It's more of an accent thing than actually mixing up the words. They're saying "ask", it just sounds like "axe." Though it's more common with people from the ghetto. Locally I've seen a series of commercials advertising 1-800-Ask-Gary and the spokeswoman there often sounds like she's saying "Axe", for example.

Eectric cars won't (don't) pay a fuel tax that pays for your roads. But they still contribute to the wear and tear of those roads. The more electric cars the worse the state of your roads.
Any taxes paid by electric cars for the power that goes into their batteries won't be ear-marked for road funds the way fuel tax is.

Because heavy metals like lithium aren't doing any harm. It's not like there's tons of pollution from making the batteries, disposing of the batteries and even from the fucking electricity you use to charge your battery, right?
It's funny how people "concerned with the environment" actually have no fucking clue what they're talking about.

Okay I will level with you
- A lithium battery is good for four years
- The same volume of gasoline is good for one or two hundred miles
- Lithium batteries are recyclable, which makes them virtually limitless.
- You will never stop having to make new oil pits to get more oil
- Considering the demand vs the amount available for both, lithium supply is virtually infinite and oil is liable to run out within centuries.
- Oil makes a shitload of greenhouse gases. Except for coal, all electric power sources are significantly cleaner than gasoline in terms of air pollution.
- Oil production may look "clean" when it's just pulled from oil wells, but making oil from tar sands is polluting as fuck, and fracking wastes a shitload of clean water on top of sullying the clean water in the area where it's done.
- Explosion engines require more maintenance

The intense stupidity of this post and the number of average joe citizens who take it as fact gave me insight as to why we aren't using NPPs for almost all of our power. People are too dumb to realize the safeties in place 200% guarantee a Chernobyl will never happen, and think a fucked up Russian knock off reactor in the 1970s with zero working failsafes is comparable to something built today.

So many better energy solutions wasted thanks to the ignorance of the masses.

Yeah but nuclear power makes a shitload of waste. If we're gonna replace fossil-fuel plants, shouldn't we rather invest in hydroelectricity, solar, wind, and in figuring out satellite solar panels and nuclear fusion?

Yeah, for sure, but it is a fantastic interim solution. Also modern NPPs produce far less waste and the waste itself is less hazardous with thorium replacing uranium.

Do you even engineering bro? Do you know how about the design of nuclear power plants? The steam and water is in a closed system, only the cooling water is not in a closed system and it does not emit tons of steam because it cools down to liquid form before.

What's bad isn't that you have to mine a hole in the ground, you retards........
Here in Germany, we have a lot of lakes that are man-made, because we used to mine for goods, but after we were out of resources, we filled the hole up with water and now they're beautiful lakes, adored by many for recreational sports such as swimming, snorkeling, motorboating, fishing, etc.

What's bad about the oil is:
1. it's a very limited resource that we will run out of soon, this is the reason we're looking for alternatives in the first place
2. when you burn that shit, it rips a hole into the atmosphere of earth

The thing about this image that really infuriates me is that there's an easier way to shitpost about electric cars then having to make misleading images.

All you have to do is say "The plant that generated that energy you used to charge your car polluted the environment just as much as a gas powered car would."
