“Swiss parliament decided that gene-edited plants with no transgenic material inserted are no longer classified as GMOs.” — Loretta Dillon-Ham, Admin. of “The One Voice Campaign” and buddy from Down Under.
On the one hand, a responsible use of CRISPR could be used to speed up traditional breeding of our food stock for the benefit of us all, with an emphasis on that provisional ‘could be’. But the perpetual problem is that the most well-intentioned of technical specialists tend to be naive regarding the politics of power. They will not be the ones deciding when, where, or how to use the fruits of their labor.
In the other hand, a half-empty bottle of rum, and whether rumination or triangulation, I can’t help but to see dire consequences ahead.
The first leg of my bar stool — As of a couple of days ago, Nov. 27, the Second Meeting of State Parties to Treaty on Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons will have begun proceedings at the U.N. headquarters in New York. Though the list of speakers for the general exchange of views has been published, it is the silence of who will not be speaking that reveals what Prime Minister Kishida meant by ‘sincere’ condolences at the Hiroshima Peace Memorial earlier this year.
World wide, thanks to politicians such as Kishida, “sincere” has been reduced to either a three letter agency or a four letter word.
Though a voice or two from Japan has been raised, neither the Mayor of Nagasaki nor an A-bomb survivor speak for ‘Japan’. The corporate nation-state of Japan, as with other G7 nations, did not even bother to send an observer.
The mass media here in Japan has given more airtime to professional baseball than the U.N. meeting. One might think in this land of noodles and circuses, this year’s Hollywood blockbuster, “Oppenheimer”, would at least be a box-office business opportunity.
But again, with silence, the lady doth protest too much methinks.
Another swig of rum, and the second leg of my stool begins to wobble — the precedent of how Big Agra GMOs have all but gutted the small farming class of India by making them dependent on seeds that don't reproduce. Or has it?
Apologist for pre-Roundup Monsanto, the WEF, the WHO, and efficiencies of scale … journalist Keith Kloor, quotes Ronald Herring, a political scientist at Cornell University
“It is hard to imagine farmers spreading a technology that is literally killing them.”
Crazy? Yep. As a fox. The very same logic has been applied to the public health industry and EUA bioweapons, with an added ‘through the looking glass’ bonus (Hey Margaret!) … the victims are also funding their own demise.
For brevity’s sober sake, I will not swirl the dirty dregs of what most readers here already know about the plandemic / third leg of this bar stool, but I just about fell off at the latest deviousness of the corruption.
The audio chat explains how the FDA is putting our tax dollars to work with an old angle on how to get the working class further addicted to weapons masquerading as cures. Again, our public servants are trying to ban long proven health supplements, this time including melatonin and aloe vera, while other arms of the emerging public-health police-state are trying to legally empower hair-dressers and beauticians to administer injections of the bioweapon.
Another swig, I close my eyes, and see think-tanks and ‘murders’ of corporate lawyers (a disservice to many a good crow) behind closed doors, scheming to game, dominate, and monopolize consumable GMOs and genetically modified humans alike. Flashback to a speech contest and comment
Whether the definition or legalities of GMOs are defined by process or product is a moot point. If, collectively, anything can be learned from history, it is this — what can be weaponized, will be.
Switzerland is caught between a rock and a hard place … a Luddite reliance on centuries-long traditional forms of breeding crops and cattle in this accelerating matrix, or faith that this time, power will play out differently. A belief in collective moral progress. The certainty that in this modern, science-driven era of enlightenment, there are few would-be, god-anointed, sociopathic-royalty among us — as was in the past. That this time, technology will not be a slippery, weaponized slope towards the self-interest of the self-entitled.
Though Switzerland is not a member of the E.U., neither is China, Russia, the U.S. or Israel.
Looking back at the broad sweep of history, or even a little one, I don't know if there is anything we little people can do about it other than a rear-guard resistance against the inevitable power-plays to come.
Whoa. It’s been a while since I’ve seen the bottom of a bar stool.
That was some mighty fine rum.
I should have been a pirate.
Thank you!
Ugh. Switzerland, of all places. We thought this was the pristine hideout of the bankers. Did you see the youtube of the guy who found thousands of bunkers all over Schweiz?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bPIaHg11mI&t=10s
Probably a good idea to keep drinking at a steady pace - keep your detox enzymes elevated. I hope your barstool is ok.
