    Here’s hoping they prevail & that they inspire others either way.

    Do like the slogan on that banner.

    When you call yourself “Verkehrswende” but protest an EV factory. You can’t make that shit up.

      EVs only eliminate tail pipe pollution, otherwise they are more of the same.
      They are multi ton metal boxes rolling on rubber wheels over asphalt roads, often to transport a single person. The create the same amount of traffic and waste the same amount of land on parking. Due to their heavy battery and better acceleration they create more fine particulates of wheel rubber.

      EV are a Verkehrsrichtungsänderung, a Verkehrswende consists of trains and public transit.

        It’s still Germany, cars are not going anywhere. Also there is much bigger car manufacturers that still produce gasoline cars. I hate Elon as much as the next guy, but protesting the one EV factory just seems silly.

        But at least it’s a big step up from throwing soup at paintings.
