The motivation behind this shit is almost purely irrational fear of esoteric science. That's what this is about. It's hilarious to me that such a large group of people would raise such a fuss about some genetically modified food potentially causing harm.

Meanwhile, more than 50% of them are overweight, and a similar proportion scarfs down potato chips, cheeseburgers, and copious amounts of sugar on a daily basis... thoroughly destroying the health of their bodies.

Oh shit! What if this genetically altered food might give me cancer? I don't know if it does or not, so it clearly does! Nom nom nom nom... mmmm bacon

You obviously know nothing on the subject. Why don't you read up and come back when you have some facts

You should educated Ephirith with some green and orange dots or an article about rats w/ no baseline tests conducted. Then will he will understand the way of the ManBearPig like the rest of us. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

If you genetically engineer bacon to taste even bacon-ier I don't give a shit it's delicious.

From my more than basic understanding of the topic, there's two general ways GMO crops work.


1. They splice the genes so that when bugs eat it, they die.
2. They splice the genes so the plants can survive more pesticides, so the bugs die.

Either way the bugs die. And what's bad for bugs is bad for you country bumpkins.

Its a CONSPIRACY.

WAKE UP people.

Everyone is a bunch of SHEEP.

Big science is scheming with the CORPORATIONS to poison us for profit.

I'm a fat fuck who can't jog for one mile, but genetic engineering is UNHEALTHY-- the internet said so!

your right, I'm fat and unhealthy, so what.
Does that mean I shouldn't be concerned with what the children are eating?
With what is happening to independent farmers?
etc....
the list goes on and on,

but your right, I can't do 10 pull ups so I guess my opinion doesn't count
