Soy and beans

No need if it's organic. You should check your meat tho. Guess what animals are raised on...

How much soy is organic???
Last I checked 97% of soy is GMO to ignore glyphosate

I mean all the memes on Lemmy are old. So not really different from other post.
"well sure, this meme sucks. but if you think about it, don't all memes kind of suck?"
umm no?

Uhhh sir. You have just confused genetic modification and a weed killer. Please stop embarrassing yourself. This is a Wendy's.

Once again I'm baffeled by people like him beeing able to raise an intelligent and feeling animal, kill it and devour its cadaver (and beeing proud of it, lol).
Like, just eat the crops directly instead of passing it through an animal and loose like >80% of harvested callories)
He's right on the GMO thing, tho. There are crops that have been specifically modified to increase their resistance to glyphosate.

Do you not know how gylophosate works??
The plant needs to be modified to ignore the glyphosate that attaches to the nutrients that causes all plants unable to eat therefore die.
Now thia modified plant is chalk full of glyphosate while its growing

I know how intellegent animals are. I have to interact with them daily.
And yes I know I am right about glyphosate, Monsanto (now bayer) used to sue farmers for recovering seeds from soy because it infringed on their patents.
Also do the same things with cotton. Farmers used to feed the sheep the left overs untill the GMO product started to kill the sheep... -

Hahahah, oh how naive you are. All that glyphosate has gone to your brain budd

Is that what he was trying to say? I couldn't find a way to read that so it made sense.

Hahahah, oh how naive you are.
What you'd call naive, i'd call it idealistic.
Like 99% of GMO soy is used for animals. If I am naive if I exlusively buy organic and regional (at least from the same country, not the other side of the world) legumes and soy products, so be it...All that glyphosate has gone to your brain budd
From what i've seen in documentaries about Roundup rural regions have more miscarriages and malformed babies so i guess the main risk is still exposure in the direct environment (living and drinking tap water in areas with a lot of conventional agriculture).
I assumed pesticides were like antibiotics where the stuff is stored inside fat and muscle tissue and found in high concentrations in meat products aswell but it seems i was wrong. Most articles online found high concentrations on conventionally produced fruits and vegetables.
I'm not gonna change your mind by arguing with you on the internet, and I'm not trying to, but I'm genuenly curious: How can you eat something you raised? I've had chickens, rabbits and dogs in the past and I couldn't imagine eating them. Each one was an individual and had their own personality and character. I'd probably puke if someone told me I've just eaten them.

Strangely I only know what a quartz lattice looks like. No idea what olivine is off the top of my head.
Is GMO resistance to pesticides instead of resistance to pests the low effort hack it sounds like to a non-ag major?

How can you eat something you raised?
Chickens are easy, I don't name them or interact other than feeding. Although I did have trouble with the last female last year. Put her into the chicken holder and she managed to get out.
We do have 3 egg layers that are 8-9 now and couldnt eat them
Pigs, I interact daily, give them scratches and treats. We send them to an abittoir.
Everything dies eventually, at least I know they had a good life while it lasted.

I've heard that kind of attachement to favorite animals from a couple of farmers. Perhaps this is psychologically similar to a teacher having a teachers pet while all others "move on"?

Ah okay, so is your existentce is dependent on animal farming? So it's like a "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas"-kind of situation...

It sounds like you really do care, but their existence is imo rather needlessly (and in some cases horrifically) cut short, no?
Maybe i've thought about this to much but I always ask myself: How old would domesticated animal get if they are not slaughtered and can I justify this choice by the imo neglible gains (not having to take as many supplements and the taste i am accustomed from my youth) I gets from a omnivorous diet?
