What are conspiracy theories that you believe?

Monsanto is going to F'ing kill all of us one day, and it's going to be by accident. They're going to engineer some strain of food-crop or pesticide that will have a completely unintended consequence that escaped detection during safety-testing. The contamination is going to spread from farmland to farmland by tractor-wheels, birds, hooves, the wind, and wipe out all the food crops. This already nearly happened when some university scientists were doing research on a strain of Klebsiella. This lab ASSISTANT (ie a punk graduate student not even getting paid anything) was told to run some tests with this bacteria on sterile soil. Well, he figured "What good does running this test on sterile soil do?" so he ran it on viable soil/plants and the bacteria rendered it sterile. This stuff was about to be tested in fields, and it would have gotten out of control with disastrous consequences had he not run tests against directions and alerted his professor about it.

Actually China will get us first, due to the lack of anyone being outraged by the oops we've had the past decade. From dog food to childrens toys. Nary a blip on the radar. When it is reported, for some reason the media HYPE never arrives and stories fall by the wayside.

3 yrs and nothing done. WE all know IF that was a firearm company with a defective product congressional committees would have been called.

Maybe it's because people are secretly hoping for another shipload of toys you can melt down into MDMA....
