Just witnessed this meeting of the minds on FB

People arguing about the price of gas, but as soon as someone mentions driving an EV they're "stupid" and woke
I will miss my manual transmission car. What do you not understand? I have a Honda Accord and the manual is what made it actually fun to drive. Feels so much more like driving, more engaged with what I am doing. Even my kid who resisted learning to drive it now always wants to take my car everywhere. This is likely my last gas powered car, a 2014 I bought new, but yes I love driving a manual shift car, never have I bought an automatic. Also clutch & manual gearbox so much cheaper to fix. When the automatic transmission fails, the car is basically totalled, and it will fail eventually.
I will miss my beloved manual shift car, yes.
Driving an EV is like driving a single speed manual, not an automatic, especially if it has any amount of performance. The throttle response is instantaneous, no waiting for the torque converter, shifting, or power building. Also, when driving in a high regeneration mode, letting off the pedal feels like downshifting a gear or two. It’s super engaging and the instant response feels so smooth and natural.
