I don't think he's offended by EVs. He just seems to not have embraced them in the same way you have.
If you take a step back and do a little self-analysis, you might see how much more of a loser mentality one must have in order to think anonymously insulting people on the internet, whose sole "crime" is they haven't embraced some new technology you've decided to embrace, makes you look informed or intelligent.
And the sentence about being on the wrong side of history? Pure hyperbole. And very lame hyperbole at that.
EVs may (or may not) help combat certain environmental problems. I sure hope they do, or if not EVs, I hope something does and quickly. But nobody really knows that EVs will be a net win, environmentally, when viewed from an historic perspective 100+ years down the road.
History has a habit of not turning out the way people think it will. In any event, at present, EV's are still a very long way off from being any kind of magic bullet.
