    There’s rarely any using trying to respond with logic to a comment filled with insults…

    I explicitly blamed the people who set it up, and that account went off about how I’m blaming Biden.

    Logic didn’t get them to their current opinion, and logic won’t help them understand their misunderstanding, they’ll just keep throwing insults and not understanding.

    I just report and block those accounts, makes Lemmy a lot more civil when you don’t see the worst

      Biden had us pay the illegally charged interest rather than fight it.

      I guess someone else wrote his name in there.

      Charging borrowers interest is not illegal. Denying participation in government programs over trivial errors is not illegal. Declining to earnestly help people who are eligible rectify their deficient applications is not illegal. Picking a fight you are going to lose on the merits is not smart. Especially when it detracts time and effort away from the much more immediate and necessary goal of helping the large number of people who are still paying.
