I honestly want to thank you for taking the time to put together such a detailed and thoughtful video, even when you clearly didn’t have to. Like I’ve always said, you don’t owe anybody an explanation, so the fact that you went out of your way to do this is highly appreciated.The video is based on your own research and understanding. As you rightly pointed out, you are not an agricultural scientist. Thank you, Doctor. That being said, see this comment as me airing my own views and not trying to go back and forth with you. Your video has actually validated most of the serious concerns many of us have raised about GMO seeds. You pointed out that GMO seeds can wipe out local seeds. When (not if) that happens, farmers would be entirely dependent on the corporations who own these GMO seeds, and that’s one of the scariest parts. What happens when these companies decide to withhold seeds? Or increase prices astronomically? What if they manipulate supply during a food crisis or economic downturn? These companies patent their seeds, meaning farmers can’t save or replant them, which breaks the age old cycle of farming passed from generation to generation. It forces farmers into buying seeds year after year, leading to endless debt cycles. This is not hypothetical. It’s been happening, especially in places like India, where thousands of farmers have taken their own lives because they couldn’t keep up. GMO crops are heavily reliant on chemical herbicides like glyphosate, and this has led to overuse, contaminating soil and water, and destroying the natural microorganisms that keep our soil fertile. It gets worse. Over time, when weeds and pests develop resistance to these chemicals, what happens? Farmers will use more toxic chemicals. The long term environmental damage is reala soil degradation, biodiversity loss. On health side, true the biotech industry insists GMOs are safe,but then there are no long term INDEPENDENT study tracking what happens to the human body after decades of consuming genetically modified foods. These are foods altered at the DNA level by inserting genes from unrelated species o!. Some of these modifications may trigger allergic reactions or unknown side effects in some people, especially vulnerable populations like Africa. There’s also concern that GMO crops may have unintended interactions in our bodies or lead to antibiotic resistance… these are the issues. And doc, plants and seeds do evolve naturally like the corn you mentioned, it not genetically modified. There’s also political side. GMOs will give massive multinational corporations a dangerous amount of control over our food system. It’s no longer about farming, it’s about business and patents. The bigger picture is what this does to food security. When only a few corporations control the seeds, they control the food. If they fail, sabotage, or become compromised, entire nations can starve. This is not even conspiracy theory. These are what could happen. This is not just a scientific issue. It’s a moral one. It’s political. It’s generational. It’s about sovereignty over food, over land, and over life itself. Once you lose that, you’re at the mercy of those who own the means to grow your food. Again, the person aggressively pushing for GMO seeds in Africa and Asia is Bill Gates. In 2010 TED Talk, Gates said, “The world today has XXX billion people. That’s headed up to about nine billion. Now, if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we could lower that by, perhaps, XX or XX percent.” If anything, farmers, those who feed most of Africa and Asia, are being pushed out. Indigenous farming wisdom is being erased. Seed diversity is disappearing. We are replacing resilient, diverse, naturally adapted seeds with patented, fragile, lab made clones. The price of getting it wrong is too high especially when it’s aggressively pushed in Africa by… BILL GATES. XXXXXXX engagements  [Post Link](https://x.com/GeneralSnow_/status/1948331814516293885)
