This bullshit has been thoroughly debunked many many times.
Interestingly, the specific article cited is more making the case that all passenger cars are bad, and we'd be better off with e-bikes, transit, and walkable cities. i.e.: I don't think hes saying 'EVs are worse than ICE," which is where the 'lifetime emissions' line usually goes. He's saying "fuck cars, EVs not excepted."
This is the reality many don’t accept.
We can’t everyone gets a private vehicle our way out of climate change.
