mark twain said its easier to convince someone of a lie than it is to convince them they've been lied to. mr peters addresses that premise though a bit obliquely;

It’s interesting the way EV Fever and “Vaccine” pushing have tracked together. In particular, the way the people who took (and pushed) the drugs that weren’t “vaccines” didn’t acknowledge they were wrong (or misled) or express regret (or anger about being misled) but instead found endless ways to rationalize what they did (and pushed).

It’s the same with EVs, too.

Rather than acknowledge the numerous flaws or express anger about such things as having been misled about how far EVs actually go in real-world driving, they make excuses for their battery powered devices. It’s no big deal that the device’s range is 20-30 percent less than advertised; that it plummets in cold weather; that the battery has lost a third of its charge capacity after just seven years of driving; that it costs a third more (and rising) to insure a device because of its higher repair costs and the built-in fire risk . . .

It’s still “safe and effective,” so to speak. Like the boosters these same people continue to take, they’d buy another device in spite of the objective failings of their first device.
