The first attack on Rachel Carson are, calling her hysterical, unqualified and her sayings as junk science.
This point is misguided because, even though it seemed hysterical and against what was probably said and mainly known about pesticides, ignorance was at hand in here.
Secondly, the old attack on Carson, saying that we (Americans) followed what she said for us to do (research pesticides [probably implying to stop using them]), insects and disease would take over mankind, like in the Stone Age or of something of that magnitude.
