Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Same as everybody else here, I think. If you live in the current world, that sucks, where you need a car to live, and you have the means, yeah, get an EV.

In a world that's good? Uhh, I mean I'd rent one a couple times a year when I really need one. In a walkable community, with free and comprehensive public transportation, there would be no point in owning a car at all. It would be like trucks now: yeah, they're useful on occasion, but why own one?

And obviously they're extremely good in situations where a small vehicle is actually necessary. Plumber, locksmith, electrician? Yeah, you need an electric van to go help out folks at their homes.
