I’m an advocate for nuclear energy, but I acknowledge that there are some strong downsides. Per my analysis, those downsides are worth it, compared to the alternative (millions of death from coal pollution, climate change, etc.), but it’s not the same as people who have a completely wrong belief about things like vaccines, climate change, or chemotherapy. Of course, in some cases even chemotherapy isn’t worth it, such as very old people who would rather not suffer the pain and would rather dir quickly.
Also, GMOs are probably not spoken against for the reasons you think. Most anti-GMO advocates (that I know) are advocating against them because of the dangerous business model of companies like Monsanto that sue farmers because GMO seeds blow into the farmers’ fields, not because of mistaken beliefs about the health risk.
