Genetically modified food is a very controversial topic these days and it's often debated across the social networks and forums. Although, I'm not sure if debated is the proper term, because not that many seem to have anything good to say about GMOs, or at least that's what I've seen. For the most part, GMO related threads consist in criticism and warnings about the danger GMOs represent for consumers and the environment (and Monsanto is an evil corporation ran by Satan himself), that usually turn into big circle jerks where anyone with a different POV gets blasted away by the vast majority. There are times where these discussions are more balanced and rational, but these are not the norm.But is it true? Is this anti-GMO sentiment justified? Are the masses right? Are they fighting for a noble cause that will benefit humanity or is this the product of the natural fear humans tend to develop against changes and new things? I'm not an expert on the matter but I'm very interested.
