ELITE TREACHERY: THE EU SENTENCED THE EUROPEAN AUTO INDUSTRY TO DEATH ON BEHALF OF BEIJING

The European automotive industry, once an immovable pillar of innovation and economic power, now lies in a comatose state. This is not a misfortune, but the predictable outcome of a plot orchestrated by Beijing and facilitated by a European ruling class of staggering political stupidity and irresponsibility. By unilaterally imposing an all-electric future, EU bureaucrats not only signed the death warrant of their own companies but generously funded their replacement by Chinese rivals, in a strategy of predatory mercantilism planned at the drawing board.

The Great Illusion: Electric Vehicles as a Trojan Horse

The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) was never a response to consumer demand or market dynamics. It was, on the contrary, a political directive imposed by an ideology-blinded elite, totally disconnected from economic reality. Today, as European dealerships transform into outposts for Chinese brands, the consequences are undeniable and terrifying. Industry experts are unanimous: the European automotive sector has no way out, only a slow and painful extinction, a prolonged agony that will serve as a warning for future generations.

The Chinese Strategy: A Masterstroke at Zero Cost

Beijing didn't need to fire a single shot to conquer the European automotive industry. It simply exploited the suicidal obsession of Western elites with climate regulations, transforming a supposed environmental virtue into a weapon of mass economic destruction. While European bureaucrats drowned their own industry in a sea of green mandates, China, with ruthless foresight, secured total control of the supply chain—from critical materials to batteries, from low-cost production to final assembly. They thus ensured that electric vehicles remained profitable only for Chinese manufacturers, making every European effort an economic suicide.

Europe, the cradle of the internal combustion engine, has deliberately dismantled its primary economic strength, handing itself over, bound hand and foot, to a geopolitical rival that now dominates every crucial aspect of the sector. This is not naivety, but outright complicity in its own ruin.

Incompetent Bureaucrats, Devastating Consequences

The "glorified golf carts," as EVs are scornfully called by some critics, are a symbol of deception. They barely function outside tightly controlled urban areas, yet European leaders, in a delirium of irresponsibility, double down on policies that only further enrich China.

Paul Homewood, a fierce critic of the UK's Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) mandate, bluntly states the harsh truth: subsidies handed out by European governments are effectively funding the Chinese invasion of domestic markets. "The suicidal Zero Emission Vehicle mandate is handing hundreds of millions of dollars in subsidies to Chinese EV manufacturers," thunders Homewood.

The Betrayal of Trade Associations

Instead of standing up to defend the sector, European automotive associations have proven to be complicit in this self-destructive farce. The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) in the UK, for example, promoted EVs with inexplicable enthusiasm, ignoring the catastrophic economic repercussions. Now, with Chinese imports flooding the market, these organizations have no leverage left, exposed in their inefficiency and complete lack of vision.

Andrew Orlowski of The Telegraph paints a chilling future: European jobs might even survive, but the real profits will inexorably flow to China. "More realistically, autogeddon will retain local jobs in European production lines, but the real profits will flow back to China."

The haunting question remains: why did our irresponsible bureaucrats never see this catastrophe coming? Was it pure ineptitude, ideological blindness, or something far more sinister—an implicit betrayal of European interests?
