I have a story to tell..
It's about a company called Syngenta, and the poisonous herbicide they sell called Atrazine.
Think this doesn't effect you? Think again. Trump just allowed unsafe quantities of the chemical in your food.

Syngenta developed Atrazine with the idea of controlling certain types of broad leaf weeds that plague monoculture farms (where they only grow one type of plant on a field--very common and unsustainable).
The idea was that the herbicide could promote larger yields.

Atrazine's prototype formulation needed testing, so Syngenta hired a reputable and talented scientist named Tyrone Hayes.
Little did Hayes realize how the course of this business arrangement would change his life, and our food supply, forever.

What Tyrone Hayes found was that the Atrazine herbicide would make most male frogs to flip gender to females.
But they aren't able to reproduce as female frogs, and therefore are chemically castrated at an astoundingly horrifying 75% efficacy rate.

Now, I imagine at this point you may be thinking: well, something that can't be legal, can it?
We live in a country where safety regulations are an abject failure.
So yes, it can be.
But that's not all.
Syngenta tried to ruin Hayes life and career.

So now it's 2020, much time has passed.
Regulators know the dangers of Atrazine, but we also have a tyrannical treason zombie as POSOTUS and he's deregulated the flip out of everything!
So guess what! EPA scrapped Atrazine protections for children!

At this point you're asking yourself, who is Syngenta? Who is profiting from our suffering?
Oh here's where it gets really, really rich!
China's state-owned ChemChina firm bought Syngenta for $43B in 2016.
Syngenta's profits go to the Chinese gov't!

Long story short, a company that makes an herbicide that reliably causes reproductive cancers and mass amphibian death is a Chinese state-owned firm.
American families are being subjected to poisons in our food supply whose sale profits the Chinese regime.
Angry yet? I am!
