That's not been my experience. Lemmy has a ton of support to questions, just not ones being asked in bad faith.

People are great about answering in good faith, meant the downvotes on the question itself. I've noted before that that sort of thing backfires. "Well fuck me I guess these trans people and supporters are hateful as fuck." I know better, but this place has still left me feeling that.

I think my point still stands. In my experience, if the above question were to be asked in good faith, it wouldn't be downvoted very much at all.

I asked it in good faith, I was genuinely curious and got some really informative responses that were helpful and I upvoted. I still got dogpiled on downvotes, and even you are implying that I was acting in bad faith here which I think is what the person your responding to is talking about.
