Familiar with Roundup? It's a highly toxic chemical that kills nearly anything it touches. Crops were "bioengineered" to be tolerant to roundup. Farmland was then saturated with Roundup, killing only the undesirable plants (weeds).

"Testing" the bioengineered crops would have revealed no problematic effects to the plant. But it turns out human consumption of Roundup is VERY harmful.... nature would have never produced a plant immune to Roundup. Gene editing did. Unfortunately the second/third order effects became apparent only after the practice was already mainstream.... this is a large contributor to America's food supply being toxic

If we assume gene X only controls one trait, but it turns out to control a lot of functions, we could introduce weird diseases or mutations by accident. When you selectively breed, you let evolved biological control mechanisms filter out potentially dangerous mututions

I don't trust profit-motivated corporations to tinker/optimize for bigger oranges and beefier cows without tolerating some possibly harmful tradeoffs. These are the ppl that brought us high fructose corn syrup. Given the means, they will ALWAYS want a "stickier" product..

The nuanced distinction between the two approaches is in fact the very critical detail... every single thing humans do HAS to factor in the probability of human error......

Human error in the context of selective breeding has a much lower probability of catastrophic fallout than does human error in the context of direct genetic modification/"bioengineering"

Both change genes, so they are hardly "completely different"

Selective breeding and genetic engineering are completely different.

One involves selecting for traits over generations, the other involves taking genes from a different organism and splicing them into something for a desired trait.

I rate this painting a club sandwich.

Governments send people into other countries to do bad things in that country.

Theres literally a clip of the Mexican president urging illegal aliens from Mexico to continue creating chaos in the United States going around TODAY.

You’re beyond retarded. You’re a danger to society.

In a completely different context that has nothing to do with this one. I already admitted that you're putting forward a dishonest and fallacious argument. You've proven nothing else. Again, it's been real. But peace out.

So you are saying destroying corporate property is okay in certain context right?

Because they are two completely different contexts lol You're comparing domestic property damage of a private party to damage of weapons factories during a war where the affected country was destroying other people's property. A war and conflict they started. I'm talking about a domestic issue where domestic inhabitants are violently destroying the property of others protected under the same rules of law. Those are very obviously two completely different scenarios if you take thirty seconds and a few brain cells to think about it.

This clearly isn't going anywhere useful and I've made my position clear enough. Peace

False equivalence. Try harder.

Says the one who just keeps using insulting terms with no real argument among them.

I will stoop down and meet you where you are. Go fuck yourself, communist moron. (How did I do?)

There's no difference.

I'm simping for private property rights and I will never stop. I am not your friend if you support this.

Is your property available for salvage?

No. I haven’t dove into comments of any of those tweets. I don’t even see much of that in my feed. Must not match my algo.

And yet, the ask is always for more, I don't know who is left to fire the weapons, but more are surely needed. Why don't we just light the money on fire, it'll be more efficient

I too have criticisms of Zelensky (where's my fucking money funny man?)
