Monsanto's smear tactics

Well, yeah, Monsanto is Monsanto. I wouldn’t be surprised if they used underhanded tactics to discredit Gilliam’s book. That fusion center stuff is ridiculous though. The internal emails just show that Monsanto decided to ignore Gilliam and Paul Thacker.

On the other hand, Gilliam isn’t a journalist. She’s an anti-GMO activist employed by US Right to Know. Their biggest contributor is the Organic Consumers Association, which, along with funding anti-GMO activities, also promotes anti-vaxx propaganda. They and Dr Andrew Wakefield were responsible for the largest measles outbreak in Minnesota in 30 years in 2017. They targeted the Somalia-American community there because they were the most vulnerable to anti-vaxx propaganda.

The EPA is about to say that California can’t issue carcinogenic warning labels for Roundup under Prop 65. California’s own regulatory committee reviewed the research and found it to be non-carcinogenic, but was trying to label it based on the IARC report. Four scientists on the IARC panel have gotten rich in lawsuits against Bayer/Monsanto. So, like Monsanto, when faced with bad news, the Organic industry/USRTK is flooding the internet with negative PR about their enemy, such as the interview above. I’m not saying Monsanto didn’t do what Gilliam says they did, but the Organic Industry uses the same tactics. They secretly pay academics to say what they want them to say, just like they accuse Monsanto of doing. USRTK paid someone $134000 in 2018 but Ruskin refuses to disclose who it was. They accuse scientists working in biotech of being shills, smear their reputations, dox them, etc. etc.

Well, I dont even know what being a “journalist” means in the context of a late-stage-Corporotacracy. What is a ‘journalist’? Someone who writes for the NYTimes? Wall Street Journal? NPR? Is Julian Assange a ‘journalist’? Yes? No?

As per usual, I am left in a state of I-dunno-ville. So I cant say the monsanto-critic-lady is “not a journalist.” Coz i dont even know what the word means anymore.

At any rate, i posted that vid before i watched all of it. Always a no-no. After i watched it, i regretted posting it. There wasnt much there.

But still I’m WAY ahead of the rest of you on points. Because I posted the article on Nuns having Slaves.
Nuns had Slaves. I walk around thinking about that all day long. Nuns had slaves. Its just…so…perfect. A perfect summary of human-kind.

Well, what I try to remember when I read about this stuff (and I read about this stuff every day – sad, I know) is that this isn’t David vs Goliath or Good v Evil…this is two mega industries vying for market share.

So I try to cut through all that BS and concentrate on what the science says. The science is what matters to me.
