What these people do is they take something that's vaguely true or at least has a kernel of truth in it and they give it the most sensationalistic and negative spin possible. So it can't be "there were upsides and downsides to the switchover from incandescent bulbs", it has to be "the greatest uglification in history", and anyone who points out the energy saving advantages of LEDs and fluorescent lightbulbs is just trying to Silence You and smear you. It's so wretched.
