Nobody would drink a glass of offered liquid from somebody who is clearly acting antagonistically towards them. Beyond that, there's clearly a difference between something being appealing and safe to drink. The way anti-GMO people tout this as a slam dunk is just intellectual laziness.

> "anti-GMO people" There it is. The implication that anyone who isn't unquestionably pro GMOs, is against them, no matter the modification or the company pushing it. I mean, what kind of an anti-science rube uses "intellectually lazy" arguments, such as "asking a guy who said Roundup is safe to drink to actually drink some". This, from the guy who conflates RoundUp with it's active ingredient glyphosate. Scientific evidence showing RoundUp is significantly more toxic - https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-17537-w- https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-17537-w- Hmm, that study was easy to find ... This, on an article which explicitly calls out how little we know of glyphosate's effect on the nervous system. This, on an article which notes the terrifying fact that 80% of US urine samples, children included, contain glyphosate. RoundUp is nasty shit. And I'm not anti-science for being worried about glyphosate in my piss.
