I wonder why that smear campaign is happening <i>now</i>. Is there something obvious I'm missing, like Tesla being <i>too</i> successful or something?
I haven't been impressed with either of the two electrek.co articles on HN recently. This one and another 15 days ago [0].<p>In this, the author's all over the place.<p>He undermines his own argument by showing XOM gets $0.4B in subsidies v. TSLA's $2.4B. But he doesn't compare XOM directly with TSLA's figures. Instead, he compares XOM to SCTY ($1.1B) -- which has MORE subsidies than XOM!!!<p>[0] <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12919693" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12919693</a>
