Did you know that most things have GMOs?

2019-04-13 05:54:19 UTC  

in a negative way.

2019-04-13 05:54:23 UTC  

Rather shocking but it is true

2019-04-13 05:54:24 UTC  

yeah

2019-04-13 05:54:32 UTC  

Everything has it's risks, right?

2019-04-13 05:54:37 UTC  

yeah

2019-04-13 05:54:47 UTC  

plus GMO/starving

2019-04-13 05:54:51 UTC  

kinda obvious

2019-04-13 05:54:53 UTC  

Almost everything is GMO already.

2019-04-13 05:54:56 UTC  

yeah

2019-04-13 05:54:59 UTC  

The average dog is a GMO, lmao

2019-04-13 05:55:00 UTC  

You still have to look at the bigger picture

2019-04-13 05:55:12 UTC  

?>

2019-04-13 05:55:13 UTC  

the issue with long-term use, and use that we don't understand could lead to world-wide epidemics.

2019-04-13 05:55:15 UTC  

Potentially.

2019-04-13 05:55:24 UTC  

GMO'S?

2019-04-13 05:55:40 UTC  

Crops in general. GMO or not, diseases can run rampant.

2019-04-13 05:55:50 UTC  

hold on

2019-04-13 05:56:06 UTC  

Begs the question, if we don't understand it 100%.... then you don't know if what you're doing is beneficial 100% or not.

2019-04-13 05:56:19 UTC  

It has pros and cons

2019-04-13 05:56:47 UTC  

Plus the fact it is like a virus, that is over-rides local crops as well. Whether people consent or not through pollination.

2019-04-13 05:56:50 UTC  

Genetic engineers must first choose what gene they wish to insert, modify or delete. The gene must then be isolated and incorporated, along with other genetic elements, into a suitable vector. This vector is then used to insert the gene into the host organism, creating the GMO.

2019-04-13 05:57:01 UTC  

Begs the question of does it violate someone's rights?

2019-04-13 05:57:14 UTC  

That's like me walking by your farm and throwing my seeds on your field essentially.

2019-04-13 05:57:24 UTC  

Is that just?

2019-04-13 05:57:36 UTC  

Early targeting systems relied on meganucleases and zinc finger nucleases. Since 2009 more accurate and easier systems to implement have been developed. Transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs) and the Cas9-guideRNA system (adapted from CRISPR) are the two most commonly used. They may potentially be useful in gene therapy and other procedures that require accurate or high through put targeting.

2019-04-13 05:57:39 UTC  

thats better

2019-04-13 05:57:40 UTC  

You don't know 100% what is in that see, or what it will do to your crop.

2019-04-13 05:57:54 UTC  

well

2019-04-13 05:57:57 UTC  

you kind of do

2019-04-13 05:58:03 UTC  

Kind of

2019-04-13 05:58:04 UTC  

if you know how to read genetics

2019-04-13 05:58:10 UTC  

No

2019-04-13 05:58:13 UTC  

and experiment long enough

2019-04-13 05:58:14 UTC  

You obviously don't know genetics then

2019-04-13 05:58:18 UTC  

what?

2019-04-13 05:58:29 UTC  

I can link you a ted talk if you're interested

2019-04-13 05:58:31 UTC  

genetics is a code we cant read yet

2019-04-13 05:58:36 UTC  

Genetics isn't simple ABC.

2019-04-13 05:58:41 UTC  

yes it isnt

2019-04-13 05:58:41 UTC  

It is a code we can read, but....
