Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it’s actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that’s really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

    But also it’s so fucking dumb when people say ‘some people are against GMO for bad reasons so I’ll fight against them and say all GMO is great’ because the theory ‘make better crops’ is good but better for who and in what way? Better in that they can withstand more patented Monsanto weedkiller? Most people who support GMO have no idea that the genetic changes being made are often just to allow farmers to use more pesticides which then run off into water tables and pollute everything…

    There are other reasons to be against certain implementations of them too, in Africa they’re making it impossible for traditional farming methods meaning the giant corporations are just taking over everything.

    No one wants a nuanced opinion anymore they want to hate the other side for being dumb and to defeat them at all costs
