Monsanto Quotes

“I don't want to say Monsanto is evil right off the bat, but why is Monsanto so evil?”
― Bill Maher

“People are vaccinated with dangerous chemicals during their childhood, indoctrinated with immorality through television while growing up, taught to reject God by their teachers, fed with genetically modified food, and led to suspect others by their relatives and friends, and then you wonder why it's so difficult to find a normal person in this modern world, why nobody assumes responsibility for their words and behavior, and why everyone is so selfishly abusive. The biblical apocalypse has begun and the zombies are everywhere. It's just that we call them stupid and selfish instead. But they do act like there's no life inside of them anymore. There are no more normal human beings around. The survivors of this apocalypse are extremely scarce and must be treasured.”

“If you have to wear a hazmat suit to raise crops, why would you ever eat them? If you’re afraid of getting that crap on your skin, how much more insane would it be to put it in your mouth! Seriously? I often wonder, and I wish someone would research it if they haven’t already, whether the CEOs of Monsanto, Dupont, etc., eat GMO products and feed them to their families, or if they send out their ‘personal shoppers’ to the local farmer’s market to bring home fresh, organic produce every week? I suspect the latter. I’m quite sure they all have reverse osmosis water systems in their mansions. Let me put it bluntly, if I haven’t been clear so far. The day the CEO of Monsanto guzzles a gallon of Roundup, is the day I’ll consider buying their products, maybe.”

“Monsanto is among the biggest serial killers in the USA.”
― Steven Magee

“Firma Monsanto została założona w 1901 roku, w Saint Louis w stanie Missouri, i produkowała sacharynę sprzedawaną Coca-Coli. Przez pół wieku wytwarzała preparaty owadobójcze, plastik, rozmaite środki chemiczne, sławę zyskała jednak w latach sześćdziesiątych, kiedy to wojna w Wietnamie spopularyzowała produkt zwany Agent Orange, czynnik pomarańczowy - silny środek powodujący opadanie liści. Amerykanie stosowali go w lasach i na polach uprawnych, chcąc doprowadzić swoich wrogów na skraj głodu. Samoloty bojowe rozpylały wówczas nad krajem chmury trucizny: pół miliona Wietnamczyków zmarło, pół miliona dzieci urodziło się zdeformowanych - a tymczasem firma rozwijała się i bogaciła.
W latach siedemdziesiątych wynaleziono bardzo silny środek chwastobójczy oparty na glifosacie, nazwany Roundup, po latach wyprodukowano nasiona soi, kukurydzy i pszenicy odporne na spore nawet ilości tego herbicydu - nazwane Roundup Ready - i bardzo wydajne.
Nasiona te rozprowadzone zostały wśród wielkich producentów w Stanach Zjednoczonych, Kanadzie, w Ameryce Łacińskiej. Obecnie firma kontroluje 90 procent światowego rynku nasion transgenicznych.”

“Brennan, you are so corny Monsanto is trying to patent you and I love it.”
― Ryan J. Gutierrez, Scars in Time: A Novel
