Ok, so I have a number of FB friends who are of the hippie, new age, vegetarian sorts of variety. They post these links all the fucking time about GMO and Monsanto being some big corporate evil entity straight out of a dystopian sci fi future. It would seem we are slowly being poisoned by GMO foods or some shit and I should be very angry about this. Of course I'm too lazy to read these links and I never see anyone posting contradictory links to support GMO tech.
These are the same type of folks who believe in the healing power of crystals, reflexology, herbal medicine and all sorts of other bologna. So I'm obviously hesitant to accept this sensationalism at face value.
I figured that this being FoHRolled I could get some opinions that might actually have some scientific backing to them. Maybe some links to a good summary of both sides of the controversy. So what's the deal? What's being done to our, uh....corn and stuff (?) exactly that I should or shouldn't be worried about?
Of course there will probably also be some posters who are convinced that Monsanto is out to destroy the human race for power and profit, so flame away!
