The True Cost of Rockefeller Agriculture & the New Food Agenda

Ryan Matters

Shortly after World World Two, The Rockefeller Foundation set forth on a quest to bring about a transformation of world agriculture.

They did this, in part, by “socially engineering” the scientific culture to not only accept but promote the use of GMO foods and dangerous biotechnologies.

And now, they are at it again.

This new attempted policy change is outlined in a document titled “The True Cost of Food: Measuring What Matters to Transform the US Food System.

In the report, mention is made of both the Covid-19 crisis and the climate crisis, claiming that now is the opportunity we’ve been waiting for to effect “transformative change” in food production.

The report is the result of a collaboration between the Rockefeller Foundation, various academics from leading universities, the World Wildlife Fund and the True Price Foundation. Leading the analysis were members of “True Price”, a Dutch company that describes itself as a

social enterprise with the mission to realize sustainable products that are affordable to all by enabling consumers to see and voluntarily pay the true price of products they buy”.

Leading the True Price team is Michel Scholte, an alumnus of the World Economic Forum Global Shapers Network, Adrian de Groot Ruiz, also a former WEF “Global Shaper” and Herman Mulder, former Director-General at ABN AMRO, one of the world’s leading agribusiness banks!

The intended goal of the report is to uncover the “true cost” of food in the US, which is claimed to be at least $3.2 trillion per year, three times more than than $1.1 trillion that Americans spend annually on food.

Included in this “cost analysis” are things like diet-related diseases, air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions and reduced biodiversity – all reasonable concerns. However, to understand the true agenda at play, one must read past the flowery language and popular buzzwords.

As noted by author and researcher, William Engdahl:

The message is that the current American food production is to blame and that radical and costly changes are urgently needed. The difficulty in reading the report is that the language is deliberately vague and deceptive. For example one of the most damaging components of American agriculture since the 1990s has been the wholesale introduction of GMO crops—especially soybeans, corn and cotton and the highly carcinogenic Monsanto-Bayer Roundup with glyphosate. The Rockefeller report omits their direct role in fostering that devastation by their creating and promoting Monsanto and GMO for decades, knowing it was destructive.”

As Engdahl makes clear, such a report detracts attention away from the fact that most of the “costs” associated with the food industry can be traced directly to the Rockefellers themselves and their role in creating the current industrialized food chain that has not only wrought destruction on global agriculture but contributed to the explosion of chronic disease.

The adverse health effects caused by the introduction of GMO crops into modern farming and the subsequent lack of safety testing cannot be overstated. This will be detailed in part 2. [You can also read our GMO section here – ed.]

Following the classic problem-reaction-solution model, the report makes mention of the impact of Covid-19 on the current food supply chain, stating that the food system needs to become more resilient.

Food insecurity has skyrocketed during the pandemic, with more than 54 million Americans (one in six Americans), of which over 18 million are children, facing uncertainty around their next meal.”

This is ironic considering that these issues are a direct result of political decisions to institute draconian lockdowns and other nonscientific policies, NOT a virus or a disease called “Covid-19”.

And lest we forget the 2012 Rockefeller publication, Scenarios for the Future of Technology and International Development (p.18, “Lockstep”) describes many aspects of the Covid-19 drama in haunting detail.

According to the Rockefeller report, the way to construct a more resilient food supply chain is by increasing corporate involvement through a focus on industrialization and technological innovation. However, these are the very same measures that caused many of the issues being outlined.

For example, the report makes mention of “soil health” as a primary concern. However, it is precisely the widespread implementation of modern farming techniques (which involve the use of artificial fertilizers and the spraying of pesticides) – advocated for by the Rockefellers – that has depleted the soil of its nutrients in the first place.

Unsurprisingly the report makes no mention of agroecology or other regenerative methods of natural farming that seek to harness, maintain and enhance biological and ecological processes in agricultural production.

The FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations) describes agroecology as an approach to farming that:

Favours the use of natural processes, limits the use of external inputs, promotes closed cycles with minimal negative externalities and stresses the importance of local knowledge and participatory processes that develop knowledge and practice through experience, as well as scientific methods, and the need to address social inequalities”.

According to Indian environmental activist, Dr. Vandana Shiva (emphasis added):

Agroecology, which encompasses common ecological principles – organic farming, permaculture, biodynamic farming, natural farming regenerative agriculture, among many others – has been recognized as the most effective sustainable and equitable method of farming which also addresses the challenges of feeding the world in an era of climate crises.”

Back to the Rockefeller report… Which claims that one of the fundamental shifts required across the current food system is an acceleration in the development of new tools to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

As stated in the report, “this includes new financial markets related to natural capital including carbon, water, soil nitrogen and biodiversity”.

It is not stated how these new financial markets will be constructed, but this seems like a reference to the recent Rockefeller/Wallstreet-backed creation of a new asset class called a Natural Asset Company. NACs are specialized corporations…

that hold the rights to the ecosystem services produced on a given chunk of land, services like carbon sequestration or clean water”.

Journalist and researcher Whitney Webb explains the true motives behind the creation of NACs in no uncertain terms:

The ultimate goal of NACs is not sustainability or conservation – it is the financialization of nature, i.e. turning nature into a commodity that can be used to keep the current, corrupt Wall Street economy booming under the guise of protecting the environment and preventing its further degradation.”

Another method of reducing GHG emissions, according to the Rockefeller/Gates/WEF initiative, is by introducing plant-based, meat-free alternatives. Once again, the threat of “Covid-19” is subtly exploited to highlight the importance of this transition.

[meat] processing plants that continued to operate became transmission sites for the disease. Reports show approximately 300,000 excess cases of Covid-19 due to proximity to a livestock plant and approximately 5,000 deaths happened among workers in meat processing facilities.”

Here it’s worth noting that the President of the Rockefeller Foundation, Rajiv Shah, is the former Director of Agricultural Development at the Gates Foundation and that Bill Gates is personally invested in Impossible Foods, Memphis Meats and Beyond Meats – companies that produce synthetic meat and dairy products from plants, using laboratory techniques including gene editing.

In Gates’ 2021 book How to Avoid a Climate Disaster he advocates for the replacement of beef with fake meat. In a recent interview with MIT technology review, he said that people’s behaviors should change for them to learn to like fake meat, and if that doesn’t work, appropriate regulations should be put in place.

This agricultural transformation advocated for by Gates, the Rockefellers and the WEF, one that seeks to increase industrialization, patentable crops and the consumption of lab-grown “meat”, stems in part, from the mechanical mind and its reductionist theory of food.

The “reductionist” view of food tells us that food is digested in the body where it’s broken down into its constituent parts, sent to different areas of the body and, ultimately, used as “fuel” for the body to burn.

Much emphasis is put on the caloric content of food, rather than its nutritional value or its other medicinal properties/benefits. This view stems from our scientific establishment which views the body as nothing more than a complex “machine”.

Furthermore, as is evident, the transhumanists seek to alter our perception of food from something that is grown naturally in the earth beneath our feet to something that is synthetically engineered in laboratories.

Companies like Beyond Meat and Impossible Burger have raised millions of dollars, promoting their concoctions on the basis of claims that “Lab-grown meat will replicate the taste and consistency of traditional meat”.

If taste alone doesn’t hook people in, they play the “climate change” card, touting the consumption of fake meat as “necessary” for us to avoid an environmental disaster.

Ironically, research indicates that the production of lab-cultured meat could require more energy than the preparation of regular meat. Adding to this irony is the fact that Gates, who lives in a 66,000-square-foot mansion and travels in a private jet, is himself a carbon super-emitter.

In 2019, the USDA and FDA announced a regulatory framework for lab-grown meat, a move that elated the fake-meat industry. Why would synthetic meat producers be happy about this? Kelsey Piper, in an article for Vox, gives us the answer:

…consumer confidence is absolutely critical. If people don’t believe that cell-based meat products are safe, regulated, and healthy, then they’ll stick with slaughtered meat”.

In other words, no matter how fraudulent, an “FDA Approved” badge constitutes an irreplaceable marketing tool. For example, data indicate that Covid-19 vaccination rates increased after the vaccines were given full FDA approval.

With a regulatory framework in place, startups are working to build out the technological infrastructure that will allow for the production of lab-grown meat at scale. The next step in this “transhumanist tiptoe” will be “food” created using nanotechnology. As stated by author and researcher Aaron Franz*

Nanotech could take the atoms from an otherwise useless source and turn it into something useful. You could turn dirt directly into food with nanotech.”

Related to this is the developing science of “molecular manufacturing”, which may be defined as “the hypothetical future use of reprogrammable nanoscale ‘assemblers’ to build products atom by atom”.

Franz explains the transhumanist mindset behind the development of such a technology:

“Molecular manufacturing is hailed by transhumanists as a way to conquer scarcity. In a scarcity-free world people would be able to concentrate on things other than survival.”[1]

However, a quick search through the scientific literature indicates that the use of molecular manufacturing in food production goes far beyond alleviating “scarcity” and may have more to do with altering the structure and function of the body itself. For example, a 2015 review paper states that (emphasis added):

The potential benefits of utilizing nanomaterials in food are improved bioavailability, antimicrobial effects, enhanced sensory acceptance and targeted delivery of bioactive compounds.”

Another review published in the American Journal of Food Technology makes mention of “nanotechnology-based biosensors” for the detection of food-borne pathogens. Shades of the DARPA/NIH brainchild, Profusa, and their research into developing an injectable biosensor that can “detect future pandemics”.

Once again, “public acceptance” is cited as a major hurdle to the introduction of food created using nanotechnology, and therefore one can reasonably predict to see further regulatory frameworks created specifically for such products.

FOOD AS INFORMATION

Despite the reductionist, body-as-a-machine doctrine expounded by the transhumanists, new research argues that food is a form of information and that this information interacts directly with our genetic infrastructure, effecting epigenetic changes by turning on and off various genes – “You are what you eat”, as the old adage goes.

“Epigenetics” refers to the science of how cells control gene activity without changing the DNA sequence. Our food and our environment are two important factors that drive epigenetic changes.

One of the primary epigenetic mechanisms is DNA methylation – a process that regulates gene expression by altering protein activity and/or inhibiting the binding of transcription factors.

Abnormal DNA methylation is observed in cancer patients and as researchers note, “Dietary nutrient intake and bioactive food components are essential environmental factors that may influence DNA methylation”. The discovery of epigenetics revealed the profound importance of food intake on disease risk and phenotypic expression.

But DNA methylation is not the only mechanism by which food interacts with our DNA. All food, whether of plant or animal origin, contains non-coding RNA that can survive digestion to affect profound changes in the expression of our genes. These RNAs are shuttled in virus-sized (!) “microvesicles” (also called “exosomes”). A groundbreaking study published in 2011 found that exogenous plant micro RNAs could regulate gene expression changes in humans.

These findings may extend the role of exosomes to that of interspecies communication, thereby highlighting the significance of food as a source of information transfer, affecting the body on a nutritional, energetic and genetic level.

Another source of information comes from the microbes that accompany most plant foods. The “microbiome” as it’s termed refers to the collective microbial (fungal, bacterial, etc) content of our body, much of which is found in the gut.

Recent discoveries have illuminated the importance of the microbiome and its role in nearly every chronic disease from depression to cardiovascular disease.

Beneficial microbes help to regulate bowel pH, produce vitamins, maintain mucosal integrity, regulate immune function, reduce inflammation, and ferment complex carbohydrates that are normally inaccessible to human digestion.

Microbes represent a profound “store” of information, relayed to us through the food we eat. Fermented foods (such as kimchi) are thus irreplaceable sources of beneficial bacteria that help to promote optimal bowel conditions, reduce disease risk and restore balance to a microbiome decimated by overly processed foods, glyphosates and other toxins common to modern-day life.

Understanding food as more than merely a source of energy allows us to comprehend the magnitude of the agenda that seeks to promote the consumption of genetically modified, synthetically produced, test-tube mulch cooked-up in corporate laboratories.

With this firmly in mind, we are now prepared to dive into the history of GMOs and modern “agribusiness”, with an emphasis on highlighting the role of the Rockefellers and other wealthy elite actors.

The ironic thing is that if you look into it, ecological, low-tech agriculture is actually much cheaper in production. A lot is just about making the right plan and right decisions and then letting nature do most of the work. If you don’t believe that, make a web search for Masanobu Fukuoka. The whole so-called modern agriculture is just a huge heap of junk, a huge machinery that was invented to make money from agriculture.

Just imagine if we had public gardens where everyone could plant and harvest or where helping out with manual work entitled one to take a share of the harvest (that would be the kind of true share-conomy we’d need): The big food companies, the big agro-chemistry companies and the big agro-technology companies would be out of business. No one in that field cares about providing healthy and safe food, it’s only about money.

If you have access to a patch of land, try growing at least some veggies yourself. It’s actually easier than one thinks.

Gosh it was so nice when humans just acted like humans, and animals acted like animals, and we all knew the difference. Now most of the next generation can’t even deside what sex(if any) they are. People are treated like animals ( we have all become test subjects with no right to know what’s what). Animals have their own protection agencies(PETA or PEMA, whatever).

The way to obtain and increase control over a mass democracy which in itself is characterized by an obsessive need of constant change and constant destruction, to mold that society as you wish, is to keep that society constantly mobile. The classical means to mobilize a whole society is to engage in warfare. Hence, aside classical war, new wars like the alleged human caused climate change is thé vessel (warfare against fossil fuels, the alleged threat of extinction) to legitimize and push your plans, and the alleged threats of pandemics (warfare against a virus) is another vessel of war (which is why the plutocracy and the bureaucratic elites have been so obsessed with pandemics and viruses for some decades).

In that sense, the plutocracy and the bureaucratic elites are utilizing the situation of a society obsessed with change, obsessed with destruction, directing it in the way they seem fit. They could not impose anything on the mass democracies if these where not unstable and structurally directionless themselves, and if the democratic people themselves would not have turned their societies into hyper-regulated mass-man societies, regulated and government controlled without historical precedent.

In the report, mention is made of both the Covid-19 crisis and the climate crisis, claiming that now is the opportunity we’ve been waiting for

Yes, opportunity in the sense of the mobilizing warfare which they themselves have been pushing and working on for decades.

Ironically the plutocracy and the bureaucratic elite are doing what the democratic people themselves have been doing for over 150 years, funding, activism, publicity, agitating, mobilizing, and REGULATING, though on a bigger visionary level. The elites have taken over the tactics of the democratic people, sidelining them gradually as the egalitarian modern democratic people have formerly sidelined elites. A piece of ones own cake? After the revolt of the masses, the revolt of elites?

Next time you are calling for change, you might reflect on what you are doing… others have copied your strategy.

Remember: keep things mobile.

The democratic societies put healthcare in the hands of the state, by means of which they introduced state control, lack of diversity and consequently monopoly.
Anti-vaxxers are said be generally less educated, which is likely, the democracies put education in the hands of the state too, thus the educated are educated by the state, the less educated still retain a natural position, being less in the grip of the state.

It makes sense that the plutocracy takes over everything which the democratic people have put in the hands of the state and the national bureaucratic elites, and consequently supra-national bureaucratic elites.

I’m vegan because I can’t afford real meat. If I could grow my own responsibly, I would allow myself maybe a card-deck-sized portion every two or three days– because that is all the meat I need or want unless my other nutritional sources are poisoning me. Might be different for our Inuit brothers; I have only my own euro-trash experience to go by.
It is horribly ineffective and therefore pointless to make this an ethical issue. Larger brain size and binocular vision are predator adaptions. Nature is what it is. Focus on both plant-sourced and animal-sourced food quality, as the author does, and we may get some attention.

I don’t know how it is elsewhere in the world, but I know for a fact that when you see cows grazing on a hillside here in the southeastern US, you are looking at a landowner’s hobby, or his tax break, or the private production of someone who knows better than to eat what emerges from the meat factory barns where the nation’s animal flesh is fattened. “Ag-gag” laws that make it criminal to film factory barn practices have been defeated or found unconstitutional in all but seven US states: In those seven states you can still be prosecuted for filming the inside of a meat factory*. Wonder why the industry spends millions in every state to make sure we don’t know what happens in their barns? I’ll bet it’s not so much the cruelty as the product they don’t want us to know about.

That said, most vegans I connect with continue to consume massive and poisonous amounts of the industrial fillers that have replaced nutrition in the western diet: sugar, fat, salt, and doctored carbs. I’ve met my share of waddling, diabetic vegans. A human being will consume a carbohydrate with the dietary value of styrofoam as long as it is dosed with plenty of salt, fat, and sugar**. 

Knowing this to be the case, Big Food removes the nutrition from human food and replaces it with the cheap fillers we crave. The siphoned nutrition is probably mostly used to enrich livestock food, because in profit-driven agriculture, it actually matters whether hogs are healthy not.
It is quite okay for humans to consume three times the calories they can use in a desperate attempt to get useful nutrients from the industrial excreta they are addicted to. In fact, it’s a win-win-win strategy for Big Food, Big Pharma, and the healthcare prevention industry… and whaddaya know? it makes industrial meat products, such as they are, the most nutritious thing the average person eats in a week.

This is true of Any diet:

  • If you don’t have to wash dirt off most of the food you eat, most of your food is less nutritious than dirt.
  • If you don’t know how it was raised and what it was fed, you might as well be eating rat meat, and buddy, you just might be.
  • The amount of time, effort, and understanding you spend selecting and preparing your food is the foundation of your mental, emotional, and physical house.

Abstract

In the mammalian genome, DNA methylation is an epigenetic mechanism involving the transfer of a methyl group onto the C5 position of the cytosine to form 5-methylcytosine. DNA methylation regulates gene expression by recruiting proteins involved in gene repression or by inhibiting the binding of transcription factor(s) to DNA. During development, the pattern of DNA methylation in the genome changes as a result of a dynamic process involving both de novo DNA methylation and demethylation. As a consequence, differentiated cells develop a stable and unique DNA methylation pattern that regulates tissue-specific gene transcription. In this chapter, we will review the process of DNA methylation and demethylation in the nervous system. We will describe the DNA (de)methylation machinery and its association with other epigenetic mechanisms such as histone modifications and noncoding RNAs. Intriguingly, postmitotic neurons still express DNA methyltransferases and components involved in DNA demethylation. Moreover, neuronal activity can modulate their pattern of DNA methylation in response to physiological and environmental stimuli. The precise regulation of DNA methylation is essential for normal cognitive function. Indeed, when DNA methylation is altered as a result of developmental mutations or environmental risk factors, such as drug exposure and neural injury, mental impairment is a common side effect. The investigation into DNA methylation continues to show a rich and complex picture about epigenetic gene regulation in the central nervous system and provides possible therapeutic targets for the treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders.

This is what the article linked to regarding “DNA methylation.” Yes, of course, it’s incomprehensible to someone like me who has no background in DNA Science.

But I think there’s something beyond incomprehension by the noninitiated going on. This Abstract is a word salad in that at various points it introduces concepts for which no foundation has been laid – such as “demethylation.” In other words, beyond the necessity of having to create novel terminology to adequately explain the Science, novel arrangements of words are being used to unnecessarily complicate the subject.

I realize it’s only an Abstract – but shouldn’t an Abstract have an internal logic? This is the sort of cliquish excess which makes independent research by non-scientists almost impossible. So when we’re told to offer evidence to back up our opinions, how can we?

(BTW, I feel safe offering such a convoluted comment because, four days into it, nobody is paying attention to this article any longer.)

For folk who are working to develop and increase organic farming the elephant in the room is land “ownership”. Control of agriculture means control of land use. Whose land is it anyway? The deadly “war on soil” that has been waged by industrial/chemical methods has its origins partly in wartime chemical production for explosives. Combined with the need to feed a growing urban landless class, the origins of cheap and unhealthy food are an industrial solution to issues created by the industrial revolution.
Wherever agriculture is viewed simply as an economic activity then there are problems.
Raising crops and animals is a social and cultural activity as well but this cannot be measured by scientists who are concerned only with the input/output figures.
Small mixed family/social farms are the best way to empower the people with healthy food and meaningful work. Try Chris Smaje’s book on this topic, or visit an organic farm and feel the difference.

The decision not to eat the flesh, muscle, skin, blood, bones and milk (not to mention the cocktail of agricultural chemicals) of sentient creatures, is first and foremost, an ethical decision.
The health benefits of not eating these ‘products’ is a karmic gift, so to speak.
Lab grown meat is not the same as plant ‘meat’ made from legumes, mycoprotein, grain or carbohydrates.
That’s like comparing cheese to apple juice.
One hundred billion animals slaughtered or suffocated every year for a protein addiction is unsustainable cruel and self destructive.

Johnny, i dont know what ethical or moral means. When i read corporate employed ‘ethicists’ claiming it’s ethical to inject the young with unsafe injections, and other such ethics based decisions it sounds like a word tacked on to santify such decisions. And Meat is Meat. To call stuff grown in vats, or made from plants MEAT is changing the words meaning with intention to deceive.
I’m a meat eater. When young we used to say grace before meals, thank the animal that gave up it’s life for our benefit, and thank The Lord for our food.
Bill Gates seems to think we should slaughter those one billion to help stave-off climate change. We cant just switch to eating his vat groan ‘meats’ and let all those animals run free, to procreate and grow in numbers like humans. It’s just not on.
If we’re going to slaughter them, might as well eat them.

New South Wales teachers and students are to be subject to a testing regime that requires them to ‘voluntarily’ submit to two rapid antigen tests (RATS) each week.
2022 – The Year of Test. Test. Test. (Test-dependent ‘pandemic’)…
While most were distracted by the “Crumbling Narrative” Omicron, conveniently a rapidly spreading ‘variant’, provides cover for the implementation of a constant testing regime…

Why Students ? Well they’re likely to make a game of it ? Time away from lessons ? Maybe it’ll be easier to win adults to accept the testing regime through their kids. ?

And teachers will be required to wear ‘Surgical masks’, the first time what masks are acceptable has been stipulated… (NB. “Surgical masks’ – a few mentions of these lately makes me wonder if they are about to gravitate to Center Stage.)…

A very good and comprehensive article on the subject with which it now “continues”. Engdahl calls the Rockefeller Report NLP, but it is simply a basic premise that must be understood in its monstrosity:

They simply turn the justification principle around!

In the logic of the corporations not THEY fail at the natural reality, but it fails at them!

Thus from their point of view not the so-called vaccines are bad, because they harm humans, but humans are bad, because they do not stand them!

Annoying with all this that there are “still” plants and remedies of natural origin against illnesses. Nature and its remedies and nutrients must be erased from the world and from memory, so that genetic experiments become inevitable and without alternatives – and everyone feels bad who does not tolerate them.

This, unfortunately, is the logic they have been using on us for a long time, and the easy accessibility and cheapness has long seduced the world into exchanging the valuable things for the junk they offer. It is the old game of luring natives to trade their values for glass beads, and now they are setting out for the Endsieg.

What’s Wrong With GMOs

Because of Geo Bush’s “substantial equivalence” executive order there are NO rules/regulations governing GMOs (AFAIK).

Created in a substantially different manner than hybridized plants, GMO plants involve inserting foreign genes into a plant– often with a gene “cannon” that blasts bacteria and DNA segments. The results wd be impossible by plant reproduction. Hence are radically different than normal hybridized plant breeding.

Recombinant-Bovine-Growth-Hormone-treated cows reduces the cow’s lifespan and causes inflammation in humans consuming the milk. Also an increase in human IGF-1 and in cancer. 

Monsanto’s GMO hormone, rBGH, is called Posilac. There is a residue in the milk; it causes deformed calves; rats fed rBGH milk get cancerous tumors. Not to worry– US Pure Food & Drug Act added a subsection that cancerous tumors in rats don’t indicate that a product is unsafe for human consumption! You understand there was no study, just an assertion.

The above tiny bit is from Wm Engdahl’s book, Seeds of Destruction. I am steeped in more than 50 years of anger from following the murderous career of TPTB. Even so, I found the book shocking.

In bygone eras, of course, anybody who deviated from ‘the norm’ was cast out.
But in today’s relatively ‘individualistic’ times, those who most deviate from all that is normal, decent and humane – perhaps purely for fun, or out of sheer boredom – are so wealthy that they can buy their way into ‘the norm’, and ensure that they are not cast out.

This sick way of behaving sometimes works for a while, but it ends up on the chopping block.
Individualism still has some way to go before it gets it right…

Sadly, this is not new. DDT and other chemical poisons were first recognized as dangerous in 1940s and was the purported cause of Polio:

http://www.harvoa.org/polio/overview.htm

“In 1945, against the advice of investigators who had studied the pharmacology of the compound and found it dangerous for all forms of life, DDT (chlorophenoethane, dichlorodiphenyl-trichloroethane) was released in the United States and other countries for general use by the public as an insecticide.”

In the early-1950s DDT distribution started being shifted out of the U.S. and into developing nations and the US Polio scourge faded. Was Dr. Salk and his “vaccine” just a cover-up? The lies have not subsided on the DDT issue yet.

So-called “Roundup-Ready” seeds have been a point of contention since their inception. Fungicides such as Benlate were linked to crop damage and birth defects in the 1980’s (after 30 years of use). Not to mention that connections to pharma and pesticides go on and on.

Dis-information has been the true plague for ages. Hopefully more and more will realize they were conditioned and manipulated to accept the lies their entire lives.  It’s a slow process.

There are several issues involved here with GMO crops being just one. The problem revolves around the interaction of capitalism and farming and the difficult of solving it using purely capitalist friendly solutions. Even this is confusing because a farm obviously represents capital being deployed to generate income but I’d content there’s actually a huge difference between a family farm — a farm designed to be sustainable in the long term — and an agribusiness designed to extract as much value from the land as possible. For the argibusiness long term sustainability isn’t that important, what matter is to exploit and exhaust the resources before (effectively) moving on. This might mean in our state growing water intensive crops in dry areas, relying on an ever lowering water table to provide the water regardless of the long term damage to the environment. In another state it might be the close confinement of livestock, using unnatural feeding processes to extract the fastest grown rates and leaving the livestock’s waste to fester in pools to the detriment of the environment. Ultimately it comes down to unrealistic expectations of return on investment caused by an inflationary asset value spiral — farmers are coerced into unsustainable farming techniques because they can’t afford to say ‘no’.

One way of solving this problem is a combination of persuading us to eat less in general and eat more artificial foodstuffs. Its the same approach that gets us to reduce domestic energy consumption (a laudable goal) while charging significantly more for the smaller amount we do use. Adding in mixtures of levies and subsidies provides plenty of opportunities for sharp operators to move in with offers of creative solutions, none that actually solve anything but all planning to use the ‘green’ de-facto slush fund to their advantage. Its the capitalist approach — every problem has a solution that involves providing opportunities for creative finance.

As for GMO, it sound ominous and, used incorrectly, its a menace. Humans have been modifying plants and animals to better suit their purposes for thousands of years. Selective breeding is a form of GMO. Modern techniques just allow faster rurnaround. However, just like any other technique, it will get misused in the search for profit with “Roundup Ready” being the poster child for such abuse. Despite this abuse there’s plenty of examples of how GMO can be used to benefit crop yields — like everything, though, its got to be thought through holistically, there really is no such thing as “someone else’s problem”.

“Selective breading” is not a form of GM.
Your entire last paragraph is a bridge to the acceptance of GM foods with their decreased nutritional content. their destruction of soil health. Quantity (crop yields ) is pursued at the expense of quality.
Corporation propaganda promotes the claim that manipulating plant genes is the same as selective breeding. Dont fall for it.

Excellent article to bring people’s attention to the importance of eating food which is vibrant and alive… Nice balance of the shady reductionist corporate ‘death food’ and touching in with the interconnectedness of all things, and that the food we consume has it’s own intelligence and is interacting with the genetics of the human body… Something that Shamans, Yogis, Daoists etc have known for millenia.. No point in being ‘awake’ to the covid game and continuing to consume their poison on a daily basis… Get growing.

Glad that Dr Vandana Shiva is mentioned in this article also… An absolute dynamo of a woman and for me the perfect balance of scientific and spiritual warrior who speaks with absolute clarity, precision and authority on the corporate food agenda and also our relationship with the Earth Mother and wider cosmos.. Profound sense of humour to embrace it all and cut through the BS..

This is a great 30 minute interview with her if you aren’t familar, or if you already are… As well as bring a fountain of wisdom and insight, for me she offers a powerful Presence to reflect upon and resonate with, so as to remember the power and intelligence that’s within us all, and which must be remembered and embodied now, if we are to turn this around..

At the core of the assault on the natural order, the promotion of a transhumanist eugenic agenda you find the Rockefeller family, their acolytes like Bill Gates, institutions like Johns Hopkins University, the United Nations and a plethora of entitles and organizations pushing their New World Order agenda. Under the guise of “progress” advanced science and technology these megalomaniacal usurpers are pushing Frankenfoods, toxic fertilizers, lab created meats, altering the earth’s electromagnetic frequencies, the terra-formation of the planet, creation of cross species humans, hybrids and chimeras they call designer babies, augmented humanity.
These miscreants are pushing a materialistic cosmology and are hellbent on undermining and negating the animating spirit that permeates the universe. We are in a spiritual war, it is not about organized religion or dogma, it’s about the dynamic life force that sustains us all. There can be no neutrality.

A recent article appeared on this site which cited relevant UN research. That does not automatically imply ‘reliance’ on UN ‘plans’.

The purpose of the 4th Industrial revolution is to stymie the development of energy resources and to control Population and growth and instigate rapid population decline”.

Food is of course Fuel for we human beings and the sabotage of energy resources seems is not limited to merely Nuclear energy and hydrocarbons. Engdall quoted in the article recently asked this question. “Why Do NATO States Commit Energy Hara Kiri ?”
Norman E. Borlaug won the Nobel prize for his work on Dwarf Corn varieties, he published this paper in 2000.

“Thirty years ago, in my acceptance speech for the Nobel Peace Prize, I said that the Green Revolution had won a temporary success in man’s war against hunger, which if fully implemented, could provide sufficient food for humankind through the end of the 20th century. But I warned that unless the frightening power of human reproduction was curbed, the success of the Green Revolution would only be ephemeral.
I now say that the world has the technology that is either available or well advanced in the research pipeline to feed a population of 10 billion people. The more pertinent question today is: Will farmers and ranchers will be permitted to use this new technology?”

Robert Zubrin Author of Merchants of despair wrote this article in 2012
The Population Control Holocaust
“There is a single ideological current running through a seemingly disparate collection of noxious modern political and scientific movements, ranging from militarism, imperialism, racism, xenophobia, and radical environmentalism, to socialism, Nazism, and totalitarian communism. This is the ideology of antihumanism: ”

I would suggest that Transhumanism is a sort of Hybrid misanthropy. On GMO it is the patents and inability of farmers to set aside seed stock from the harvest. The Model of Owning nothing and being happy is a sort of Software as a service innovation extending to your Genome as a service.

“When discovering the structure of DNA, Francis Crick famously announced to his drinking companions in a Cambridge tavern that he had discovered the ‘secret of “life”. The director of

his Institute, Max Perutz, was rather more careful than Crick when he

said that DNA was the ‘score of life’.

That is more correct since a musical

score does nothing until it is played. DNA does nothing until activated

to do so.

pp.35 “Dance to the Tune of Life: Biological Relativity 1st Edition, by Denis Noble
The idea of a Musical Score, as opposed to a fixed recipe in Denis Noble’s book, is I think a good conceptual comparison of two approaches to the same set of Data, of course, there are many potentials between the two categories of approach.

Douthwaite The Ecology of Money (Schumacher Briefing, 4)
Douthwaite’s briefing has a foreword by Bernard Leitaer.
“Do I agree with all the ideas that are presented here? Even Douthwaite admits that he doesn’t “expect everyone to agree with the conclusions he has reached”. For instance, although I agree with him on the importance of linking monetary issues to energy sustainability, I question the viability of the means he proposes. (Why not include his “Energy-Backed Currency Units” (ebcu) as part of a basket of commodities and services backing the currency – rather than being the exclusive backing of currency?”

Hilary Putnam has this to say about being careful not to throw the baby out with the bathwater. By which I mean all GMO’s are not necessarily harmful and All scientists who have had Rockerfeller sponsorship are off necessity incapable of making a positive contribution.

One of the WEF’s pet projects is self-fertilising crops. Some plants do this naturally but they want to “encourage” others to follow suit. Encourage means GMOs of course.

Attitude to GMOs is a good way to detect a fake ‘green’. The likes of Monbiot and Thunberg are suspiciously quiet on the issue. My fundamental objection to GMOs -aside from monetising seeds – is that the body cannot recognise what they are and it puts us in an “all defenses down” situation… funnily enough as do vaccines. ,

Self-fertilisng life-forms are the perfect circular economy. Oligarchs don’t have to put any of their precious resources into nurturing them. They openly plan it for humans as well with people in their pods in their stack-and-pack apartment blocks drinking their own recycled effluent. Perhaps one day we can drink VR water and do away with this troublesome physicality altogether!

I have to say this is worrying. As a vegetarian and long-time eater of products from Quorn, McCartney, and an increasing number of lesser-know alternatives I’m concerned about content. What is really in them? I could never go back to eating meat from slaughtered animals yet I have no idea what morals are involved in producing meat alternatives.

My immediate worry is to get the vaccination problem, especially of children, addressed.

Learn to prepare those products yourself, using wholesome natural ingredients.
Grow as much of your own food yourself as possible.
Using regenerative & sustainable methods.

I do vermicomposting and it is so easy to make you own high-grade “soils” (vermicast), and then grow your own high-quality foods.

I’m vegetarian, and I used to rely on the Big Food manufactured products.
But often times the difference between sustainable & non-sustainable, healthy & unhealthy, is simply volume.
Often, the more volume of something that is made the more consideration merely for profit & efficiency comes into play.
Often leading to inattention to the original underlying principles of those products.

Kellogg’s is a great example.
It was founded by a guy with intents of wholesomeness & clean living.
John Harvey Kellogg promoted progressive health reform, particularly in the second phase of the clean living movement. He wrote extensively on science and health. His approach to “biologic living” combined scientific knowledge with Adventist beliefs, promoting health reform, and temperance.

But the company soon had transformed merely to a volume based business, eventually abandoning many of the principles of its Founder.
A common theme of “success”.

Mass production also usually means more & more shortcuts.
And more & more processing, refining, stabilizing, preserving, etc.

Where you have growing levels & systems of dependence, you increasingly have an absence of independence.
There are massive power & profit motives behind systems of growing dependence.

The exact same problems above can also be applied to the Big Meat industry.

Making your own veggie and/or mushroom burgers is so easy.

The continued growth of Big Everything is leading to more & more problems.
Too many people are willingly surrendering way too much personal power & sovereignty.

Much of what is spun as “convenience” is truly just a grab for power over others.
One of Big Corporate’s primary goals is to get more people more reliant on them.

Kellogg dedicated the last 30 years of his life to promoting eugenics. He co-founded the Race Betterment Foundation, co-organized several National Conferences on Race Betterment and attempted to create a ‘eugenics registry’. Alongside discouraging ‘racial mixing’, Kellogg was in favor of sterilizing ‘mentally defective persons’, promoting a eugenics agenda while working on the Michigan Board of Health and helping to enact authorization to sterilize those deemed ‘mentally defective’ into state laws during his tenure.

And

Kellogg was a skilled surgeon, who often donated his services to indigent patients at his clinic. Although generally against unnecessary surgery to treat diseases, in his Plain Facts for Old And Young he advocated circumcision as a remedy for “local uncleanliness” (which he thought could lead to “unchastity”),phimosis,and “in small boys”, masturbation.

A worthy prototype for Billy Eugenics Gates.

I’m certainly no cheerleader for everything John Harvey Kellogg, I was simply pointing out the evolution of the Kellogg’s company, specifically with regards to more holistic production & natural health.
Please don’t read any more into my comment than was actually there.

BTW – by “race” Kellogg was referring to the human race.
By “Eugenics” Kellogg was referring to biologic information.

Beware relying too much on others people’s opinions in regards to the works & thoughts of someone else.
I have read some of Kellogg’s works, and have not encountered any calls for racial debasement (see more about this at end).

Too many people simply see the word “race” and are so quick to get their panties all in a bunch. just assuming the worst, without any further examination and/or analysis.

For the past decade I have been experimenting intensively with plants, and soils, and microorganisms, and have seen both the “nurture” and “Nature” aspects and mechanisms in action.
In regards to the “Eugenics” of Kellogg, I don’t see a problem with promoting the concept of striving for better genes, via better natural practices.
I’ve seen that in action.
I’ve watched how my attentiveness to better natural growing practices have led to better plants, which created better seeds, which created better plants, etc.
But I certainly don’t call for the erasure of equal protections of everyone.

If you can find works directly from Kellogg that promotes the eradication of certain peoples, I’ll read those works and even thank & credit you for enlightening me.
But I haven’t come across anything like that (minus the assumption of others, whom haven’t directly read his works).

And again, I’m certainly no cheerleader for Kellogg.
I’m only providing this additional info for sake of reference & accuracy.
AND AGAIN, MY ORIGINAL POST WAS ONLY ABOUT THE EVOLUTION OF THE KELLOGG’S COMPANY.

“Kellogg combined his belief in euthenics, the improvement of human functioning by improvement of living conditions”

Overall, Kellogg was worried about the ultimate fate of the human race,” said Dr. Brian C. Wilson

Kellogg believed “if we continued on with our bad habits, we would eventually become extinct, potentially,” Wilson said.

“when it came to African Americans. He rejected segregation of blacks at his Sanitarium, where African American doctors and nurses were trained. He and his wife, Ella Eaton, fostered more than 40 children, among them African Americans and children from Latin America.”

People need to be more careful about assuming too much.
It’s far to easy to carelessly criticize others, especially when they’re not around to defend themselves.

Just because something is written about someone doesn’t mean it is true.
I always urge people to be cautious about historical revisionism.

This world is so goddamned angry, everyone just wants to argue & gripe about every single thing.
The art of intelligent & civil conversation is dead.
The constant drive for total divisiveness on every single thing is destroying society.
Even going out of their way to invest problems that don’t exist in the first place, just so they have something to bitch about.
And that is so sad.

EVERY SINGLE PERSON I KNOW, AS HUMANS, HAVE FLAWS, AND CAN THEREFOR BE CRITICIZED FOR THOSE FLAWS.
WHERE YOU THROW CRITICISMS AT OTHERS, OTHERS CAN DO THE EXACT SAME TO YOU.
JUDGE THYSELF FIRST.

To make Quorn’s mycoprotein, we don’t start with livestock, we take a natural, nutritious fungus that grows in the soil. This fungus is known as Fusarium venenatum.

We then use the age-old process of fermentation – the same process used to create bread, beer and yoghurt – to grow Quorn’s mycoprotein.
