We are a bad boss! Ban charging your electric car so as not to explode the network!!

“We’re bad bosses,” Lidl’s famous ad declares.

In fact, California bans electric vehicle charging due to the heat wave.

To quickly summarize the situation.

1 / You no longer buy a thermal car, but electric cars.

2/ Ban thermal cars by 2035. So buy more electric cars.

3/ Once you buy electric cars, don’t charge them in the summer because they are too hot, and maybe in the winter because they will inevitably be too cold.

4/ Take a look at that $100,000 Tesla and put chickens or cats in there. They will be fine there.

5/ Have a good glass of wine and lament that you are spoiled!

That’s what the point says.

“If the heat waves are reduced in Europe, and temperatures are more likely at the end of August, in the United States, the heat wave is still intact and the atmosphere is stifling. Americans are suffering from it, and so is their electricity grid. The authorities fear the temperature will rise. In the state California, electric vehicle recharging has been banned since Wednesday, August 31, in order not to overwhelm the old electric grid, which has been revitalized by this horrific heatwave.

And the country announced last week that it will ban the sale of new gasoline-powered cars from 2035.

Temperatures were expected to reach 44 degrees Celsius in the Los Angeles suburbs as a thermal dome over the American West”.

They take us for fools!

“But the call not to charge your electric car has been widely mocked on social networks, at a time when the state is promoting this type of vehicle.
“California just made electric cars mandatory and requires residents not to charge them between 4 and 9 p.m.?” Republican Senator Tom Cotton quipped on Twitter.

You see, the problem of reality is reality itself.

Reality is neither racist, nor anti-gay, nor anti-gay, nor anti-Russian, nor anti-person.

The truth is harsh. the cold. Reality.

Truth is a wall of awakened ideologues who imagine a world that exists only in their illusions and sincerely believe they can shape it.

The problem is that when there’s nothing left to eat, when you can’t keep yourself warm, let alone move, delusions about the supposed masculinity of a barbecue will be the least of the residents’ fears.
