      Not to be pedantic, but an impressive pharmaceutical industry is not the same as leading cancer research. Still impressive. Not the same. Again, I get your point, but no need to exaggerate realities.

        That’s both true and pedantic, but beside the point.

            Should we be nice to people who are lying?

            Edit: Downvotes. So, it’s okay ✅ if I lie now. Good to know. You should be very concerned that there are bad actors here, who advocate for lying.
