In reply to the discussion: condemning Monsanto with bad science is dumb [View all]socialsecurityisAAA
(191 posts)If you can even make it on a farm, now that states are attempting to pass legislation aimed at blocking animal abuse whistle blowers, you would see farm animals are suffering from illnesses much worse than were found in the rats studies. Obviously this isn't all attributable to the Gm food that farm animals are fed. Along with Gm corn covered in pesticides cows are given huge quantities of hormones and antibiotics, while fowl are fed huge amounts of antibiotics. Fowl are only supposed to be given antibiotics to treat infections but they are often administered the antibiotics as growth promoters as well. Most of these animals are also fed their own sick and dead, cannibalistically. Anyone that attempts to fool you into believing that eating meat from sick animals is good for you cares nothing about you or your health.
The cancers suffered by the rats in the study differed from the cancer suffered from rats of the same species fed a normal diet, they suffered a much higher rate of cancer by over half, and the cancers they developed were far more aggressive. Of course do you expect any major media outlet to report this? Absolutely not, why would they? These guys are flush with money from Monsanto and similar companies! How else could the campaign to label GMO's have been killed with the majority of voters supporting the measure before the massive lobbying and misinformation campaign waged by GM advocates. Media does what it is paid to do.
When the live Russian study is broadcast they will begin yet another misinformation campaign. I would not even put it past them to attempt to ignite a RED SCARE. Lol
