Finally, we really need to stop giving a shit what random anti-science conspiracy nuts think.

I think for many people, myself at least, the issue is not anything health-related. It’s just one word: Monsanto.

GMOs are cool, but being unable to gather the seeds from the crops and use them next year really isn’t.



EU STOP TRYING TO APPEASE THE SHIT-MAC’s


great, these patents will introduce lawsuits like in the US, no matter the provisions included about naturally occurring changes. Farmers whose crops cross-pollinate with patented crop varieties will get sued anyway and bayer’s horde of lawyers will intimidate and financially drain anyone opposing their patented seeds.
