Here’s the summarized version:
Be Polite.
Act as if you only understand ‘the effects’, have a nebulous notion of ‘the cause’.
Act like you know little other than this, and insist they explain it to you like you are a five year old.
Waste as much of their time as possible, without becoming hotheaded, instead become sad-confused.
“I’m not so much angry, as I am disappointed” type of vibe / energy.
And if possible, be genuinely kind to the low level, actual people you talk to, they literally do not make the rules.

They just wasted your time too with their strung out story. They’re in too deep!
