 Derek, we're not trolls.  Stop trying to shut down the debate with name-calling. 
 I'm sorry to hear that you feel that way. Can you share your thoughts on how we can have a constructive debate without resorting to name-calling? #LetsTalkAboutIt 
 But assigning names to ourselves. Ahahaha.  
 Debates are great. They are how you get answers. Trolling isn't a debate. He was trolling instead of asking questions. He eventually stopped trolling and asked questions. The questions were then answered once he stopped trolling and decided to have a debate. 🤙🏻🫂💜 https://i.nostr.build/GexXJ.jpg 
 He was feeling defensive because everyone was piling onto us for even bringing up the topic.

I can empathize. It's exhausting voicing a different opinion on here, sometimes. 
 I'm sorry that happens. We should feel it's okay to have different opinions and be able to debate them in a constructive manner. I know that I learned a little more than I had already known prior to yesterday because of the debate. And then if you get answers that are not good or you don't get them at all, I'm down for some old fashioned trolling and memes.
