Not sure I get the humour? Is it "don't fix anything unless you can fix everything?"
It's meant to underline that cars in general aren't that healthy for the the environments we live in and our people, even if we switch completely to electric. I think it's to combat the notion that if everyone just buys an electric car, we'll all be fine.
Bingo. In short, #fuckCars.
They aren't a fig leaf, they're a bandaid. They fix the emissions problem which is currently the most pressing issue. They aren't a perfect solution but they are one that is applicable now and fighting against them is just playing directly into the fossil fuel industries hand. Fighting for better public transport is great but until that happens electric vehicles are harm reduction.
