I am very aware. It is not even in the same ballpark. The only reason it's brought up is (intentionally or not) to muddy the waters.
I support working to mitigate the issue. I understand it is a problem. I in no way support bringing it up as a point against EVs in a thread filled with disinfo and propaganda.
You said some made up small number that you thought might be shedding off of tires. You're clearly not aware at all.
Telling you facts about EV pollution issues is not disinformation, it's quite literally the opposite.
I said no one gives a fuck. It's like trying to repair a minor leak when there's a giant gaping hole in the ship. Diverting resources to it is actively harming us.
