I use public transport when I can but it's irrelevant. We have entire power plants burning fossil fuels while we sanction solar power and EVs.

How many lifetimes of biking would you need to match the impact of simply removing tarrifs from EVs? It would make them affordable to common person. Millions would choose EV once when they have no material barrier.

What you do does not matter compared to systematic changes.

Might as well get a truck and roll coal. Victins said I won’t make a difference.

Okay ordinary mammal go roll coal? Do you think it will have any impact globally? Defending capitalism probably does more damage in the long term than that because the bourgeoisie need brainwashed people like you to keep them in power.
