They are more efficient than pure ICE vehicles though in most situations.

At low speed and city driving the regenerative breaking can make a 30mpg motor into a 50-60 mpg motor.

I drove one for awhile and the efficiency is noticable.

Sounds like she was punished to me.

You want to get things like this passed, you get a big enough group to just walk around down town in the rich area open carrying and mean mugging everyone.

Make the upper class uncomfortable. You'll get that passes in no time.

It's no different, both scenarios are threats to your life until the point the trigger is pulled (then it goes from threat to attempt).

I think the per capita measurement of pollution for China is not really an apples to apples comparison to other first world nations as so much of their population lives in poverty.

I think the issue in the US is that there are so many guns per capita and the population is so anti authority that it will take generations of confiscation before you'll get a majority of personal firearms out of personal hands.

And in the meantime you've removed the right for individuals to have the opportunity to defend themselves in dangerous situations.

It certainly happens.

Just last week I saw a video where a man ran up with a gun to start a robbery. A woman whipped a handgun out of her purse and shot him.

The idea that personal firearms can't be used for self defense is a silly argument.

They where none stop shelling Donbass

Yes, it so happens a civil war was being fought there.

But the majority of the fighting ended with the second Minsk accords. After 2017 on average only about a dozen people died a year from combat actions. So there couldn't have been much shelling going on in 2022.

How does a dozen or two deaths a year warrant an escalation to a hundred thousand deaths a year?

took away the rights of the Russian speaking population many times

Which rights, when did this happen? I'm honestly curious abuot this.

flagrantly violated both minsk accords.

Both sides did that. A lot.

But what does that have to do with Russia's 2022 invasion? Putin himself said that Russia would not get involved in the enforcement of the Minsk accords because it was an internal Ukrainian matter.

Also you are convenently forgetting that Russia has REPEATEDLY offered peace treaties,

Because Russia wants to not only keep the land they've invaded but also dictate the way Ukraine conducts it's diplomatic relations with other nations. Ukraine is fighting for it's sovereignty here. Russia is trying to take that away.

Oppressed how?

Across all sides (Civilian, Military, Ukranian and Russian), an estimated 150-200K people have died and half a million wounded since the start of the invasion in 2022.

What kind of oppression could possibly been having taken place that necessitates such an escalation?
