  Tilting at windmills is an English idiom which means "attacking imaginary enemies", originating from Miguel de Cervantes' novel Don Quixote.
such a weird article. i didn't know we were being propagandized to death with anti-EV articles. i thought it was just the opposite.

the headline of the NYT article he cites seems insightful and correct, and does not support his assertion of anti-EV bias or "lies".

that said, i do believe enough that, due to Jevons Paradox, we're all doomed -- with or without EVs -- as long as we allow the existing oil to come out of the ground.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯




I have a lot of family and friends that, between them, have told me every single one of the things in the article. I've also heard about more outlandish things about EVs. People believe memes.


Perhaps your bubble isn't being "propagandized to death with anti-EV articles", but others are?
