    In my world, there is no room for benefit of the doubt when it comes to Bayer/Monsanto. They’ve proven time and time again that their products can’t be trusted and that they don’t care about poisoning people, extracting money from the poorest farmers by forcing them to buy their patented seeds.

      What I’m talking about has nothing to do with trusting those companies or giving them the benefit of the doubt. I guess my point boils down to: if they touch something, it isn’t automatically bad and harmful.

      Monsanto probably advises irrigating crops with water. Does that mean water is bad and we should switch to Brawndo?
