Understanding GMOs w/Tp4

GMO plants grow up big and strong.
Resistant to Roundup (pesticide they like to spray). That's the primary purpose of the current largest yield GMOs on the market.
More people are fed, less people go hungry.
That's a lie, it's about yields and profits.
The problem with the current technique is that it's a Splatter gun.
When the Geneticist (Mr.rabbit) wants to sell you GMO corn.. He says, he took the gene for x and put it into corn.
The consumer thinks, oh ok, you took this
one little gene
and put it in along with the rest of the genes that was native to corn..
THAT IS NOT how it works.
It's not a guy with a tweezer
The current technique is the same as painting on canvas with water balloons.
It is NOT a precision process..
The end result isn't necessarily always bad, HOWEVER, the alarm is simply that it's, UNPREDICTABLE..
You copy a segment of java code, yea , it probably just gives you a better looking text box, but the side effect MAY BE, that it generates too many indents which breaks your binary output, and the database goes WTF is this, I can't read it.
So, What is THE DANGER..
THE DANGER is no one knows exactly what happens, not the consumer, not the producer, not the geneticist, not the government..
That said, it remains every consumer's choice to be partial to this experiment.
But if you're Wealthy, a little extra $ on non-gmo is a good call..
OK, Tp, so how do we avoid eating GMO..
Unfortunately YOU CAN'T ..
All commercial chicken/beef/pork are fed GMO feeds..
All processed foods / convenience foods use GMO derivatives..
In laboratory settings, it's been well verified that these animals are very sick from eating the modified feeds, from increased behavior aggression to gastrointestinal disorders/organ damage..
You can Try and become a vegan.. 100% plant based, no processed foods ..
Most grocery store fresh produce are currently -Non GMO-.
It's recommended , but highly impractical outside of crazy people.
