    I am so fucking fed up with every right wing numbnut calling it a combustion engine ban. It does not ban combustion engines.

    All manufacturers need to do, is make their combustion engines clean, then they can continue selling them 2035 and beyond. But it’s obvious, they are incapable of doing so, combustion engines have been pretty stagnant, almost as if they have reached their limits…

    Please literally replace any instance of “German’s Merz” with “Coal, Gas & Car lobby”

      We know it is the car industry, since there was a leak, which showed Merz party having their position directly edited by one of their lobbying organizations.

      Germany is intressting in that basically all the oil assets are foreign owned. For gas the big lobbying group are the utilities.

    “We made the wrong decision, and we will correct it,” said the German chancellor at a conference of his SME association in Cologne. He would “put a spoke in Brussels’ wheel.”

    It’s insane how they fetishize fossiles.

    Ah, German nazis blaming other races for their supposed “weakness”? But German electric cars are some of the best in the world, so this is just stupid and weird nazi propaganda.
