Comparing people being fooled by propaganda to "Blood libel" is atrocious and just as stupid, hollow, and heartless as the american conservatives who said not being able to get a haircut during the pandemic was comparable to the holocaust.

Get a fucking break man. You can educate people that GMOs aren't on their own a danger and that there is a lot of misinformation about these things without being a miserable asshole.

It's two groups of people fooled into demonization for political purposes. And in each case, there is significant harm as a result. I will grant the Holocaust was likely a larger harm, but don't dismiss the harm caused by GMO negativity (which is inextricably bound to Monsanto demonization). Golden Rice blockage alone is arguably an act of genocide.
