Is this part of the conspiracy against us dieselheads?

I was flipping through the channels on a sunday morning around a month ago. For lack of anything better on I watched Thomas the tank engine and friends.

There's an engine on there named ''diesel''. He's mean to all the other tank engines, and evreyone else. In one of the movies, he was actually accused of trying to kill one of the other engines.

Right afterwards there was something on about alternative energy sources and how much pollution our beloved diesels spew.

Why is the mean ugly tank engine named "diesel"? One of my patients tonight told me that her grandson is scared of diesel because he's so mean. That kid is going to hate diesels for the rest of his life now
