Just because you have a shovel doesn’t mean that you should keep digging.

You’ve obviously never sat in an EV, much less driven one. You should try it sometime, before common here and exposing your ignorance.

seems like the point I was making has gone over your head. No surprises there. The other poster asked what on the surface seemed like a reasonable question but included an advertisement from an ambulance chasing legal firm which immediately brought into doubt the sincerity of the question. You would have to be intellectually challenged not to realise that.

Has anyone been electrocuted changing a light bulb? Who’s responsible for inventing the light bulb? In any case, the thread posters have already casted their votes as to which of us is more intellectually challenged.

Hot weather, my behind. It’s all this EVangelists charging their Chinese made milk floats.

Good video on the Seal by a petrol head

Stupid… and stupider.

Could it be because they burn a lot of coal there? The less coal that is burnt, the higher your percentage would be, wouldn’t it?

So it looks like, apart from being a 3rd world country, the drivers in the US are not exactly competent either.

If I were living in America, I probably wouldn’t buy an EV either. Rubbish products, no Chines made EVs available. Poor charging infrastructure, crap maintenance (with the possible exception of Tesla supercharges), unreliable electricity generation. Power outages when too hot or too cold.

From what I gather, it seems that the problems are the respective incompetent governments and bureaucrats, the unnecessary bureaucracy, the lack of funds (although there’s plenty to spend on making war around the world), the determination to contain especially China by insisting on paying more for solar panels made in the west etc etc. If a country like China can provide enough electricity for its EVs when most of its population was bicycling only 40 years ago, it beggars description that western countries are struggling. To me, it’s a sign of their decline.

China doesn’t have deep sea ports all over the world because they don’t want to exert control or dominance, unlike the US. Very simply, between China and the US at the moment, which country is involved in both major wars happening? Hint (since you only get your information from MSM): it’s not China

One of us still is and I reckon the majority of posters know who… I previously owned an ICEV as that was the only option available. Hobson’s choice and all that you know. And then one morning, I woke up and saw the LIGHT… Now I’m SAVED from spending hard earned money on fossil fuels. Hallelujah!

More evidence that ICE drivers are rather, shall we say, intellectually challenged?

The poor performance of EV sales in the US has been well documented and discussed. Very simply, inferior products at exorbitant prices. Add to that, poor charging infrastructure. It’s a no brainer.

You really are a laugh a minute. Both sources you quoted are funded by the US State department. Any light bulbs going off?

Ah yes, I remember it well. Those were the days when it was a wholly owned British company. They sure know something about building cars in those days.

And there we have it. The perfect example of a brainwashed, propagandised westerner, who won’t buy a cheaper but undoubtedly superior product, just because he can’t let go of his bias and prejudices. But he posts in a thread that is for all intents and purposes, a thread about Chinese made cars. What a laugh.

Looks like a hybrid. I think I see a tailpipe. There has been quite a few reports of BYD hybrids catching fire. Notice also the fire starting in the engine compartment rather than battery pack which would have been located on the bottom of the car.

I think we need to report this post to the mods as I suspect this account has been hacked. I suspect @JBChiangRai as I believe he’s an IT guy…

+1. Conflicts in the South China Sea is a regional matter. Pretty much all affected countries have territorial disputes. China, PH, Brunei, Malaysia, Vietnam. But of course it suits the western narrative that it’s only China that is the aggressor. I remember a time when France, UK, Ireland and a few other countries were also having disputes with regards to the fishing waters. These disputes are best solved with diplomacy, not military conflict as espoused by the greatest war monger of them all.

Coming back on topic, I doubt any ASEAN country with the possible exception of PH would want NATO here. PH is probably the most corrupt country in SEA. The current president is the son of the second most politician the world has ever seen. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree and undoubtedly, the US has all sorts of unsavoury information on him. Japan might want NATO to protect it from China. China will never invade but Japan will always fear that China might take revenge for all the unspeakable evils that Japan has committed against China over the past few centuries. This is a country that will never feel peace until they acknowledge and apologise for their crimes against humanity. Korea might want NATO as protection against that unstable man to their North. I can understand that but if one believes in miracles, then a reunification will bring peace to the peninsula. Australia is just being dense. Due to its geographical location, it is pretty much un-invadable (if there’s such a word). All that Aussie Aussie Aussie oi oi oi and Vegemite has irreversibly reduced their collective IQ 9just joking). As for the US, of course they want it. Conflict and instability is what the country thrives on and for the real masters, the MIC, this is just good business.

You have really embraced all the western propaganda and washed it down with tonnes of kool aid. If ever there’s such a thing as a paid shill, you are it. All your arguments are straight out of the playbooks of the NED, RWB/RSF, USAID etc. To you, it’s ok for the US and it’s puppets to surround China and Russia with military bases but … Munro Doctrine ring any bells? To you, China and Russia are aggressors and bullies but which country has over 800 military bases around the world and which countries have been involved in more wars in the last few decades than China and Russia (and probably many other countries) combined? I of course know your response to that so you can save yourself some energy and no need to answer. Is Taiwan part of China? There is an uninformed poster who states that the Taiwanese don’t consider themselves part of China. There’s a clue in its name; Republic of China. The global majority sees very clearly what the US is trying to do. Cling onto its declining hegemony but still caught up in its hubris and ignorance. It’s only a matter time before the new world order and multipolarity and the peace that it hopefully brings will come to fruition.

China still has a long way to go before it can compete with the US as to number of vassal states under its command.

And I’m the one influenced by propaganda? Lol. With the exception of a few irrelevant island states, the whole world, including the US recognises Taiwan as part of the People’s Republic of China. Tell me, how can you violate your own airspace? The losing Kuomintang army under CKS retreated to Taiwan. If Taiwan was a sovereign state, then that would mean that the KMT invaded another country, won’t it?
