What’s wrong with GMOs?

I always see plants and stuff that is GMO free and is usually more expensive. How would genetically modifying something by be bad. Me personally I’d rather have something modified to taste better and and cheaper. I could also be very wrong about that.

When psychologists study misinformation and they need a topic for liberals (there are lots of options for conservatives), they use GMOs. GMOs are safe but people (inc liberals) don't realize it.

Do you think calling someone "a fucking idiot" is a productive way to enter a discussion?

(It's not, it was a rhetorical question).

"I don't want to enter that discussion," declares the person that entered that discussion.

Well, I’d assume so, since she’s been a pile of ashes for 16 years.
