    2 seconds of Googling would have given you for example this article https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/time-to-rethink-corn/ but there are plenty more.
    Fun fact: I learned about this stuff in University in the 90s already, where professors were big fans (of and too often working for) companies like Monsanto and Bayer and even then knew about the risks of the system.

      2 more seconds of googling gives you numerous scientific american articles that are actually relevant to the GMO issue.

      https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/stop-arguing-over-gmo-crops/

      https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/why-people-oppose-gmos-even-though-science-says-they-are-safe/

      https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/genetically-engineered-crops-are-safe-and-possibly-good-for-climate-change/

      (I’ll admit I didn’t read all these due to a email register wall.) Regardless, the science is pretty much settled that GMOs are not inherently unsafe.

      Your argument that GMOs are bad because GMO corn dominates the food system is dumb. It’d be like someone saying “Corn is grown almost exclusively by farmers, therefore: farmers bad.”
