The EU executive appears to have yielded to the call from carmakers to be allowed to keep selling plug-in hybrids and range extenders with CO2-neutral biofuel or synthetic fuel
the electric vehicle industry says this will undermine investment and result in the EU yielding even more ground to China in the shift to EVs


I’m not in any way saying that everything that’s going wrong in Europe is the fault of the US. We’ve certainly had fascists here ever since fascism was invented as a concept, which happened in Europe, as we all know.
What I’m talking about are the recent political developments where all kinds of malignant actors are using US run social media platforms to normalise fascism. There was a time when there was a broad societal consensus that fascism is bad. Now people will argue with you if you say that and the corporate media will report on it as a “controversy”.
