Everyone is fighting and being a bitch now that “legalization” has opened the door. Too many new motherfuckers who didn’t have shit to do with it back when you had to risk your ass for it. All this fighting for chump change. Don’t know what it’s really worth. Now is the time when we should be coming together. Those of us who have really been around and actually love this plant need to ban together, not bicker. These motherfuckers like Monsanto are just waiting to pounce and take everything we have worked and fought for. Do you guys realize what filth we are up against? These are the people that bought all the land around indigenous farmers who wouldn’t buy their seed, pollinated those farmers crops, and then sued those farmers to ruin for “attempting to steal genetics”. Billionaire scumbags who care more about a buck than human life. They lobby governments to lie to the people and push the use of products that not only rob the plants of their essence but cause cancer and other illnesses. They keep farmers in a perpetual cycle paying homage to the monopoly, producing a subpar product and furthering the decimation of the native soil. A destruction which increases the farmer’s dependency on the monopoly. This is just the growth side of the issue. The genetics side goes even deeper. Just look at how many varieties of corn were common 50 years ago compared to now. How can China have practices that were sustainable for thousands of years but after adopting western “conventional” practices they are already having problems less than 50 years later? They have already gathered a ton of data from phylos and are set to patent strains. They are going to claim legal rights to strains, pull out big lawyers and big money, buy off whoever need bought off, bottleneck the gene pool, etc etc etc. We are up against a huge enemy who has more money and more power than we can imagine. But we’re over here fighting about who’s selling what seeds and who’s saying what about who...
