The Wikipedia article on MOND literally starts with galaxy rotation curves: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modified_Newtonian_dynamics https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modified_Newtonian_dynamics There's zero mention of MOND being a rejection of general relativity. OF COURSE, any tweaking of Newton's formula at galactic scales will necessarily invalidate general relativity, since general relativity predicts Newton's formula at those scales! But MOND tries to work backwards: they propose a modification of the far-field Newtonian formula, and the belief is that it can eventually be worked out to be a limiting case of a "modified general relativity", for lack of a better name. Just how Newtonian gravity was eventually worked out to be a limiting case of a theory called general relativity.
