But Tesla's PR is absolutely working here - they've convinced you to zoom in on one thing and ignore all the intertwined issues. The silly climate protestors are protesting the thing that (Tesla's PR department has convinced you) will save the environment. > This is religion, not a coherent argument. Tesla is the reason vehicles are being electrified on a mass scale; nobody wanted EVs before they paved the way. Capitalism is a religion. The worship of profit above all else. Wanting human rights for the lithium and cobalt miners (and opposing the environmental destruction that results from that mining) is incoherent. It's incoherent to want access to clean and safe drinking water and oppose over extraction. Opposing the destruction of forests is incoherent. A "green" company destroying the environment for profit? Now, that's what I call coherent.
