+bjam89 I never said science was bad. It is when people who put their own common sense below the words of paid authorities with credentials that is bad- especially when those authorities are funded by corporations who benefit financially from the product they are demanding the scientists' approval for- regardless of whether it is ethical, and worth the money or not. And the education system grinds that unconditionally obedient mindset into us. It is factually veritable that corporations are huge sponsors of our education system. Why do you think people all about money want the education system to continue? Because it gives that mindset to the future generation, making them much easier to handle- more tolerant of abuse, unfair wages, and being overworked. They fund schools to adopt their recommended practices under all kinds of slogans.You take one look at an a high-school student who is often pressured to take over 2 AP classes, and you've got a person with little to no time to balance their life.Productivity and work achievement are placed higher in value than family, morals, and truly creative thinking. Of course- schools will never admit this- even though collegeboard's CEO made over $1 million in 2009 alone, and 18 other members got a salary above $300,000 in the same year. They are professionals at lip service. It's the same exact thing America did to garner support for WWI! You'll be famous! You'll be successful! You'll be adored! You'll be a hero! You'll be awesome! None of those WWI propaganda posters said a thing about athlete's foot, shell shock, deafness, blown-off limbs, gnawing hunger, maddening sleep deprivation, or anything of the sort. My point? Actions speak louder than words- and it's no different here- You know what my principal once told me in school, when I tried to get out of APUSH, a class that sucked the life out of me only to get a B, where more than half the students in that class got an F? "Your first priority in life should be college."I told him, "No, it isn't.""Yes, it is.""No- a fulfilling life is my first priority""You need to go to college.""I don't need AP US History. I'm confident in my capabilities of getting into college without it- this isn't for me."My teachers would pressure me to get into AP classes every dang year. My sanity didn't fit into the equation, somehow. Whenever I asked, if there were non-AP alternatives to a course for next year, I would be asked, in a rather arrogant way, "Do you want to go to college?" I am amazed that I never screamed "THAT'S NOT WHAT I'M ASKING!" AP courses were supposed to be college level. I was asking for a "Normal" (Apparently inferior), high school class.Oh, sure. They have remarkable lip service in schools. They talk about it with kids who aren't even in first grade. "This is just the beginning to a wonderful opportunity." "College is great if you want to get a job that doesn't involve transporting garbage for little to no pay." But in the end, you see the teachers- and they are not happy. No sir- they mostly are sleep-deprived, overworked, sadly either brainwashed or spirit-broken pawns of the system. They struggle just to have time for their family and themselves- if at all. They are by no means qualified to talk of opportunity and fulfillment when they are sick, miserable, sleep deprived, grading 160 unique kids' research papers, tests, quizzes, homework- it never ends. And, since they were always taught that this is "how things are- and should be", they don't fight- because they'll lose their jobs if they do.I remember getting a massive envelope of various advertisements, catalogs, and order forms that were passed out to the senior students in a meeting- mostly to tell the seniors about the "mandatory" "graduation-information cost ($75), and to say that graduation is such an important part of your life- you really will regret not going to it- supposedly it being "One of the biggest moments of your life". And then, the speaker (Who was undoubtedly paid), gave us all this huge, sob-story about a student's mother who called him, saying that she was unaware of the deadline, and did not pay in time for reservations at the graduation- how she begged, "Please, sir. Do you need an extra fee? I'll do anything, just please let my baby graduate." "Sorry, its too late. The arrangements and orders are already made."I should tell you this, first: The catalog was full of "School-spirit" accessories and clothing articles that never cost below $10 and frequently scaled up to $35. There were at least 40 different items to buy, plus a $110 "High school memories graduation ring" that would likely be made with your senior picture, a plastic bead in school colors, and maybe some other cheap little trinkets. Second of all, they never mentioned that you could nix the ridiculously overpriced ceremony and just claim your diploma and walk out of school $250 richer than you would be for buying all their extras. Third of all: They offered no rental graduation uniforms. And they changed their uniform design every year, and required students attending graduation to wear them. In short, you had to pay to do anything at all in this ceremony. I had to look up state laws to see if it was legal for them to withhold my diploma if I didn't pay the "necessary" graduation information fee- which I found- after much searching- that it wasn't mandatory.Does that not have the foul stench of corporate greed in it? Do you not smell a rat in that? In the end- I know what I see. And just about every single board of respected scientists in this country are sponsored by corporations, one way or another.Not that I expect you'll actually take my word for it. You can go on about how I have "No proof", even if it isn't necessary to draw a good conclusion about my situation. My point is: People are losing their voices, and what's scary is that they hardly know it- if at all.
+DAPTXDC4869 and let me guess you wont go to doctors to treat your paranoia due to corporations too, but oh no guess who made your internet device, your browser, heck even youtube
My two cents, here: When did scientists rule the nation? Should we be unallowed to vote because we lack the "necessary qualifications" to make good decisions? When did paid scientists rule the people in replacement of common sense? You people who think you need a scientific citation for everything are blind idiots that bought into the corporate-captured education system. The corporations sell their material to children, why? Is it because they have some grand, noble cause?I doubt John D. Rockefeller was kidding when he said that he would pay more for the ability to work with people than anything else. He wanted obedient, docile employees. Funny, he also sponsored our current education model! Whistles Good job, Rockefeller! You've succeeded at just that! Enjoy your legacy.
@zash you are correct that natural selection can happen in nature. I believe in natural selection, however I also believe in technology. I am not a farmer but I can still have an opinion I work in stem based disciplines,
+Ambersway1 Technically then no foods are natural, look at what in the wild apples and bananas look like. Through generations of farming (10,000 years) we have evolved foods that people like to eat and are of higher nutrituional value or convenient. The internet is not a natural thing, cars are not either. Man has been playing an active role in what food looks like, granted there are some benefits to organic farming, one being is that the meat produced through natural methods is much tastier and tender. The vegetables and bananas well the jury is out on that one. Most people would probably not be able to discern one from the other as long as they were not aware of which was which.

+Za1SH let me just ask you this, why do you trust some scientists say the ones that has made your pc, or your internet or your t or history or any of the countless other modern things you take for granted, but not the ones that deal with bioengineering?
and while we are at it, how do you like oh i dont know the internet, funny how we can talk isnt it, i mean it is totally natural for people to be able to communicate across wast distances, you want to live on an all natural way well you better not wear anything synthetic, have any modern technology , all man made non natural stuff, meanwhile you are freaking out about something you clearly dont know shit about while using laughable arguments that you dont even seem to be able to tell dont even work defending what you think you can defend with it
+Za1SH you need to look up selective breeding before you start talking about nature,like oh i dont know did you know humans have produce animals that can ONLY give birth with human help, you like corn, look up how it looks in its natural form, you like bananas? yeah well those are freaks of humanity, so you might want to think about what you count as normal, humans have been screwing with nature for millennia
well if you dont know what the fuck you are talking about then yes, yes you do need to take classes to know what you are talking about, see there is a thing called experts, do you know how they became experts? they gained knowledge, knowledge that has undergone the scientific process and well dont play on emotions, what you gone qoute the roundup study, with the tumour rats well have you read it, have you seen what kind of rats they used and what they are known for, have you seen the living conditions they lived under, oh maybe the danish pig farmer who has been criticized for how he allowed so many of his pigs to get sick and didnt even make sure the non gmo fed pigs got 100% non gmo foods
so you are not eating any cooked foods then since that is not natural, what about wearing clothing, or corn, or cows, hope you dont have a dog since they are not natural at all, please just read about how potent your digestive system is and you might be better of in life
Gmo rap
March against Monsanto! GMOs you gotta go! Anti-GMO Rap - GMO Bodies
Arizona—//gmo-freephoenix.com is a food activist group working to educate consumers on safe ingredients and increase the Non-GMO Tipping Point ...
Most people do not know who monsanto is. Most people do not care what they
eat. We spend more money on healthcare than any other nation yet we have
the highest cancer, obesity, autism, diabeties, ect. Most other countries
will not accept our gmo crops to feed their animals but im sure theyre all
crazy because our government loves us. They dont talk about there being too
many humans on the planet and wanting to reduce the population.
Hey!
Just wondering if there was a way to get in touch with the guy who wrote
the song down here! :D
I'm an English teacher in France, and I intend to work on this track with
my students, but some of the lyrics still remain a mystery to me, even
after several listenings and the use of all my good will, if I dare say! :D
Need help!
Eating genetically modified foodstuffs doesn't make you morbidly obese,
eating things that come out of a bucket for every main meal makes you
morbidly obese. I mean fuck, ALL of our food is genetically modified
through crossbreeding, now we're just skipping the steps and doing it
faster. I hope you all starve.
I hope some day you realize how ridiculous is this fight of yours. GMOs are
as safe and tasty as conventional crops and they can be more ecological and
nutritious. Monsanto is not even half the monster you created with all this
fearmonger propaganda and lies you read on eco-pretentious websites and
media.
Are you serious? you want to blame GMO's for people being fat? It's not a
genetic modification that's makes it so people have so self control! Do you
research before you attack the agriculture industry.
Tackling the issue of world hunger and genetically modified organisms, PandoDaily and Explainer Music team up to share the risks of genetically modified food.
A great idea, especially since there is so much misinformation going around
about Genetically Modified Foods, but I would have liked to have seen talk
about how all our food is genetically modified. Directed evolution is a
form of genetic modification and one that has been done since the dawn of
mankind. Letters aren't intrinsically connected to a specific word, just
like genes aren't intrinsically connected to a strand of DNA; there is
nothing to fear about transgenic foods, protein is protein.
So whether it is done through crossbreeding, natural selection, selective
breeding, or gene splicing - genetic modification is happening every single
time an organism reproduces. This is how we get such a varied population.
Back to the resistance genes, two separate organisms from different
environments can develop the same exact gene; this is because the protein
is all that matters, and if it allows the breakdown of a compound (think
enzymes) then that reaction is going to be very similar.
It has not been proven to have any particular health effect (you are
undoubtedly referring to Seralini's pathological science which no
scientific body takes seriously due to numerous fatal flaws). It's not
doing anything to bees, sorry. I'm not sure where that Monsanto story came
from (something about how they only serve organic in their cafeterias,
right?) but it's another fabrication. In fact, talking about GMO's doesn't
even make sense. Talk about specific modifications, in any case.
Genes are genes, just because they happen to be expressed in one organism
at one particular moment means nothing. That would be like having issue
with using a certain word because it already appears in a different book.
DNA is simply a code that is used by organisms to build proteins, where we
first found the order of the nucleotides does not matter. Think of letters
as nucleotides, words as genes, and meaning as protein - the first use
isn't what is important - it's what you do with it.
Also the pesticide portion makes it seem like the crops modified to express
pesticides do so in their fruit, which is not the case at all. The
pesticides produced in the leaves and only come into effect when the leaf
cells are lysed by the target pest. You aren't going to be eating these
pesticides in GMO crops, unlike regular crops where the pesticides are just
dumped over everything - hence why people like organic. GMO crops don't
produce "super bugs" either, that would be pesticides.
This is why I'm saying that the method doesn't matter and that we've been
doing genetic modification for years, because it happens in nature
regardless of whether or not we do anything ourselves. Without genetic
mutations we wouldn't be here. Literally, no evolution would have occurred
to get us to this point. I'm not trying to overload you with comments, you
just seemed genuinely interested and I figured you deserved as in depth an
answer as YouTube comments would allow. -Peter-
Wrong. You are confusing selective breeding of plants and animals which has
been occurring for centuries. Plant breeders created new hybrid varieties
of vegetables and flowers from established lines via cross-pollination.
Cross-pollination also occurs naturally among plants. What distinguishes
hybridization and cross-pollination from genetically engineered varieties
is the introduction of a gene or set of genes unrelated to the genetic
material of the parent organism (species).
Double in Biomolecular Engineering and Molecular, Cellular, & Developmental
Biology with a minor in Bioinformatics at UCSC (2nd most influential
University in research). Traits expressed by animals and plants have been
positively selected for by their environment. A great example of this is
resistance genes, which allow an organism to access resources and
reproduce. There are no foreign or natural genes, just the ones that
evolutionary have been selected for and expressed.
Rubbish. Genes have multi functions within an organism, and there are also
switcher genes that turn functions on and off. When genetic material is
transfered to a different speices, it can have different functions, and
unintended consequences. If you really are scietnifically trained you
should know that.If you know that, then you are being deceptive. If you
dont know it you are ignorent. Either way you are not to be trusted.
You are missing the point. The point is that what distinguishes GMO is the
introduction of a gene or set of genes unrelated (or foreign) to the
genetic material of the parent organism. If that's what you do (do what?),
you probably should know to make that distinction. Your original statement
seems to imply that GMO, the way you very well know it is understood here,
is but part of "what we always have done."
Yeah, that sounds about right. That's where I would guess they might have
gotten that story unless they are merely repeating a talking point from an
anti GMO website (which is more likely). Of course, it actually shows
nothing about Monsanto employees avoiding their own products. Read the top
hit when you google "metabunk Debunked Monsanto canteens cafeterias serve".
Have they been proven to cause cancer in humans? No. If I'm not mistaken,
that's the point of roundup. If humanitly wants to survive, we aren't going
to sustain 7+ billion people on natural produce. To feed the US alone in
non-GMO crops would mean 6 BILLION more acres of farm land. And that's
factoring out poor feritlity, crop diseases, and droughts.
GMO's are danger to health. Take the experiment to tranfer genetic
information from a brazi nut to soys. What happened ? The brazil but can
causes life threatening alergic reactions to some people, and this was
trasnfered to the GM Soya. You think this danger is present with
traditional cross fertilisation within speices ?
it's proven to cause cancer in rats, it may not have been proven to cause
cancer in humans (yet), but give it a few years. it can't be good for
humans if it's killing rats (and causing bees to migrate to countries where
they are not using roundup). it's also known that monsanto employees avoid
their own products.
Hasn't it also been proven that the GMOs where the plants produce their own
pesticides are incapable of harming us? Nothing will EVER be the perfect
little solution. However, I would rather take a chance at feeding the world
than worry about potential hazards. Have you ever heard of Schrodinger's
cat?
So you recon a fish mates with a tomatoe in nature ? GMO is nothing to do
with cross breeding within a species. Nature or evolution has bought
barriors there for a reason, and we are risking creating new diseases
through this. And what for ? For Monsanto to have power controle and
profit.
At least these idiots don't hate GMOs for no reason. No matter what you do,
people will profit. There is no way around that that actually is
sustainable and realistic. Who cares if they make a mint and world hunger
ends and you get juicier tomatoes? God, people are idiots.
Scarcity isn't the cause for hunger and so it shouldn't be a reason to
encourage GMOs. 1 billion people in the world are classed as hungry by the
W.H.O. but there's enough food to feed 3 billion more people than the
world's current population!
We don't know what GMOs do to our bodies. Actually toxicity testing can
reveal alot about what the crop may do. There are many promising ways for
dealing with resistance, such as refuges. A proportion of the crop that is
not GMO.
I am not confusing anything, selective breeding and gene splicing are both
forms of genetic modification - they are simply different methods of
modification. I would know, this is what I do.
That's awesome! You bring it up and you don't know what you are talking
about? I guess one doesn't have to know what they are talking about when
they are merely repeating talking points.
A company CLEARLY does not care about feeding the world when they're so
hell-bent on suing for patent infringement. They only care about
monopolizing the food supply and profits.
i care because the food like products they produce cause cancer. the
pesticides they sell (roundup) kills plants (unless they are gmo plants).
enjoy your jucier tomatoes....
