Probably just gone unnoticed, ignored or suppressed by mainstream media.

Edit: am I being downvoted by the same people who think voter suppression isn't a thing or pointing out China's mass incarceration of Uyghurs is propaganda? What in the fuck, Hacker News. I expected more from you people.

Its been cited 155 times. Which directly contradicts the pointless, obviously false claim that its been 'suppressed'. Combined with the paranoia about downvote reasons, and I suspect a troll.
The suppression is real, but not in a comic book conspiracy theory sense. Monsanto has been doing disinformation around glyphosate for a very long time, and stirring up controversy and character assassinations around these (admittedly speculative and unconventional) scientists and others. That's all that's needed for more orthodox members of the scientific community to start using words like "quack" and "pseudoscience".
