What’s the american view of GMO’s in general?

2018-10-24 15:13:45 UTC  

At first I thought the unicorn man was acting out a funny joke but then when he said "Trump" I realized wait this is just a liberal.

CRYSTIAL SHIPS DOWN THE INSIDES?!

2018-10-24 15:25:04 UTC  

DAMN!!!!

2018-10-24 15:25:12 UTC  

When you get past the initial uninformed opinions, things get pretty grey and nuanced, like worrying about genetically modified invasive species crowding out local biomes and such

2018-10-24 15:25:13 UTC  

Gotta git me a liberal stick!

2018-10-24 15:26:16 UTC  

Ahhhh okay @Fitzydog

I mean, I don't think eating GMOs are a problem. Even lab grown meat.

But it's the processing that is a concern. Indestructible mega corn from coast to coast is not something I look forward to...

2018-10-24 16:11:54 UTC  

Well pretty much everything we eat today is gmo. They have been modified from previously inedible plants.

2018-10-24 16:14:00 UTC  

That's why I don't understand the fear of GMO's,

2018-10-24 16:14:34 UTC  

Sure mono cultures are dangerous. And having every plant in the world be resistant to everything will make bug life have a bad time. But there are probably solutions to those too.

2018-10-24 16:17:42 UTC  

The fear of GMO's is mainly fueled by scientific illiteracy and ignorance, and pushed by politicians that see easy votes in appearing as a moral crusader by standing in opposition to the evil Frankenstein veggies.

2018-10-24 16:18:49 UTC  

failing crops a few years blame the evil GMO not that you did reroute the main river to make a huge powerplant

2018-10-24 16:18:53 UTC  

And enviros

2018-10-24 16:19:14 UTC  

Yeah.

2018-10-24 16:19:16 UTC  

And hippy food purists

2018-10-24 16:19:39 UTC  

Yep, plenty of organisations and NGOs with a financial reason for opposing them

2018-10-24 16:19:59 UTC  

I just lovr when people are like, "i hate gmos" as they eat something made of wheat flower, potatoes, and chicken.

2018-10-24 16:20:03 UTC  

NGOs often very left-leaning, which is amazingly hypocritical when they also claim to support developing countries

2018-10-24 16:20:52 UTC  

The original untouched wheat and potato was inedible. The potato wss even poisonous.

2018-10-24 16:21:07 UTC  

GMO's are the solution to fix world hunger, and malnourishment.

2018-10-24 16:21:09 UTC  

the plant itself still is

2018-10-24 16:21:33 UTC  

Yep

2018-10-24 16:21:36 UTC  

the stem and leaves and such, that is

2018-10-24 16:21:59 UTC  

potato's will become poisonous if left in daylight over time

2018-10-24 16:22:23 UTC  

It wasnt a perfect change.

2018-10-24 16:22:48 UTC  

They just want the darkies to starve

2018-10-24 16:24:16 UTC  

well he is not that wrong

2018-10-24 16:41:37 UTC  

Dems are doing chalk writings again you know what that means

ORDER MOAR CHALK
