It's always rather telling how all of these people tend to have their car in their profile pics on their social networks instead of friends or family or things they do.
Their masculinity is defined by the stuff they own, and there are going to be a lot of snowflakes around who play victim in a few years who don't have solar installed, don't have an EV, and can't seek attention from others by reving their engine. They'll be complaining the government is costing them money and demand free money whereas they simply chose to not adapt and are actively making choices which are nonsensical
We're already at the point that a lot of people would probably rather prefer to ride in an EV with a mate than a performance car which they can't even utilize except at the track. Sports cars are boring now
