I am not involved with Monsanto or the organizations you mentioned. From my position it looks like both sides take their contributions very seriously. One wants to safe humanity. The other tries to preserve earth and everyone else on it. Judgment should be left to future generations. Even then it might not accurately reflect our actions today. Such is life.
What we all can do today is respect our opponents. Their values do not align with ours. That does not make them evil. Let’s call them misguided.
- hodwik2 10y agoThe problem is, for organizations like Greenpeace, they require that their supporters think the opponent is evil. When you can't engage your opponent on the facts, engage them on an emotional level, and accuse them of moral decrepitude -- then you'll never need to respond to their stances. This is a common tactic on the far left and far right: "You can't just ban all abortions, what about rape?" "Baby killer!" "Clearly some abortions are unconstitutional, like once the baby is viable." "Misogynist!" "You can't just have completely open borders, it would bankrupt the safety net." "Racist!" "You can't just close the borders, lots of industries rely on immigrant labor." "Shill!"
