Blaming consumers for things that happen at least three indirections removed from them is childish. A consumer cannot know where all the resources are coming from.

Blaming EVs for this, is just as childish, if not actively evil, since the alternative would be oil extraction and that's not exactly clean and happy either.

You're so smart! I surrender, don't think I'm cut out for the marketplace of ideas!

Maybe just maybe it is bad to be mining resources from uncontacted tribes who could not possibly consent to any of this, no matter how much you want to abstract it and say it's no one's fault for doing it.

See, if you would have read my comment and actually bothered to understand it, you would have seen, that I haven't said no one is at fault here.

So I have to assume, you're arguing in bad faith, you're putting words in my mouth to defeat a straw man, while not addressing any of my actual points.

So maybe pull that infantile sarcasm out of your ass and try actually thinking about what you're saying.
