    Almost all of these criticisms are basically “GMOs are somehow considered tainted or something, so we need to prevent them from mixing with non-GMOs” which is an ideological premise, not based on facts.

    Regarding herbicides/pesticides: actually GMO eggplants in Bangladesh save lives because they need less spraying.

    So all that’s left is policy issues and FUD. And political problems have political solutions.
