Well, nothing quite like electric vehicle fires. Explain to me the benefit 0f these polluting fire hazards again :) more useless greenies visions collapsing, whatever these fools think they should do they should do the exact opposite and things will work out well. Ya know, they ought to pull a 1984 Orwell on their own polluted minds…
