Meanwhile the “green” crowd bought right in to the whole “no GMO” bullshit which, like “organic food” is nothing but a marketing ploy designed to separate them from more of their money, and have set a field that could literally keep the world fed through this crisis, back significantly, if on reputation alone. All while sitting on their high horse and feeling like they are the ones saving the environment.
Just one more reason why education is so important (and why we deliberately get such a poor standard of it).
You’re just proving my point - Monsanto isn’t the problem, nor are they GMO, they are a single company, of many, that uses GMO technology.
The problem is capitalism, and by focusing on a tiny symptom of it and acting as if you’re saving the world, you’re not only completely missing the point, and playing right in to the hands of the capitalists who have profitable solutions to their manufactured problem to sell you, and a deep appreciation of the distraction you’re providing them, but you’re also contributing to the ignorance and fearmongering of a technology that could help solve world hunger.
But hey, I get it, it’s so much easier to shake your fist in the air (and at anyone who doesn’t buy in to anti-science nonsense) and shout about “monsatan”, than it is to address the actual issue.

Maybe. But also it could be people you know just don’t want to support that evil corporation Monsanto.
