Sounds legit. Where do I sign up for my glyphosate injections?

Of course science is political. Knowledge is power and all power systems are political.
But ignoring philosophy, Science is a charity. By in large they must beg for their money. You don't suppose that the people providing the money have any influence?
And I'm not talking about junk science, biased studies, or even fraud. A perfectly run study may still be political simply because it was chosen for funding over something else.
It's a little more complex than that. Some things:

Or am I reading into this wrong? Cuz AFAIK glyphosate is in fact bad for the environment and the food chain including us.
I can't tell if this is supposed to be for or against glyphosate?
Depends who is making money.
I remember that when Roundup first came out, glyphosate was being held up as a brilliant example of herbicide design since it inhibits a vital metabolic pathway in plants that animals don't have. They even claimed that the surfactants in Roundup were more harmful than the glyphosate itself. I guess that claim didn't hold up too well.
some weeds already have become resistant to it, not all but sooner or later more and more will be selected for it.
is he not aware that most celiacs sufferers are mostly white people, of northern european descent. With some ME, and indian ancestry.
Someone should.
Sorry i can't keep track of every single retard with a microphone in the US, who is this guy, how did he afford a nice suit, and in what situation is he saying this? ( Im not going to ask what his alma mater is because whatever he got taught in the past it has nothing to do with what he is saying)
