>>10191670-Sterile seeds, anothe rmechanism of vertical control
-Upregulated endotoxin production, excuse to spray more and more herbicides all over it, and therefore a downregulation of nutrients and beneficial compounds made in response to fungal and bacterial presence.
-Hey let's alter the shikimate pathway. Huh, why is my crop nutrient devoid?
-Eg glyphosate is incorporated into the plant at all levels, as it mimics glycine and cells will use it as such. It cannot be washed off.
-Vast capacity for abuse, eg epicyte.
GMO is the braindead brute force version of farming. Control everything because you can, never realizing to get equivalent outcomes you actually have to control very little. Are there possibilities for genetic improvements to crops, which won't be utterly terrible? Yes. Are they possible now? Clearly not. There is no incentive and no functioning infrastructure for proper safety testing.
If you eat GMO you're an idiot, and you will be punished as such. Issue is you'll misattribute the cause of the issues you're sure to develop and you'll litter /sci/ and your mind with "why haven't they found the gene / immunotherapy / etc for my issue yet?" Even though no one had such issue 50 years ago, suddenly it's all in the genes, and there's big money in paying hoards of researchers to chase genes around for 15 years. Make money by not losing money (keep cat in bag), make money with potential payoffs when you find treatments to solve problems people are giving themselves with bad food.
Eventually all of us will be forced to eat GMO when they find some way to legally dominate the food supply.
