>after factoring in harms they do to human rights and the environment

America c. 2025 and beyond has no leg to stand on in terms of espousing care of human rights and environment.

>even EU despite claiming to be morally superior to the US, heavily tariffs BYD (much more than the tariffs that the globe mocks Trump for).

You are technically correct... because Trump did not actually Tariff BYD directly. The 100% EV tariffs was a Biden era move, made to give American manufacturers time to develop their own EV solutions for the domestic market. Separate from whatever global tariffs Trump announced.

And then trump ended EV credits, and ultimately pushed the road down to American manufacturers giving up on their EV initiatives.
