21. What the fuck does enthusiasm have to do with this?

I am talking about GMO Corn soy. The over use of roundup is fucked up.

My grandfathers farm is next to a roundup fucked up farm. Life abounds on our property. The adjective property is a wasteland. The soil looks different, feels different, smells different, is different.

A monoculture of "magic rice" is another dead end plan.

Take your fancy words and eat them. Come look at what happens on a roundup farm. I think you have a little intelligence, at least enough to believe your eyes. The largest use of GMO 's leads to damaged land. Dead land makes for poor production.

Think long term. We must make the land better each year. We can not just keep taking and dumping loads of toxic waste.
