I am trying to say that non-farmers need to see from the farmer's viewpoint and you respond with this? We should just give up trying to communicate altogether? Consumers should have nothing to say about how food is produced? I don't think that's how free markets work. I have been trying to promote mutual understanding and respect, and you say: no point, farmers think consumers are idiots.
