agreed, also, what is with all these articles written/submitted in favor of Chinese EVs in US? do they not know we are currently fighting an indirect war with China, with China supplying Russia's invasion against Europe being supplied by US? do they not know China is basically the backer for Houthi, Iran, North Korea, and Russia?

China is kicking our ass in the technologies of the future (batteries, EV, renewable energy, nuclear.) If you believe China is a threat, then you should absolutely be reading articles like this one. Historically the US won wars by leading in the manufacture of this tech, and we should be fully aware of the consequences of losing that edge. It’s still not too late for us to do something about it.

A single article that doesn't portray China negatively in the US media and people are going crazy.

I didn't read the whole article because of the paywall, but I was taking it from the angle of "why can't we encourage this kind of development in America?" As opposed to "we should import Chinese cars."

I am frustrated by it because I feel like we could be doing better. I mean, the best thing would be to invest in public transport but I would also be happy with more cheap car offerings.

The answer to “why can’t we do things China does” is we decided a long time ago that we value environmental and worker protection more than China does.
