Indeed. Even after things become crystal clear — «Relapses, relapses are everywhere». Coping mechanisms don’t go away easily merely because “explanations” involved became a step or two more implausible.

I’m kind of viewing the libertards as a pot of boiling something, one of those things where a certain amount of scum floats to the top and you have to skim it off to get to the “meat” of the dish. And “libertard” refers in general to those who lean toward that side of the fence.
My bigger concern is the ecohippies that have overtaken Boris’s government in the UK. Its side effects are truly bad, but it is a false religion, which is what “liberalism” seems to be turning into. Just my view, that’s all.

“Virtue signaling” is behaviour of the lowly livery crowd. Not for The Great And Good. It’s human equivalent of wagging tail and looking in the eyes with derpy expression.
So, would this happen to GM if it had real power (was at or near the top ranks of the oligarchy)? The same applies to Facehug and its ilk.

The only way EVs will be practical will be to develop a lightweight, easily swapped-out battery. Something like Robert Heinlein’s “Shipstones”. The charging infrastructure just isn’t there. Even if they get the charging time down to an hour, how many people want to sit around a service station waiting for a charger ton open up? Back to the future with the 70’s gas lines!

The trick is not fast recharge but battery capacity, that is to say greater than human endurance.
If you have enough battery to last all day you can recharge at night, whether that be at home or at your motel.
Oddly enough this may be in the offing with the advent of the solid state battery. And coupled with 4th Generation Nuclear we’ll have the Green New Deal without government “help”.
What do you want to bet Our Glorious Leadership will stand in the way of that?

The industries are getting very close to batteries with a high energy density, light weight, fast charging time (less than 20 minutes) and the capacity to run an EV (decent size car) for 500 miles.
I bought a 100AH LiFePO4 battery last year, that has a 11 year guarantee and very square power curve. It’s also expensive. Supposed to be good for 2,000-5,000 charging cycles. It holds a charge for weeks (months?) on end. It’s in my sailboat. I charged it the beginning of December and it’s still at float voltage of 13.3VDC. Max charge rate is 50A@14VDC. Oh, did I say it weighs 31lbs? That’s less than a flooded 50AH battery. Size is 13X6.7X8.6 inches. So far, I’m impressed. It had light use this past summer. We’ll see how it does after heavy use this summer.
February 2, 2021 at 12:45 pm
My Way Or -->
There are charging stations in many, many places, but they seem to cluster around heavily populated areas like Big Citeez. Not everyone wants one, either, since a battery will run down faster than a tankful of gas.
I do have a friend whose spouse chose the EV and bragged about it, then got stuck on stormy night in a line behind a dozen other EV cars. Not so happy after that, as it was cold and the heater wasn’t producing enough heat.
February 2, 2021 at 10:14 pm
John M.
I’m sure the plan is they will want you to use your home charging station, and stay within round-trip range of your residence as much as possible.
What no one has explained to my satisfaction is: If they shut down all the fossil-fueled generating plants, where is the electricity coming from? Fairy Dust and Unicorn Farts?

All this “electric” BS is showing the progs totally lack of education.
They cannot have wind, solar, cell phones, computers, Nike shoes, and All the many other things they desire without OIL products and existing ELECTRICITY!
We do not have enough of rare earth minerals they ALL require in readily obtainable form.
Worst of all they use SLAVE child labor in Africa and get the rest from China. Probably slave labor also.
IF, this is not one of the many Solyndra type crony welfare government scams, that is a great industry that the USA needs desperately. Especially if it is aimed at refining the bulk of rare earth minerals that are not easily obtained and processed from the earth.
If you call Chinese and African slave labor easy.
The ridiculous moral “superiority” of the Democrats is their impervious shield protecting the exposure of their ignorance and, most of all, bad intentions. Zed is correct, and Thor’s Hammer could not penetrate their refusal to reason or face truths.

Funny how Elon Musk keeps getting drawn into our discussions of survival and prosperity in the immediate future.
His EV company Tesla is in fact a revolutionary power company and its home base is the new Gigafactory in Nevada. It will produce revolutionary lithium-ion batteries for Tesla (which had consumed nearly all the production from Panasonic etc before) as well as revenue from selling them to others…makin EV’s almost but not quite capable of what the left thinks they can somehow just demand.
But the power systems are more than just batteries, and the energy storage and transportation revolution that is the true purpose will enable a Yuge symbiotic relationship with SpaceX and Starlink. The most vertically (heh) integrated planned technological enterprise on -and off- the planet.
And with a nod to the reality of climate evolution and our contribution to it, but more importantly to gain support or at least reduced resistance from the pretend ecological saviors of the progressive world, his 100M investment in carbon capture is eating their lunch and “cancelling” their anti-human culture in one swoop.
And the dude is on our side…if we don’t screw up the free enterprise nature and embrace of the Constitutional Republic of America to help enable the Brave New Industrial/Technological/Economic Revolution at the hands of super-brilliant and super-rich thinkers/engineers/inventors/investors like him.
We have a way out, but the path is not through fighting old and never-ending battles or even trying to take back the failed edifices of a failed (and destroyed) former Republic but through Separation from it and formation of the next one. It will require those like Elon, and the body and/or spirit of a Trump, but many more like us Deplorables who are willing and able to create it and defend it to the death if need be.
