Many of the starving african nations are there because food aid completely fucks up local agriculture and leads to their agro industry only being used for exports to fatten up eurasians and americans.
A - Engineering does fuck all without research. And Mendel still did nothing of the sort you suggest he did. B - I'm complaining about the abuses of it. Not the system itself.
Funny how you mention diamonds, as in that case, too, they're under the control of a huge megacorporation who basically owns governments. Governments, dictators and corporations are to blame. The last one is important.
If they were not sterile Monsanto would remain villains because they've shown what happens when pollinization happens: "OMG OUR IP" and sue the already half broke farmers of the region.
I'm also aware that most of soy products are GM, I mostly buy Almond milk however. Not to say I don't use soy, I use it a lot, thanks to being used to the cooking we do on the asian side of the family.
The world is starving, and Monsanto is a huge contributor to it thanks to having a monopoly on their seeds, while roundup kills pretty much everything else, and of course their "license agreement" doesn't allow stocking seeds for the next year, and has led to farmers getting sued to ruin for having their field pollinized by GM crops. Fuck off shill.
How will a company that makes people rebuy seeds every year, makes a pesticide that kills everything else, and sues the pants off farmers whose fields get pollinized by the monsanto seeds help feed starving people who can't afford that shit anyway?
There is a huge difference between ten thousand years and ten thousand hours; for one, in these ten thousand years, we had a lot of time to do trial and error and figure out what was a bad idea or not. Some of the earliest plants cultivated had horrible effects on the health of people because they're basically empty calories, and only appeared widespread in a few small regions before mostly disappearing. At least until the 20th century.
A) Mendel did not do engineering, he did experimentations on crossbreeding B) He also did not then patent the genome of wheat or peas so that all german farmers would have to buy their seeds from his monastery, their fertilizer from his monastery, and their insecticides from his monastery, while suing people who would accidentally get his seeds through natural pollinization. Die, shill
Yep, kudos for doing it in a day, I could barely do that with Windows when my mac was out for repairs (my first impulse was to get wubi and turn the borrowed box into a linux box), now if GIMP could just switch names or something, hell, maybe it could adopt GEGL as its name since they're busy porting it to finally add 16 bit and CMYK natively to GIMP.
Or what about a composite (say, GIL: Generic Image Library), GIMA (pronounce gimmeh), with program replacing application. You know... something that doesn't abbreviate to either BDSM terminology or a slur...
Yes, why are those people so easily offended. I mean, they don't even want to use the Batch inspection tool chain and history or the Natural illumination gyrating grid enhancer restorer extensions.
Sidenote: the complaint has also been put up on the mailing lists by people who contribute, it led to flame wars and edgy "why so PC" by other oblivious twits with the maturity of 12 year olds.
LOL Yes, people should have the right to be worked off their ass for merely 5$ a day, no safety regulations, 72 hours a week. And die at 40 from various diseases caused by this.
You're a ridiculous corporate tool with no understanding of economics. This kind of measure would merely drive western economies completely down the hole, if you think the crisis hurts the middle class, wait until the corporations can afford to completely under pay workers at the current level of subsistance: there will be no middle class, period. Your economy needs people to consume to run, and if people are back to barely scraping by, you're going to destroy things even more. Fucking randtard.
Your main point relies on a view of the 19th century that wasn't so. Addressing it would be basically teaching the controversy. The economic system of 19th century britain was made possible in part because it lacked these worker and minority protections.
No, you completely missed the point: the fight was on for the people involved. Racism was very much alive and led to fighting and revolutions, sexism led to violent manifestations for basic rights as property and vote. Sexual Orientation: the first attempts at gay liberation in Europe were mostly in Germany.
It's only not relevant because you have the luxury that it would not have been relevant to you. The people who were crushed under the weight and fighting because of it would beg to differ and would gladly ask that you stop peeing on their memory.
Which I already pointed out was a myth. It was only limited by the technical means available, not by a lack of willingness to do so. Otherwise britain wouldn't have had anti-sodomoy, anti-blasphemy and other such laws.
As for the good parts: what good parts? The Bloody Code? The inexistence of the Human Rights act? The limitation of the electoral franchise? The lack of worker protections? Blasphemy laws by the ton?
Feminist started in the 18th century. Frederick Douglas would likely be to classy to vomit on your boots, but I wouldn't. And sexual orientation was most certainly not an issue FOR THE PEOPLE WHO WERE JUDICIALLY MURDERED ABOUT IT. You've however happily told me the core bit: you're an idiotic straight white male who thinks if things are good for him they're good for everyone.

But what does this have to do with soy millk?
I'm also aware that most of soy products are GM, I mostly buy Almond milk however. Not to say I don't use soy, I use it a lot, thanks to being used to the cooking we do on the asian side of the family.
Corporations are just another form of government, anyway.

That and let's face it, at the level of awareness we're at, most species' genomes are pretty fucking close.

I decry both.
Or you could just change your diet. Just like I don't need "lactose free milk" when there's a shitton of alternatives.

They are actually very much revocable: they were revoked within a decade and had to be forced into being reinstated.
You can't talk about 19th century politics and ignore 19th century governments.
Your main point relies on a view of the 19th century that wasn't so. Addressing it would be basically teaching the controversy. The economic system of 19th century britain was made possible in part because it lacked these worker and minority protections.
Corporate towns a great symbol of the political freedom of the people?
You must be kidding...
Oh, and sodomy laws were imposed by the UK on India, meaning that it was relevant enough to be made illegal where it wasn't.
No, you completely missed the point: the fight was on for the people involved.
