Principles, as the other poster mentioned. But I was in the market for a vehicle with certain properties, including being an EV. The Model Y checked a lot of boxes but couldn’t pull the trigger after Elon’s slide. It’s not as if I went and purchased an SUV because of tweets.

It’s a bad time for being in the market for a car.

ICE cars don’t make sense. Tesla is a no because of Musk. The other brands are not there yet in EV(in terms or range or charging network).

I concluded the best car to buy today is a Prius. If you can find one…

ICE cars make plenty sense if you care more about personal convenience than the environment. Even if gas stations eventually become impossible to find, that's many years off in the future. By the time that comes to pass you'll probably be looking for your next car again anyway.
