You know how long it takes to refuel my car? About 5 seconds. That’s about how long it takes to drag the connector over and plug it in before I head inside.
I also don’t have to worry about being mugged inside the store, having things stolen from my vehicle, or even the vehicle itself stolen, or having my credit card skimmed and stolen.

Most of those things could happen regardless of what kind of car you have, or where your car is.
You don’t need to go to a gas station for most of those things to happen, either. Actually, a gas station is probably safer that your average store parking lot, so you should probably avoid those as well.
Now that I think about it, any time my cars have been broken into, I have been home. Any time my card was skimmed, it wasn’t at a gas station.
Most of the world doesn’t have drives needing more than a full EV battery, not even most of the US. EV sales are up, and in a lot of places, it’s shifting to be the norm.
Buying ICE, especially a truck when you don’t need one is a statement, not buying an EV like everyone else.
Sorry, are you really just going to deny the many crimes taking place at gas stations?
Once your battery is empty you’re in for a long wait.
Your battery should never be empty. With modern charging tech it’s usually ~15 mins. at a fast charger to go 10-80%. The car is usually ready before me.
Plus the chances of your card being cloned with a chip and pin machine in a shop are so close to zero
You’re out of your depth. This still happens all the time.
Yeah, no, that’s completely false.

They don’t happen if you don’t go to the gas station. If my car is electric I don’t need to go to the gas station.

Your fear of gas stations seems unrealistic.

I think for a commuter car ev is the way to go especially if your jobsite has free or subsidized charging, then an ICE car for camping and road trips

Do you think burning diesel doesn’t “damage” your engine? Do you think transmissions last indefinitely?

Quite the opposite, actually.

I’m not sure where you’re getting your info from but no one fast charges their battery for 10 years.
Oh shoot then why do I always see people sitting in their cars in parking lots charging if it only takes 5 seconds
Believe it or not there are actually different types of charging. The type you’re referring to is rarely to never necessary for most people.
