@madeindex @melroy The problem is that many different GM techniques are described as “GMO”, but they are not equal. Some techiques are quite risky and some are about as safe as simple cross-breeding that happens in nature. Europe invests in GMO research (there is a misconception that Europe has banned GMO when really it’s just some regions). So I would not fear GMO as a whole w.r.t safety. But all GMO’d US-sourced food involves Monsanto. Boycotting US-based GMO is a way to boycott Monsanto. 6 comments
 #Bayer #Monsanto is definitely among the worst corporations! They are bullying #farmers around the world, even in the US 👹 There are many alternative solutions to GMO for the #food issues: @madeindex @hyakinthos hi, how would vegetarianism / veganism help? @PrPl  @madeindex @PrPl @hyakinthos Just be sure when you are on a strict vegetarian / vegan diet be very sure to get the right amount of: Vitamin B12, Iron, Omega-3 fatty acids, protein, calcium and vitamin D and Zinc. |

@madeindex It sounds convincing that the world population would need GMO to get the scale needed.
The problem with Monsanto is they are trying to take control of the world’s food supply. They want to monopolize so the that whole world needs Monsanto for survival. I’m not sure on the details of Monsanto’s bullying but I heard many Indian farmers committed suicide over it.
