Do not assume bad faith over anything you disagree with.

While I disagree with the original statement, hostility never changed anyone’s mind.

Chronic abuse absolutely shapes human perception and behavior.

In this case, a lot of Lemmy has been so battered down by “China Bad” propaganda that they’ll straight up deny the threat of climate change to justify rejecting Chinese manufactured goods.

I’m not trying to change their mind. I’m trying to expose them.

What you’re doing is called “making shit up”. If you have a problem with their talking point then address it, but don’t make shit up about who they are or why they’re saying what they’re saying.

As in the way you’re accusing me of “making shit up,” just because you’re not aware of decades of lobbying and astroturfing efforts by the fossil fuel industry against nuclear?
