Homeopathic GMOs limit pesticide use to infinitesimal levels.

[HuckleB]

Wait. What? Yeah, that's the point.

Of course, GMOs do limit pesticide use.

Homeopathy, on the other hand, only spreads disease.

Thus, the purveyors of homeopathy who also bash GMOs have a lot of explaining to do.

1. curiously, after cutting out gmo's and pesticides, my intestinal issues are almost gone

Unfortunately, the damage over the years has resulted in an auto immune disease that's killing my thyroid.

But feel free to eat that stuff yourself.

2. You keep pretending.

You are only going to harm others for no good reason, but who cares about that?

There is no connection to your health issues and GMOs. If pesticides did something, you might want to remember that pesticides are used in all forms of farming, including organic. Of course, unless you were working on an unregulated farm, they aren't the cause either. Promoting woo is not ok. As noted, it only serves to hurt others.

Right?

3. pretending, like lumping homeopathy in with gmos?

Or that less pesticides are being used?

4. You really reposted that debunked routine?

Come on. I know you know that's been debunked. Benbrook is a shill for Big Organic.

Sheesh.

BTW, why are the loudest anti-GMO posters also the loudest supporters of homeopathy?

[Viva_La_Revolution]

5. i never said i support homeopathy. you are the one trying to lump them together

Show me a link that debunks mine please, and also try to explain how there is not really high levels of glyphosate and bt in gmos.

[HuckleB]

6. I never said you did. I pointed out the fact that many others do.

I'm just the messenger there.

You've certainly seen the Benbrook nonsense debunked before, so it really is disingenuous to post it and ask that it be debunked again. That's not ok.

And, finally, the reality is that Benbrook is looked upon much better than Seralini.

14. Quite the bemusing allegation.

"I'm just the messenger there..."

Quite the bemusing allegation. We all like to pretend we're simply a prophet of the truth when it suits our biases. We'll also rationalize it as being 'just the messenger...'

[HuckleB]

15. Cool pointless post.

And.. Thanks for the kick.

BTW ... Are you going to pretend that posters who adamantly defended homeopathy on recent posts are not some of the most vociferous anti-GMO posters at DU, as well?

Yeah, whoops.

[Major Nikon]

18. Homeoquacks and anti-gmo go together like drunk and disorderly

I'm not sure who would dispute this.

[HuckleB]

7. And it's interesting how many of the big anti-GMO outfits promote other pseudoscientific nonsense.

And your friend Jeffrey Smith appears to have been interviewed by multiple homeopathy organizations.

Hmm.

And, on edit, it appears that you are fine supporting woo, including "providers" that sell homeopathy, too.

Well, there it is.

[Major Nikon]

17. Jeffery Smith :)

Not sure why anyone would repeat that moron other than for the comedic value.

8. And silence.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

9. sorry for having a life to attend too. I'll get back to you after i deal with important things

[HuckleB]

10. Meanwhile, you were posting elsewhere at DU.

Is honesty really that hard?

[Viva_La_Revolution]

12. yep. on a short break from chores. won't have enough time till tonight for a proper response

So you'll just have to keep multiple replying to this thread all by yourself for a while longer

[HuckleB]

13. Cute.

When will you acknowledge reality? That's not hard to do.

[HuckleB]

11. How long will you wait to pull out Benbrook again?

[Major Nikon]

16. It would be a pretty good trick to cut out pesticides

Pretty much impossible from a practical standpoint.
