“The activist said that those who banned DDT “were not evil, just wrong” -— since those who made DDT illegal really thought DDT was a health risk, to humans (it is NOT) and they really thought DDT was a threat to the environment (it is not).”
Okay, so they were duped by evil, and doing evil.
What part of that excuses them?
As stated, I do not like the title either -— it simply makes more sense to me now, in perspective.
