      Ok, I just don’t want to perpetuate myths around him or associate him with this nonsense.

        Completely understandable, I would never entertain these myths in front of non leftists, but it’s like ironically posting “you can only get one kind of haircut in North Korea”, taking western propaganda at face value is so absurd it becomes funny.

          Indeed, unfortunately I know there are some people among us who believe the anti-Lysenko bs. I was once one of them, and was swayed by a false allusion to him.
