1 year agoSo you’re calling someone a retard, but the point isn’t specifically to offend people?

Maybe it’s time for you to learn that it’s not your intentions that count, but your actions. And your action in this case is definitely offending someone because they don’t agree with you.
The proper response would be to just say why, in your opinion, both sides are the same isn’t the case, and why you think it’s a bad take on the situation.
Yeah, the policy causes more cars to be sold, which is also an important thing to take into account.
But you initially said “If most people replace their cars every three years they’re not getting to 80,000 km before they buy a new one.”, and that is plain wrong, the car is not scrapped after those 3 years, so when it changes owner for the first time is irrelevant. And that 80k km is worst case scenario, that assuming all electricity is generated in the least environmental way possible, in practice it’s often <40k km that there is already a break even because not all electricity is generated by coal.
