In 2001, after building my own electric scooter for riding from my home in Over-the-Rhine to my office at Fifth Third Bank Tower, providing endless amusement for the neighborhood and fellow employees, I set to work on adapting diesel-electric freight train technology to an advanced series hybrid, diesel-electric semi-tractor trailer truck with a cooperative franchise converting existing trucks.
Over the past 20+ years, I've repeatedly tried having calm, rational discussions about this concept, and every single time been absolutely excoriated by Cis white man children of the EV community.
In fact, every single project of mine based on proven, evidentiary science has been attacked in every DIY community I've ever tried joining.
Apparently, nothing is real until white men say so.
