No. It doesn't. It shits all over the process I mentioned first and then it gets called "progress" by techbros like you.
Why would we want that when our food crops have already been developed for us over thousands of years before our food supply was hijacked by a class of profiteering parasites?
Are you listening to yourself?
No. It isn't. Unless you're a fan of everybody but the ultra-rich suffering famine - then it's pretty much a ready-made recipe for you.
You literally make one argument: "nuh-uh!"
Maybe read into GMO, what it does?
Yeah, companies like Monsanto can suck dicks, but it's not the only one and even they make loads of advanced too. Blame the managers, not the biologists. Changes to tomato DNA makes it that they stay good much longer, those are the results of GMO, these are the things that people like you are trying to stop.
If the world is to survive the coming climate change disaster, we'll NEED GMO more than anything but we can rest easy knowing that people like you will be on the line to stop that and make sure we'll continue to go hungry.
Learn a little, become less extremist.
You mean the people whose propaganda you are shilling here?
Yeah... that's what's been holding our civilization back, genius - tomatoes that don't act according to what your techbro sci-fi fantasies dictate they should.
Right, right... it just so happens (totally coincidentally) that we will (allegedly) "need" the (alleged) "solution" the very capitalists who caused the problem in the first place happens to be selling.
What else do you believe, liberal? That Musk will reserve a spot for you on his Mars colony?
No one is mentioning Musk. He can go fuck himself on Mars, he's a pile of shit.
It's a harsh reality that food may become hard to produce with the climate crisis. Obviously it's large corporations to blame for that, but regardless of the blame, we may need to find new ways to farm depending on the climate.
I'd rather rely on science than "thousands of years of selective breeding" to achieve the same result.
Harsh words for a bunch of people who shares his ideology, methinks. You should'nt be. Either be nice to your idols - or critique him properly. You're a scientist, right? Shouldn't be too difficult for you.
Oh look... another "scientist" that completely fails to apply their "scientific mind" to political reality. Why is that a feature amongst scientists?
What kind of scientist doesn't recognize the scientific process in action? That is... unless you believe that it's only white people in lab coats who could possibly ever do "science."
One gross overgeneralization after another. It's clear that you are just regurgitating bullshit you heard from one "reliable" source.
I'm done replying, so kindly, fuck off.
So I guess that's a no on the whole "apply their “scientific mind” to political reality" thing, eh, "scientist?"
I guess Bill Gates is not just the PR industry's sugar daddy, is he?
I'm not into tech, but I am a scientist (chemistry, not biology) but I have a pretty good grasp on it.
If it can generate more hearty crops, it's a net good for everyone.
Yes, because we don't already have the ability to do this, right? Our food crops is so "non-hearty" one has to wonder why we bothered with civilization at all.
That's an asinine take on everything. The only reason we need "more hearty" crops is the increase in population, and the climate crisis.
Also "food crops are" not is.
Ah, yes... another "scientist" that wants to fix the climate crisis while completely ignoring the very thing that caused the climate crisis in the first place.
How "scientific."
