I think it would only be electric vehicles would be functional in a post apocalyptic scenario.

I don’t think people appreciate the complexity of oil refineries and oil supply chains. A lot of the oil industry is happening somewhere else and people don’t think very much about how fragile it is despite the large number of economic problems caused by even minor disruptions in that industry.

And gas goes bad after about a year. So…

It’s far simpler to to set up a wind turbine to charge an electric car than it is to rebuild all of that oil industry infrastructure.

Preppers should really have electric cars and wind turbines and solar power. But those types tend to be just paranoid and don’t really think straight.

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.
