Electric Cars Are ESG...Especially When the Power Goes Out!

Now is a great time to go electric, especially if you live in California! If you’ve got a spare $60K lying around, buy an electric car, because electric cars are ESG — especially when the power goes out! And if you already have an electric vehicle, go ahead and put that sucker on the charger ASAP! You might just help glitch out the matrix!

You’ve probably heard that California governor Gavin Newsom issued an executive order requiring all new vehicles sold in the state to be zero-emissions (a.k.a, electric) by 2035.

Elsewhere in the Golden Gilded State this week, California’s power grid operator declared a stage 3 energy emergency alert and warned that rolling blackouts were possible. Apparently, the hot Labor-Day weekend overloaded the power grid, and according to Fox Business News, “some 67,000 Californians were without power Monday evening.”

Today, Governor Newsom asked Californians to limit their electricity usage until 9PM. He specifically advised that people avoid using large appliances. I wonder if electric vehicles count as “large appliances?”

CALIFORNIA: We’re now in a Flex Alert. What does that mean? We all need to conserve as much energy as possible during this record breaking heatwave. Here’s what to do until 9pm tonight: - Set thermostats to 78 - Turn off unnecessary lights - Avoid using large appliances

Apparently Gavin Newsom wants to model California after Sri Lanka, which has a stellar ESG score of 98 out of 100. With all that ESG, it’s only a matter of time before Sri Lanka becomes the worlds biggest and most prosperous economy!

So if you live in The People’s Republic of Californiastan, make sure you charge up your electric vehicles before the rolling blackouts hit!

Eventually Governor Newsom will destroy his state’s already strained power grid with ESG-friendly executive orders, and Californians will be using candles to light their homes and horses and buggies to get around town because none of the modern technology will work anymore. And when that day comes, Californians will be able to take pride in their perfect ESG scores and net-zero emissions!

In the meantime, it appears that the simulation we’re in is glitching out uncontrollably. Our psychopathic politicians no longer even care to pretend that anything they tell us to do today is in any way consistent with what they told us to do yesterday. Maybe if enough Californians charge their electric cars all at once, it will really short-circuit the matrix?

Newsom was uber late to the game w/ that tweet too. Being in a Flex Alert was the least of concerns. https://greenleapforward.substack.com/p/ca-blackouts-gaslighting-or-gas-saving
