Quotes from this video
Genetic engineering is part of a total control system over our food and our agriculture. At this point, not a single crop that has been brought from them has improved the situation of farmers or the nutritional situation of the people who are hungry…If these tendencies continue not only is it going to be a total wiping out of millions of farmers, and farming and agriculture is the livelihood of the majority of humanity even now, but the wiping out of farmers will also be the wiping out of our future food security. Five companies might for four years or five years grab control over our food and agriculture. But reckless experimentation with the planets biodiversity, with our food system, with agricultural production, with ignorance and irresponsibility ensures that our food situation, for all of humanity, is in peril.
The whole issue now of any more introduction of GMOs should be stopped immediately, because we have seen what has happened with the introduction of GMO canola and GMO soybeans…how it has destroyed the indigenous seeds and pure seeds. We no longer have any pure canola seeds or soybean seeds left in Canada. It is all now contaminated.
Monsanto always said with GMOs they would now be able to feed a hungry world… And, if you look back at Monsanto’s history, to me it’s been a history of deceit and of not telling the truth. When Monsanto and other companies said ‘PCBs were safe… DDT was safe…agent orange was safe, aspartame was safe’… and after a few years everyone found out the dangers of PCBs and DDT. And now we have the same company telling us that GMOs are safe.
The most important thing to understand about genetic engineering is that it is really an attempt to say hey listen no matter how unsustainable our technologies, we’re not gonna’ change the technology to fit the natural living systems - we’re gonna change the living systems so they fit the technology. We all know how horrible factory farming is and one of the problems they have with egg laying chickens, with hens, is that they have a mothering instinct - they want to brute. And here you see one of the brain experiments genetically engineering chickens to take out the mothering instinct.
This fish, if let loose through biological pollution in natural waters, will destroy the native fish. It’s very important to understand . One is this biological contamination is very different from chemical contamination. If you have an oil spill, it will dilute over time… This is not chemical pollution. This is living pollution…biological pollution. Once these fish are released into a bay or a river you can’t recall them… In the United States we have yet to have or first law - we don’t have a single law which regulates this kind of biological pollution. It is completely unregulated. Even though its effects will be catastrophic.

I’ve been trying to get discussion going with satire, fwiw.

GMO Food - The Greatest Threat in the History of Western Civilization
Jeff Smith’s book, Seeds of Deception, compiles 20 years of data on the health risks of genetically modified foods from scientists such as Arpad Pusztai and Trudy Netherwood who reported that feeding GMO food to laboratory animals resulted in thousands of sick, sterile and dead laboratory animals. The book also reports on allergic reactions and toxicity in humans from GMO foods.
While American consumers remain oblivious, GMO Foods have been introduced into the US food supply without safety testing or even labeling. Already 70% of our US food supply is GMO, affecting corn, soy, cotton seed oil and canola oil.
The following countries have banned GMO Food: Algeria, Egypt, Sri Lanka, Thailand, China, Japan, Phillipines, The European Union, Norway, Austria, Germany United Kingdom, Spain, Italy, Greece, France, Luxembourg, Portugal, Brazil, Paraguay, Saudi Arabia, American Samoa, Cook Islands, Fiji, Kiribati, Federated States of Micronesia, Marshall Islands, Nauru, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu, Vanuatu, Australia, New Zealand.
The British Medical Association has asked for a moratorium on GMO foods.
