      Well, alright thanks for clearing that up. I understand the meme now, although I still struggle with the … unusual use of terminology. But yes, it very much makes sense to show teosinte then!

        Then again, depending on if you count CRISPR gene editing as GMO, the terminology fits perfect. CRISPR does exactly the same as breeding, just with perfection and knowing what happend on molecular biological level.

      Well golly gee, I guess that means GMO crops that are bred to survive glyphosate and other pesticides must be the same thing then!

      All I see here is an attempt to amalgamate GMO’s and selective breeding to manipulate public perception… which leads to higher profits.

        You’re problem is with pesticides, not GMO. Youve just been convinced by the people trying to amalgamate GMO and pesticides. You know who stands to make a lot of profit from that? The corporations pushing organics into a fast growing 70 billion dollar industry.
