    I agree with the concept of GMOs but as long as evil fuckers like Monsanto are controlling them I think it's perfectly reasonable b to be wary.

      Sure but that goes for so many other things that calling out GMOs specifically just adds to the fear mongering around them.

      Monsanto is bad for a ton of reasons but the GM crops they produce are good and useful and that’s why farmers use them. They increase yields and decrease pesticide use, which farmers like because more money and less labor but also we like because less pesticide use is good and also less CO2 emissions.
