Corona virus, China major city lockdowns, etc.

I know I did...you are backpedaling.

Let's use a contrived example. Let's say someone tells you the sky is red. You could respond:-
"Are you blind or are you just a braindead idiot?"

or you could respond with:-
"Why stop there? The sea is green and trees are black. Making up stuff sure is fun!"

The first response directly attacks the person which I think it is acceptable to moderate. The second response uses sarcasm to make a mockery of the idea of the sky being red. It does not focus upon person who put the idea forth.
