But this thing about Trump and Climate Change really got me... I will try to illustrate my frustration with an analogy:
Imagine that the SGU is a RPG Party. They are an awesome group with very diversified skills, and they are very good in what they do. Let's say, in the Kingdom, they are well known to be the best woo hunters in the world. They have years of experience fighting monsters of logical fallacy, exposing people who commit fraud, witch doctors who dont cure people and steal their gold, etc... Of all the groups that you are aware of, they are by far, the best.
And then, one day, this world is shaken by the fact that a troll became king.... and this troll is the distillation of everything they always fought against. One day, this troll did something that sparkled the rage of the entire world, where people from all the regions protested against his lies and actions... So, one day the SGU party encounter this troll face to face. A big orange troll, squeezing a blue bird on his hand, wreaking havoc and disturbing peace. Given the history of this group, it would be reasonable to assume that they would fight. At this moment, you imagine an epic confrontation. Cara could be the Spellcaster, Jay the Archer, Bob the Berserker, Evan the Rogue.... and Steve the Paladin. You imagine how they would fiercely attack this troll, displaying all the skills you saw them using in all the other encounters... and after everyone had beaten the shit out of the creature, you imagine the muscular shirtless Steve jumps high into the air in slow motion, brandishing the all mighty fucking sword of Occam and descending in the direction of the trolls throat, killing it, to the satisfaction of the whole crowd watching.
Now, contrast that version with the following: The SGU party encounters the troll. Steve looks at it and say to the group: "We must be skeptical of that troll." And then, this ultra high level group leaves the area and decide to engage on an low level side-quest. Wouldn't that be disappointing?
