You don't believe the animals are dying? Or that the temperature is rising, or that the oil companies research who agree are telling the truth? Exxon has been telling us this since the 1970s.
I share your frustration. There are many narratives on Lemmy that you’re supposed to just know and parrot. Asking questions, even just for more information, is blasphemy. It’s plain pathetic.
If their questions were innocuous that's fine. Mine were as well. I presented a reasoning as to how millions will die as they asked. Then asked if there was part that they didn't believe in, and gave them a link to information about the subject. I didn't cuss, I didn't name call.
The person they are inquiring about is running on a campaign which has stated they will undo those environmental protections, and on the promise to "drill baby drill".
The cuss words came from them. (Fucking)
And the name calling came from you (pathetic, which by the way, it's okay to be frustrated, I'm not upset with your guy's questions)
I believe all of that is happening with or without the results of this election. Some problems are bigger than red vs blue. We are failing en toto on this one. True, the in-flight movie on the Trump plane to hell is suckier than the one on the Harris plane to hell, but they land in the same place.
