      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)

          The problem is far beyond anything you did here. You engaged substantively more than others, so kudos - no need to defend your honor line by line :)
