With ICE, you control the population by controlling the oil. Like rest of the world has to eat up price raise without much retaliation, what else you're going to do, you have to work and you depend on oil. But since China is the major producer of batteries and EVs, the nations that dictate the policies are losing that control.
So US does what it does best, propagandize the masses. Mass produced solar panels are bad, EVs are unreliable, e-bikes are a menace.
The world powers will turn the world to ruins if it serves their interests.
God how do you get out of bed every day.
America held the printing press invention dear to the heart. It was the best way to manufacture and distribute propaganda.
News is a profit driven industry and it's written by the sponsors. This is as true for NYT as it is for Alex Jones. The sooner people realize this the sooner we can dig ourselves out of this whole mess.
Well yeah, NYT is profit driven, there's no nefarious intent.
Yes, this is why all news should be treated as "Trust but verify". And if that verification consistently turns up as bunk, that's a bad news.
Problem is nearly everybody is bad news. It's always either lying through omission, single-sided story telling, assumed guilt, or just straight up misinformation.
If a news story comes along that could interfere with the profit of the owners of the NYT, what do you think their intent would be?
