@SeasonedRP my favorite is when I see people using generators to charge EVs.

@Typo-MAGAshiv And help China. China has spent a fortune in the U.S. on the green agenda. Who would think people are so stupid they could be convinced to give up inexpensive energy, but here we are.
@SwarmShawarma if the myrmidons who blindly and faithfully followed all of the "green energy" crap of the last few decades knew just how harmful a lot of it really is, they'd lynch the politicians who put it forth
That is, assuming they actually care about the environment and the entire thing isn't just a cynical ploy to fuck up the free market
Sad to hear that @Vermillion-Rx is leaving TRP-RED but we wish him the best on his new blog (https://trp.red/t/1g7d)
pistachios
Not sure if they are related to the current Dubai Chocolate fad referenced (which has yet to come to my attention in the wild.) But, at the intersection of Pistachio market consolidation, water rights capture, political manipulation and outright purchase, and Mad Money getting sent to Israel, you'll find the rich AF piece of shit Resnick Family. Well known and widely maligned here in California.
Electric cars becoming as disposable as mobile phones.
If there was a doubt how big a crabon footprint there was.
This pricing strategy creates a paradox. While it makes green transportation accessible to a broader segment of the population, it encourages a culture of frequent replacement. In many cases, the cost of upgrading to a newer model with a better battery and updated software is low enough that consumers view it as a reasonable monthly expense rather than a major life purchase
This volatility is likewise reflected in the plummeting resale values of used EVs in China. Because the technology moves so swift, the second-hand market for EVs is struggling. A three-year-old EV may lose a vast majority of its original value because the “tech stack” it carries is no longer competitive. This creates a cycle where owners are encouraged to trade in their vehicles quickly before the value bottoms out, further shortening the average lifespan of the car on the road.
