it's more so emotionally based because it's personified and I feel bad for poor Pluto ๐Ÿ˜ข, not actually thinking that Pluto should in all scientific circumstances be considered a planet.

It's a lot different to vaccine deniers who don't trust meaningful science and evidence that actually effect the lives of people and can do real harm to the lives of others.

Well as a planet pluto was mini mini. As a dwarf planet Pluto is one of the mightiest.

Also, if you call Pluto a planet then it's not fair to Eris and they've done nothing wrong
