How about do the right thing and not do it for a profit.

The whole point of electric vehicles is to help people create less emissions.

The whole point was and is to sell cars.

Combustion engine vehicles, yes.

But EVs have a philosophy that is also sold with it.

Um, no. The car companies have one and only one philosophy: to sell cars for profit.

Seems they're having an issue selling EVs for profit though.

Why do you believe that is the case?

Perhaps you should sell all your stuff, create a car company, and sell cars at a loss?

I’m not a capitalist, I don’t have anything to sell.

No shit.
