EVs are interesting because it's a classic example of people simplifying a multidimensional problem into one. It's not just pro-EV and anti-EV. There's also the orthogonal pro- or anti- car dimension.

For example, I'm anti-car. In principle I'm pro-EV, but I also see EVs making things even worse with respect to all the other damage cars do besides exhaust emissions. They are heavier, more powerful and at best neutral with respect to safety and social issues.

But if you look through the one dimensional lens I'm just "anti-EV" because I don't want them.
