And there goes the so-called Cultural Marxism, which I perceive as a threat in other aspects. The "environmentalism" is used just as a smokescreen among other matters such as religion, family and other traditional values that sustained our Western civilization.

I like oatmeal, and have it every morning--not because oatmeal is inherently better than other breakfast foods, but because I grew up in a family that ate oatmeal every morning, just as my father grew up in a family that ate oatmeal every morning. Had I grown up in a family that ate Lucky Charms for breakfast instead, I would probably prefer that.
As you said, you would probably prefer Lucky Charms instead of oatmeal if you were exposed to it earlier. We could relate it to the brainwashing that kids are exposed to at school, but it's another matter.


Anyway, would I be open-minded to at least try an electric car? Yes. Would I feel more inclined toward an EV compared to an ICE-powered vehicle with a similar performance? Then I don't know for sure, but still believe I wouldn't.
