So now we do it in an even more deliberate way. We do not create totally random changes anymore. Everything we do now could have happened without us knowing in the past, including what some would call a mix of species. There is only one species when it comes to DNA.
So am I against big companies making farmers dependent on them? Hell yes. Am I against decimating animal habitats for mutant crops? Totally.
But do I want humanity to starve to a size where it can sustain itself as a hunter-gatherer tribe, the only way that could arguably be called natural as in a world untouched by human intelligence? Doomed on a rock floating through space, ignoring its own possibilities? No way.
I do respect that I live in a society that seems to largely have a different opinion but I also feel that many people fall victim to misinformation about this topic.
Sorry for the interruption.
