Post is funny, but AI memes are weird
The EVs the government really ought to be subsidizing are electric bicycles, not cars.
Right? I wish more people would consider the product life cycle analysis of what they want to purchase. Virtue signaling doesn't help, and nor does more scrap ending up in a landfill at the end of the cradle to grave trip.
I'd love an E bike! It would be great to take the train into the city for me and use it to get around. I haven't been able to afford insurance and still don't have a driver's license. It'd save me a killing and allow me to actually save my money than have it guzzled up by gas, car maintenance, and overall way less hassle for me. I'd rather not have to worry about features eventually getting pay walled by the shitfotainment system...

Is this ai generated ? or is it just poorly photoshoped because there's a lot of texture detail missing from the image
Edit: it also looks like someone told it to make Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and it created a Asian-European version of her because the face seems to similar
100% AI
Yeah, I thought it was just over smooth, but fuuuck.
Look at 1st girls teeth in 1st pic. They get bigger from left to right, despite the camera angle. 3rd pic, normal size. Also. See the glasses bridge between 1&3, changes shape, weorrd spot in eye on 3
In the 2nd panel, her hand has 5 knuckles
I thought it was too smooth and the rearview mirror on the third image proved it. What are you doing there??? 😂

Electric cars are still a 3 ton object you'll needlessly try to dispose of in 5 years.
Electric cars are here to save the car companies, not the environment.
Mine weighs 1.5 tons and is going strongly into it's sixth year of existence at about 95% capacity left. 3/4 of the year I'm driving it exclusively using power from my own roof. It uses about 14kWh/100km which is the equivalent of about 1.3 Liters of Gasoline. I fail to see how all of this is not an advantage.
You fail to see how basing an economy on the premise of (almost) everyone relying on 1.5ton machine to get around? I fail to see what's so difficult to see
While relatively better, it's still incredibly wasteful
So, what do we do with this insight? Like, right now?
We keep complaining, obviously.

this user posts a suspicious amount of AI generated memes
Yeah it's weird that they generated this, it distracted me from the meme itself

Not only does pink girl have 5 knuckles where one would expect to find only 4, but she's also somehow in the drivers seat at the same time as Glasses. And she's wearing her backpack while also seated.
Man, AI sucks.
90+% of the AI generated content is just straight garbage.
I don't get why people are so obsessed with it to be honest.

AI generated memes are truly the nadir of comedy
I don't drive a car, so where's my money for saving the planet? Where are my rebates for shoes and bikes?
Subsidizing the car industry is indeed dumb. I don't think it's hurting the economy though, as the goal is to continue to sell and replace millions of cars. Still, the infrastructure for cars is probably costing us much more on the long term though. Maintenance of expressways, space for parkings, and other infra for cars costs billions.
Just replacing a single expressway interchange in my city cost 4.3 billion! For ONE interchange.
So again, where are the rebates for people taking public transit? Where are the investments in public transit? Why is it only on the condition of BUYING A CAR?
Worth noting that the recent Infrastructure bill passed under Biden includes $108 billion for public transportation (Link). This is much larger than the $7.5B set aside for electric vehicles.
As much as I despise our car-centric infrastructure, climate change is a large enough threat that we should seriously consider and pursue multiple avenues of decreasing our emissions as fast as possible. Fully transitioning away from auto-dominant transportation in the US is, frankly, not realistic in a timely manner with the public support and resources available. Not only will transportation infrastructure need changing, but even the design of our cities. So while we should pursue broader public transportation, we should also pursue other initiatives with high likelihood of broad acceptance and rapid implementation. Electric vehicles seems to be one such initiative.
REI is leading an initiative to give tax incentives for electric bikes. Seems like they are the main voice behind it though and I don't dare to hope.

I bought a 2002 Honda insight. One of the first hybrids, except the electric motor went out, so it's all gas now. Still got slapped with an extra $150 so called "hybrid tax" so the state can subsidize a lower usage of gas that they would have received tax on. Literally incentivizes gasoline vehicles. What the fuck?
That's a badly designed piece of legislation.
It's blatant corruption working perfectly as designed.

2.5/10.
Not a strong effort.
Someone explain who's the good lad here?
That, and also why it looks (and possibly is) generated by an AI?
No it isn’t, it’s perfectly normal to have the rearview mirror on the side window
And door cards that change color and handle placement.
Because it’s cheap and ubiquitous
