Um, those are facts. That quote was pulled directly from Wikipedia. It's got numerous sources if you'd like those too. It also lists the tiny percent derived from electrolysis too. So what part of "most hydrogen is a byproduct of fossil fuels and doesn't remove our dependence on them or the climate destruction they caused" was gaslighting? Because again, those are just facts.

Which was written by BEV fanatics. Still gaslighting. Sources are also just bullshit from BEV fanatics. None of it is real. It's just all made-up crap. Even the grid will be partially powered by hydrogen due to the need for long-duration energy storage. So even BEVs will need hydrogen to reach zero emissions. That's just how ludicrous the corporate propaganda has gotten. It literally denies its own basis for existence, because the BEV industry simply cannot let hydrogen take off on any level. They know, deep down, that it is the primary disruptive threat to the BEV, and it will kill off the BEV if it ever gained marketshare.
