Don't reply with a straw man or don't reply at all. -- Unfortunately, that's not how the dialogue went for vaccines or is going for GMOs. It starts immediately at, "oh, this is dangerous!" and then the next several lines are spent fruitlessly trying to counter that view with science. I do believe that most people are pretty stupid and pretty easily led, but that's not to say they shouldn't be given the information they need to change -- but it shouldn't be mandatory and politically-motivated and a major detractor from profits. Incidentally, are you actually for the labeling of every genetically modified food? Because that's, you know, most of them.
