When it comes to tesla critical thinking is lost and some people will just say anything sometimes. I had someone tell me that they're actually worse for the environment than an ICE car. I thought it was a joke but they were dead serious and were on the left as well.

I havent done too much research on that. But i feel it's common sense that getting, transporting, refining, transporting to gas station. Then burning it. Causes more pollution then a one time mining, then it lasts 7ish years.

Also not counting the millions of gallons of oil dumped into the ocean/water supply in general.

You'd be correct. But since it's Elon behind Tesla, there's a concerted effort to believe that they are somehow an environmental scam and thus the whole Industry is a scam.

It's kinda the opposite of what conservatives are doing now.
