Our own @ksenapathy's latest @Slate piece:
Why I Stopped Defending GMOs
The scientific evidence is important, but there’s more to consider.
"Little by little, I and others, including my MAMyths co-founders, began to question being 'pro-GMO.'"
Kavin Senapathy@ksenapathy
My latest writing is about the scientific imperialism of Golden Rice for @slate "Proponents of golden rice—including, at one point, me—suppose that less developed countries simply need a little technological help from a society that knows more than they do. It’s paternalistic."

We learned some lessons the hard way. @ksenapathy explains in her piece:
"I Was Lured Into Monsanto’s GMO Crusade. Here’s What I Learned.
Public debates about science and technology are rarely ever just about the science and technology."

By the way, here's a text version of the aforementioned speech I gave in front of the CA capitol building about this cult of pro-GMO. "The calls for unity in the pro-GMO movement are counterproductive and detrimental."

Western science prides itself in achieving “objective” research, which is inherently biased by reproducing white Eurocentric ideals of what science should be and who it should serve. Check out Sophie Wang's The Objectivity of My Affection on our blog. #colonizerscience #stem

Turns out considering consequences is good for science...
“people view it as a way to get press and get publicity and get famous...There’s no doubt in my mind that somebody is going to end up hurt eventually. Everybody is trying to one-up each other...”

Biological race is an artificial construction part infinity. Despite all the science confirming this fact, structures of power in society still remain tethered to racist pseudoscience, an ideology exercised through continued oppression of people of color.

Don't fall for the #myth that #science and #socialJustice don't need each other. They are absolutely intertwined and we know this, through science! 🐝

“by @MonsantoCo giving a pedestal to Peterson’s controversial ideology, there is now a fascinating rift brewing in the pro-GMO activist community.”
