Idiots can be on the left too.
Biden supporters aren’t really left wing though. The left is barely a thing in the US.
Does Biden even have supporters? Or just Trump haters? Who is actually enthusiastic for a second Biden term, rather than a not-Trump term?
Im kinda excited about his cabinet continuing but yeah. Biden could be replaced by one of those novelty singing fish and id be somewhat neutral to it still.
Define le left™
Of course. GMOs and nuclear power
Some of us aren't against GMOs for being genetically modified, we're against patents on food.
Some of us also are against massive overuse of glyphosate.
If I could fucking ban pesticides and antibiotics for agricultural use I absolutely would.
You'd probably kill millions of people unless you gradually overhauled the farming industry
I'm also against patents on food but this is a bad argument. GMOs are artificial and can reasonably be patented under the same rules as any other technology.
Patents in general must be abolished.
"I don't understand nuclear power, therefore it is bad"
Also they had sex symbol Jane Fonda.
What is with the anti-reason luddites and being so good at getting porn stars on their side? Jenny McCarthy is another as well as PETAs small cohort of nude exhibitionist girls.
Maybe the next pandemic WHO should hire a few to do a "vaccines are sexy" promotion. Is that it? The only way to convince people to not die a preventable death is have someone with big tits give them the answer?
GMOs come from the same company that created Agent Orange.
Which ones? There are lots of GMOs out there and they don't all come from the same company
This guy here asking for facts from the anti-GMO position. Such high hopes for the human race! I remember being young and optimistic.
All of the ones meant to have pesticides poured on them.
You mean none of them?
Hey, buddy what happened to your original comment? Since you clearly respect the truth so very much why don't you tell the world what you said to me before? I thought it was quite insightful and a good representation of the anti-GMO position. In fact your comments about my intelligence were perhaps the single best, nay the best, arguments against GMOs I have ever seen.
..so you want me to make the same comment again so it's immediately removed?
No I want you to admit that your entire argument was a personal attack instead of facts, just like your movement.
I'm not admitting to something that I never said. 5th comment of diversion.
So you are claiming that you never insulted me, yes or no?
Oh I insulted you.
8th comment.
Yeps. Repeat what you said
https://lemmy.world/modlog/1347
Anyone can view the comment there.
10th refusal.
The comment where you called me a moron? Is that the comment you are referring to?
13th refusal, I stand by my original comment.
Why won't you repeat it?
