Genetically Modified Food
13 years ago
Why the fuck are people against it?! With the droughts we are having, wouldn't you want a crop that can still produce food without as much water as other crops? I think the real issue is people believe in pseudo-science and think that such crops will poison us somehow and destroy humanity or whatnot. People will believe anything.

How would I make a gif of the frames from 0:12 to 0:14?

So basically, tentacle rape will become a legitimate threat in places other than Japan?

Because they prefer 100% all "beef" McDonald's hamburgers.

FFS do people not understand that all of the cross-breeding of animals and plants to encourage favorable traits over the last several thousand years is just a slower process of modifying the genetics? We've been changing and improving our foodstock since about the time we crawled out of a cave. We just have better tools to get the job done, now.

Yeah. People worry about that too much.

Well, if people don't take advantage of genetically modified crops, then their gonna have to one day deal with this shit, literally: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99l5iLOJgEk

That's exactly what my mom thinks. She also thinks microwaves are somehow inherently toxic *facehoof*

Yeah, I know someone that thinks eating food from the microwave will give you cancer. I was utterly amazed at such nonsense. How would technology used for cooking food that causes cancer be in common usage since the 80s? I can understand if it was less than ten years ago, but thirty? Not only that, but a microwave oven used for cooking food has been around in commercial usage since the 50s. If such a link were discovered then there would be no microwave ovens on the market. I guess logical reasoning just doesn't apply to most people.

NO, no it doesn't. Why do you think people can profit so much from Greenwashing, ORganic Foods and all-natural health supplements
