I have a feeling that payed bots/shills operate on this forum because each time a comment like this is made it gets downvoted asap.

As the poster above said: modern GMO doesn't mean "no need for pesticides": modern GMO is instead "we made plants resistant to PESTICIDES so they can withstand MORE toxins before they die so that we can kill more pests by increasing the pesticide dosage without killing the plants first".

The result is a huge increase in the amount of this toxic chemicals in the plants.
