Is marching against monsanto liberty activism??

[speciallyblend]

Hello folks angelatc has decided that marching against Monsanto is not liberty activism. I am glad she cleared that up thru negative iming me by private message.

(Mod delete)I will continue to hold republicans accountable.

Monsanto is good for you.

 

[acptulsa]

you worry about yourself and I will continue to hold republicans accountable.

Good. But please don't forget the Democrats. It was one of them that appointed that douchebag Vilsack Sec. of Ag.

Why would any liberty minded person march against monsanto? that is what liberals do. Oh wait, you must be a liberal for wanting to protest a company that has worked very closely and has been under the protection of the US govt(especially supreme court), a company that feeds us all.

You have to be a sick liberal to support any protest against such a wonderful free market loving, private corporation. You make me sick

Marching against a company involved in the fascist system is activism for liberty no matter how you want to spin it.

Companies that are given special treatment by our government are part of the problem.

Marching doesn't do squat.

Marching doesn't do squat.

It brings lots of attention and makes people curious, and that is what activists want-- for people to be curious and go home and hopefully look this stuff up themselves.

The March Against Monsanto is a progressive trojan horse. They are not marching for freedom - they're trying to take away the rights of the farmers to grow what they want.

Nothing about this movement is honest. None of their goals are our goals.

Nobody will change their mind, but nothing that the "anti-Monsanto" crowd posts is true. But they don't care. They don't have to.

Any company powerful enough to get a law written to exempt it from the courts, specifically and particularly, is a danger to the liberty of us all. No property rights for you, when Monsanto is the opposing party.

Again, that's a lie that the liberals put out specifically tailored to generate a talking point they can use to rally progressives, and you're now parrotting it mindlessly here. I suspect you don't have much interest in the actual facts, but here they are: http://www.geneticliteracyproject.o...arating-the-facts-from-the-fury/#.U4I0YPldWSo

This is so fucked up I don't even know where to begin. The whole "March Against Monsanto" is specifically organized to encourage government to destroy a private corporation, and to prevent the businesses that we call farms from growing the crops that their customers want to buy.

Two Oregon counties just took away the rights of farmers to grow certain crops, Monsanto included. specifically to protect the organic markets.

And here we are - cheering it on? And I'm a stupid bitch for not cheering it on?

I agree that we shouldn't "encourage government to destroy a private corporation", but neither should we "encourage government to prop up and give special favors for said private corporation."

Marching against Fascism, as represented by Monsanto: definitely liberty activism.

 

[mosquitobite]

In my opinion, LIBERTY is letting other people have the LIBERTY to decide what they want to do.

I have no use for armchair quarterbacks and hashtag warriors.

But if someone gets off their butt and networks with like minds? That I can endorse.

OWS was vilified by the mainstream media, but really conservatives against bank bailouts should have found common ground. Remember, the more they divide us, the easier for them to maintain the 2 party system.

A small sampling of the fascism found in the relationship between Monsanto and our rulers.

This. I'd add that the issue is far more intricate than just the safety of GMOs. We have a revolving door between lawmakers in Washington,the FDA, the courts and agribusiness. Conflicts of interest between top government officials who have personal stakes in Genetically Modified Organisms or GMO. Michael Taylor, Clarence Thomas, John "Toby" Moffett, Margaret Miller just to name a few. The repercussion of this extends to foreign policy, economics, dangerous industry sponsored legislation and much more. Certainly we're seeing the very principle of the free market system underminded by industry backed legislation that would remove the means for the people to know what they are consuming into their bodies as well as the states' rights to protect them from this government intrusion. Such legislation is the very model to remove choice in every sense of the word. This is a phenomenon where we see the industries attempt to protect themselves from the free market by way of that revolving door and scenarios where we see them buying off congressmen as we see with Congressman Mike Pompeo, Koch network and Monsanto (for one). Pompeo has received more money from them than any other so called representative of the people. This phenomenon has been discussed at great length across the board here at RPF.

There is a difference between the free market and mercantilism. It's not something that we are able to place into relevance until the issue is properly discussed in context with foreign policy and economics. Some other areas of infrastructure. Both geo-politically and domestically. Recent farm bill was some skullduggery, for sure.

Thanks for that link, pretty informative.

It is fucked up, we routinely have people here arguing in favor of govt control over private property and trying to frame it as some type of liberty bullshit.
