Clearly you don’t live near a road where V8s and muffler less cars fly by. And Coal Powered plants are going extinct everywhere except China. Even in my Oil and Gas State, the local power company is building out a solar farm.
So your point is the world will be fine as soon as every person on earth drives an EV? We have a systematic problem and people get hung on the point of EVs vs. combustion engine cars. This should not be the question, they both suck in their own way.
Your footprint is massive if you get rid of your combustion engine car and buy an EV just for the sake of driving an EV. Better would be: get rid of your car entirely (if poasible) and buy a good bike.
And I belive it is already possible for many people and pure convenience is holding them back, while the world burns. And they buy EVs and pat themselfes on the shoulder, as ‘I am not the problem, the dirty combustion engines destroy the world’. Wrong direction of thinking, if you want to better the environment and life quality.
Yeah yeah, the topic makes ma irrational because it feels like a lost cause. Steering hard in the direction of a climate collapse just isn’t a nice future to look forward to.
But that would be reason enough for you to take away another peoples right to express an opinion for a year? That is a bit extreme as well. How did you get there?
It’s an indicator that a person uses a particular type of rhetoric - or worse, actually thinks in a way - that is incredibly harmful to any sort of rational discourse. You know it’s false, the person you’re pretending to quote knows it’s false, it’s exclusively said in bad faith, there’s no reason for anyone to ever say something like that. It doesn’t help you win an argument or convince anyone. It’s exhausting and childish and a waste of time.
Just make an honest argument, of which there are many. Don’t waste anyone’s time with that crap.
At leasts insults are amusing. The type of hyperbole you used isn’t.
Think of it this way: you know I’m willing to support insulting and trolling people and even I found what you said to be so bad I wish I could ban it. That should showcase exactly how bad it is, right?
A person saying insults are amusing just screams ‘ignore me’. I hope you will look back at your statement soon and feel at least some kind of embarrassment. Good luck to you.

Anyone who ever uses hyperbole like this should be barred from expressing any opinions for one year.

My point is that EVs are quiet. There’s no additional engine noise.
A two ton vehicle going over asphalt above 30 km/h is certainly not quiet. A bike is quiet.
An electric car going 40km/h really isn’t that loud. An electric car going 120km/h is pretty loud.
