- hammock 4y ago>I quit a good job in the agriculture business once I found out the idiot "daddys money got squandered" business owner got his new injection in cash in a backroom deal w/ Monsanto. Curious about this. Did Monsanto give the farmer an advance or something, in return for agreeing to use/switch to their seed?

- user3939382 4y ago> pernicious and devious sockpuppetry cough persona management disinfo campaigns Yeah I've gotten super weird responses when I discuss them on forums where randos are like verbatim repeating their PR talking points, and with a bizarre level of passion. Of course I don't have the information to prove/disprove these things and, insofar as I also see it on HN, these accusations are against the rules, so I don't say anything but it's highly suspicious to say the least.

Most countries ban Neonicotinoids nowadays. https://www.downtoearth.org.in/news/nicotinebased-pesticides-kill-bees-4693 https://www.downtoearth.org.in/news/nicotinebased-pesticides...
