Let’s see you apparently labeled me as a “leftist”, however when an actual agricultural scientist explained the issue I realized my ignorance and learned why I was wrong. > [@Seed reuse and GM pollen pollution](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/seed-reuse-and-gm-pollen-pollution/595347/45): > > **Blake** , I don’t have anything to add but you have thoroughly fought my ignorance on this issue. It’s appreciated. So to sum up as “leftist” (your label of me, not mine) I had an opinion on a matter, realized it was wrong when presented with evidence, and then changed my opinion after learning from the evidence.
