    You’re either an astroturfer or useful idiot spreading oil lobby talking points.

    Either you believe the climate science or you don’t. If you do, you know that we don’t have time for industry protectionism.

      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.
