      No need to be a smartass, I’m genuinely curious if they are importing batteries from somewhere else

      And if China, where are the mines so I can check out the environmental destruction on satellite imagery

            I mean it’s not that simple because you can’t recycle the entire battery

              The number I’m seeing is up to 95% recyclable. That’s preeetttty much the entire battery. Are you talking about something else?

          I never said it’s not better than oil, I never even mentioned climate change. Lemmy sucks, you guys are dicks, like fuck me for asking a question lol

          Worse community than reddit, fuck you guys. This is why lemmy is never going to grow. Wonder why comment sections are dead? You are the problem.

          To answer your question, yeah I follow news, that’s why I assume China is probably strip mining for metals in the worst way possible. Of course mass producing batteries is going to be environmentally destructive. So where are the mines?

              China is massive, where in China? Why can’t you just answer my question instead of being a dick?

          I don’t know, sometimes I put that when I think people are going to assume I am trolling/stirring the pot when I am, in fact, genuinely curious. I use it in particular when I am engaging with something I don’t feel like I know a lot about. though I understand how the term has become loaded because bad actors will feign ignorance/curiosity in order to hide their intentions and make the person there talking to look bad
