Okay, in place of "has the insidious effect that this woman is describing," I should have said "has an insidious effect that is akin to what this woman is describing." Basically, I agree that she's fear-mongering, but to call her loony because she's exaggerating is the same thing as dismissing her entire argument... and I happen to think there's a valid point in there somewhere. It's just too bad she chose to frame it this way because anybody who wants to advocate for what I think is the valid part of her argument is going to receive the same kind of dismissive response thanks to her.
