That is not the saddest thing. The saddest thing is how political correctness and destroy society
Beware of the Lysenko effect.
Who is Trofim Lysenko? He was a Russian scientist under Stalin that came up with a grand idea that the West did not know how to grow crops due to the corruption of capitalism, so he came up with a new way to grow crops, only, his theories were all wrong.

Stalin loved the propaganda as he boasted Russian agriculture theory superior to the corrupt West as he implemented it all over his empire.
Unfortunately, it led to the deaths of hundreds of millions as they starved to death.
It took the government about 50 years to even minutely acknowledge they murdered all those people because of their PC BS.
It is happening today. Just look at how the UN has declared about a billion people will die of starvation next year, and at the same time, upholding the notion farmers need to stop growing as many crops because their fertilizer emits carbon. Famers are protesting all over the world for being limited on how much food they can produce, but to no avail.
PC rules.
Road-clogging, manure-dumping farmers reveal the paradox at the heart of EU agriculture.
