It’s not unreasonable. Someone just straight up advocated for releasing a disease to sterilize all of the cattle in the world. This is an objectively crazy thing to say.
This doesn’t require careful reasoning or thoughtful consideration. I’m tired of people using rationalization to advocate for horrible evil things. “Being better” means calling out people that are insane, there are deleterious paths of thought that are destructive to society and we shouldn’t entertain them at all.
You’re not going to trick me with your “eloquence” and “intellect” and “calls for rationality”. I am being better, and speaking up when I see people talking crazy. Nobody speaking up is how we got into this mess.

"Objectively crazy" is doing a huge amount of lifting in that comment. As someone with a conservative leaving who believes there is an anti meat lobby attempting to brainwash your kids and your right to beef is inalienable, I would ask you strongly consider your position about the control humans have over agriculture and the Overton Window related to that control. We are already using gene editing in production to control our environment.
