It just moves the pollution to places you don’t see it, like power plants, rare metal mines

The thing is, many places already have power that is free of CO2 emissions and mines are not huge CO2 emitters (afaik).

As a case point: In Toronto, 30% of our emissions are from vehicles, 60% from buildings (natural gas heating mostly). If we ran all EVs, that 30% emissions from vehicles would be eliminated because nearly all our power either comes from hydro dams or nuclear power plants. And there's no shortage of power either - we have loads of excess capacity at night, when everyone would charge their cars.

I think you're getting downvotes because you're misinformed about the cost/benefits of EVs and the broader important (and urgency) of reducing carbon emissions. It's such a critical and urgent challenge that we have to tackle this to avoid huge impacts on our economies due to heating of the climate (crop failures, flooding, more severe weather, erosion, wildfires, etc.).
