I’ve got to ask, who the fuck cares? How is this even news?

A simple answer is rarely a true one. This has about as much thought put into it as the “Live, Laugh, Love” bullshit boomers share on FB

Your body literally produces cyanide all the time, it’s just really good at metabolizing it quickly before it builds up to a harmful concentration… so yeah, great example.

Can we stop spreading this bullshit anti-glyphosate propaganda? educate yourselves

You wanna know what else has been linked to cancer, and with actual good evidence for it? Hot water. source

Go touch grass and worry about the things you should really worry about, like the fact your food system is set up for collapse with 2 decades and you’d better hope big Ag comes up with something brilliant cuz otherwise you’re in the shit unless you’re at least partially self-sufficient.

Right after you drink a pint of long-trusted household products, like lye or ammonia

I’m not a liar, you just have a very simplistic view of things.

They knew glyphosate (aka RoundUp) causes cancer and did not disclose it. This likely led to some severe exposure cases and thus they had to pay out (although I strongly believe prison sentences should also have been part of it). This is just as terrible as if I sad sold you lye and never told you it is corrosive, thus endangering you.

None of this means you cannot use lye for making pretzels/ uncloging your sink. For those uses it is safe. Same for Glyphosate.

I’d clarify I’m not Bayer fanboy - genetic modification for the sale of a herbicide is a poor use of modern genetic technology. But I cannot deny the measurable climate benefits of using it (in terms of CO2 emissions and soil degradation) source

Do you wanna present an actual argument or just whine because reality doesn’t suit you?

A. I’m not a farmer, I’m a scientist. B. All herbicides are pesticides… look it up. It’s like how all horses are mammals but not all mammals are horses

Ok so no real argument, just whining. Lucky you, having been told to believe all the right stuff while others were told wrong.
