Well, and when I would be there, I had spent hours upon hours studying this, learning this, trying things out. And a person that had really strong feelings about Monsanto, they had those strong feelings because they watched a documentary and maybe they read a book. And they, the reason they feel so strongly is the exact same thing that makes them think I am the devil himself in front of them.

So when they take that microphone, they're going like this, they're shaking, you know, like they're, And so if somebody, if the devil doesn't treat you, you know, like, rah, I'm going to get you. And is like, no, go ahead. And I think what you're trying to say is this. And is this your complaint? And you open up their argument and you make it better.

Suddenly they're like, all right, now I'm more open to whatever it is that you had to say.

No, I mean, so... Was it Food Inc.? So what happened, in my opinion, is that GMOs came on the market and nobody really knew very much about them. And Monsanto and the other ag companies said, we're not selling these to consumers. Why would we go talk about it? We're just selling them to producers. And when that happened, there were certain businesses that became threatened by that, right?

If you are, for example, using now chemistry to be able to knock out all that weed pressure, well, now you don't need to drive a giant stake into the ground and rip your ground open, which means you're not burning as much fuel. You don't need as big of a tractor. And so one system, that chemical system, started winning.

The other side, whatever that other side is, decided like, you know, no, we don't like that very much. This is really hurting us. So they started donating to groups that I think were closer aligned to the Joker, like that they didn't fully understand that once you fund these groups, they're going to do things that you couldn't possibly understand to agriculture.

And so the anti-GMO movement built up. But once that money went away, once the activists, for example, found out that they couldn't make money off of fighting GMOs anymore because the non-GMO label had become ubiquitous, they moved to going to glyphosate. And now do you hear anybody being worried about GMOs? Virtually none, right? It's because those people didn't tell people what to think.
