1. Consumer "choice" isnt really a choice in a lot of instances. Many people would love an electric car if they could afford it, or if their community had the charging stations that would make it viable. If you arent in a place to finance a new car you dont really have a choice.

2. fuck thats a really cynical take on progressive activism. what's it like thinking that no one believes anything?

For your electric car example, that may be true, but at the same time, the Ford F150 has been the number one selling vehicle in the United States every year since 1976. It's not as if everyone is clamoring for an electric car, but they settle for an affordable Prius instead.
