Yes and stop selling bullshit electric vehicles, there is already the solution: public transport

Electric vehicles are another boost to the super rich car industry

I can't use public transit. So I guess if there's no cars, I'll be stuck at my house forever.

That's exactly the problem, you should be able to

I'm disabled in several ways, I don't want to talk about it.

Wow. Such a martyr. Willing to stay at home forever because they have been told individual cars have an impact towards climate change that you don't believe in.

People would rather the world burn than be inconvenienced even a little.

Nobody said "no cars". I'd like to see much fewer cars, and public transport that almost everyone can use.

Unfortunately we do still need cars. Mostly for things like farm use and last mile transportation. Having everyone live in a city near a train line is a great idea but you it definitely won't happen. Electric cars is the compromise we need to make with people in rural areas

Ok, but that is not the target group electric cars are targeting, see all Tesla models

Including "cyber truck" (always makes me chuckle to think that they are really trying to sell that crap)

Yeah Elon musk is a cuck and I'm not advocating for any specific manufacturer but realistically we will need some cars in the future no matter what. So I'd rather them be electric
