of W Europe does in a month.

    48% of UK electricity comes from FOSSIL fuels. So their stupid fukking electric cars are half running off that. It's all about them feeling good as they drive down the street not emitting any LOCAL pollution.

    100% of liberal policies these days are about one upping each other on VIRTUE SIGNALING: masks, environment, diversity/race shit.

    Is there any good country left to flee to? Bahamas like SEAN CONNERY?

    If they replace the gas stations with charging stations you won't notice a difference. In the old times before cars they have saloons where you can park your horses to rest and eat before the next trip. It's called evolution.

    My concern is that you will no longer be able to drive without requiring electronic assistance/ energy, which means end of privacy.

    At the gas station, you can pay w cash, put untraceable liquid in your car and not be subject to intrusion or scrutiny.

    The government knows where you are at any time. Cell phones, when you google something they know your location. They have cameras on all interstates and downtowns. You can run from Uncle Sam but you can't hide.

    Very disturbed you feel this is ok.

    I can leave the cell at home, hop in the car and disappear right now if I want- as is my right.

    If the government requires electric vehicles, it will have a complete database on everyones life and movement and use this to set such things as life expectancy or medical assistance rates based on lifestyle risk factors, insurance rates, contact tracking, friend harrassment, etc

    As a liberal, it takes more energy to make renewable sources of energy then just using said energy. Even Michael Moore did a Youtube doc on bio diesel and hows it's a waste. Think about how we get ENOUGH electricity to power cars. Wind/solar/Turbine/Dam are not even remotetly enough. Fossil fuels, which turns and goes through all the processes to become the electrictiy.

    The only way to pull this off is to accept that Nuclear energy is INCREDIBLE, incredibly safe, emits condensation into the air and that's it. Obv the rods and nuclear waste at the end are a problem. We can bury it deep in the ocean, siberia, surrounding dead planets. I know it's not perfect.

    Eventually we will run out of dino juice. Those are the only options right now.

    Most of Eastern Europe are excellent options. Poland probably No. 1. Bring your money and job though because you will not find any there.

    What do you know about evolution? Public education system brainwashing kids with liberalism made humans enter the devolution phase long ago.

    And it was all planned this way. Thinking isn't allowed any longer. Perfect example of most of the posters on SBR.

    Plebs are nothing but slaves and the slave masters made the Matrix that way.
