I just don't understand why cheap EVs are a bad thing...

They aren’t. Biden is completely beholden to feckless auto worker unions who will fight tooth and nail against it.
Chinese EVs are orders of magnitude better bang for the buck than anything the non Tesla automakers are pumping out. If the legacy US based auto makers actually start producing EVs at scale, a lot of these people would be out of jobs because EV assembly lines are far more efficient and automated.

liberals really can't help themselves

American auto companies decided to not invest shit on EV for years, but is the workers fault that China is winning the EV market.

They're feckless but also have the president under their thumb. Makes sense.

Sometimes you come across a seemingly based comment on that sub and then you read further for the brainworms to kick in.
