I thought these already existed, but it's no surprise to me.
We are exposed to chemicals constantly because we are chemical creatures, so the word "chemical" has no negative connotation by itself. Tell me how someone having glyphosphate tolerant grass would expose me to harmful chemicals?

What's so great about diversity? I hear the phrase used constantly as something that is desirable, but I have yet to be shown how it is a benefit. Regardless, it is egocentric to believe that diversity can be eliminated entirely.
What law is being broken that makes the introduction of higher yielding crops to a region a criminal violation, especially when the government grants approval?
This rhetoric is poorly (not at all) backed by science or reason.
