I find articles like "if somebody argues with you, here is what you should say" always so weird EDIT and as expected, very hilariously bad arguments 1. If people mention that charging EVs take too long, reply that they are impatient "curmudgeons" and they should anyways charge at night at home 2. If they can't charge at night at home, get a hybrid (WHAT?) I guess family dinner with the inane "curmudgeons" saved!

These articles are a response to bad faith brigading of bad arguments. Maybe you should focus on the behavior that makes articles like this necessary?

  I'm lost, on what behavior do you want me to focus on now?

    I think you can figure it out from context, if you aren't one of those bad faith actors.

Are they even in the market for a new vehicle to them? Maybe it’s better to learn to change the topic to something else.

> 2. If they can't charge at night at home, get a hybrid (WHAT?) It's entirely possible a BEV doesn't fit someone's lifestyle. This is a well known issue of BEV's - that charging takes longer than filling up a tank at a gas station. In this case, the advice to get a HEV is perfectly fine if you want some of the benefits of a BEV without the inconvenient issue of wall charging. Also, if the distances you drive are small, it won't make financial sense to get a BEV, which are more expensive than ICE vehicles of the same size.
