GMOs destroy dna, cause disease, and are just bad, mmkay.
They also line the pockets of big industry while destroying the little guy.
They contaminate existing seeds, this contamination can never be reversed.
They require more pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides.
The same people that said Agent Orange, DDT, and PCBs are safe are now telling us GMOs are safe.
Despite perceptions, GMOs do not increase crop yield.
They have less nutrients.
And about 107 other things that are bad about them.
Most of this is speculative or has been proven to be inaccurate.

Exactly. But it sounds bad. So let's go protest!!!!
Not saying some of it isn't bad. But people always gotta pick a side. It's hardly ever that simple.

Most?
2 through 6 aren't debatable.
First line isn't really either, but there are still a lot of unknowns and not many thorough tests so it's hard to say for certain.

There is near total scientific consensus that food derived from or using GMOs are safe.
Nothing to see here.
