    Yes and no but isn’t it interesting that everyone buys suvs (because of the demand!!) if all you can buy are suvs?

    That’s what I mean by lie. The whole context and responsibility or influence of the consumer.

        It’s not really choice if all I can buy are suv?

        It’s the illusion of a free market with monopolies and controlled conditions.

            I’m in Europe, just for context.

            No, I didn’t. There was literally one car at that time which was electric, had a good range and the price was acceptable and it was an MG suv.

            All others were like at least +50% of that price at the time without having palpable benefits. So fuck me for not simply throwing 20k more out there just for funsies, right?

            That’s where reality sets in and people buy what they can for their requirements.
