"It is astonishing to me that glyphosate products still line shelves at big box retailers considering the broad human and environmental contamination, the documented health impacts including the potential for zonulin induced leaky blood brain barriers.

Astonishing to all but those intent on harming and killing humanity. The poisoning of the planet has been long in the works. Excellent coverage.

Long in the works indeed. Poisoning is also known as sorcery, which has quite a history. The principle remains the same, but the scale has vastly increased.

I didn't know that - but makes sense!

Yes, the scale is off the charts now - so obvious. Thanks.

A portion of the modern poisoning phenomenon has a name that links it, linguistically, to the ancient poisoners. Hippocrates, in his famous oath, forbade the use of "poisons" as medicine. This part has been removed from modern versions, for obvious reasons, but then the oath is only in limited use today anyway.

(I'm referencing here a text provided by Tuft's University at https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0249%3Atext%3DJusj.%3Asection%3D1 -- Hippocrates Collected Works I. Hippocrates. W. H. S. Jones. Cambridge. Harvard University Press. 1868 -- from c. 400 B.C.)

The Greek text of this version reads, at one point, "οὐ δώσω δὲ οὐδὲ φάρμακον οὐδενὶ αἰτηθεὶς θανάσιμον, οὐδὲ ὑφηγήσομαι συμ βουλίην τοιήνδε: ὁμοίως δὲ οὐδὲ γυναικὶ πεσσὸν φθόριον δώσω", which can be translated (according to the website) "Neither will I administer a poison to anybody when asked to do so, nor will I suggest such a course."

The words rendered "a poison" are φάρμακον … θανάσιμον, "deadly medicine" (the elision is due to Greek word ordering). Transliterated they are "pharmakon thanasimon" -- "medicine deadly". The link to present usage is the prefix "pharma".

φάρμακον can mean a medicine or a poison. Hippocrates qualified it with θανάσιμον, "deadly" to emphasize that it was a poison used as a medicine. Some centuries later in the New Testament, Revelation 9:21, the word appears simply as φαρμάκων ( "pharmakōn", plural genitive of φάρμακον / "pharmakon"). There are five NT "pharma" references altogether, all relating to "poison".

The word at this place in Revelation can be translated as "sorceries". A better known reference, in Rev. 18.23, is "ἐν τῇ φαρμακείᾳ σου", "with your sorcery". Again, the "pharma" prefix. This word in a slightly different form also appears in Galatians 5:20. A third word appears in Rev. 21:8 and 22:15 in inflections of φάρμακος, "sorcerer". "Poisoner" would also be appropriate. And by the way, Rev. 21:8 contains what could be a pretty good description of the people presently poisoning the world with their pharmaceuticals.

There is a larger context to modern sorcery. The nature and scale of the poisoning began to change with the advancement of modern science and the industrialization that it enabled. Agricultural poisoning has been advancing for centuries. Industry is all about it. Industry brings us modern conveniences (typically derived from what begins as weapons development) through its chemical and biological poisons, and then offers us "medical miracle" poisons to treat the symptoms of the resulting effects! The symptoms, in turn, of those poisonings are euphemistically referred to as "side effects". And the people give thanks and praise for it all.

Yes, it's been long in the works.

Wow, thank you - for the education and clarifications (I see why you chose your handle). Really very fascinating. Best.

I wonder if for some, the reason carnivore works is because they're no longer eating glyphosphate veggies and their body is able to repair itself.

I'm plant based most of the year but I buy organic. However the organic label is not 100% fool proof.

Our oligarch overlords creating a seed bank is not a good sign. Thank you for this coverage and the links.

We should be doing all We can to strip those psychopaths presently in control of Their power to do unEthical things on a widespread scale. The tool which gives Them that power is, of course, money. An archaic and VERY dangerous tool. My work is to share awareness of how We can do that - and I would be doing the things needed Myself if I was not elderly, disabled, destitute, and homeless.

All I can do it point the way...

Beautiful compilation of the ugly dear Kitten. Wonderful job pulling all this info together 💕. Soil health is so essential and it is being toasted 😢. Thanks for putting Zack Bush link in this too, he’s a lovely one, explaining the hubris of manipulation of the food chain.

Hugs and now I’m inspired to make that compost tea when I turn the pile this week and stop using ‘Miracle’ grow too.

Should we raid the neighborhood garages and roundup all the roundup and send to toxic waste dumps? Damn there’s a lot of it everywhere 😢.

Oh Glyphosate, the nearest topic to my heart, in part thanks to which, I got lead off from the sci-fi (officially called science), for good. Thank You Zen, for helping me to grasp life totally different way!!!

Anyway, since then I lost multiple computers (picture of one of them in my ss logo...), always when enough material is out there, about the GENETIC MODIFICATIONS OF NATURE. Glyphosate plays essential role in this process. Glyphosate was actually 'developed' by a SWISS PHARMA company ~1950, then its history 'disappears' for ~20 years, and all what's left that date ~1970 as a weed killer!

Even wiki, the non-leaked version, mentions it:

"Glyphosate was first synthesized in 1950 by Swiss chemist Henry Martin, who worked for the Swiss company Cilag."

So why PHARMA came up with it, first? Hm.. The guy at Monsanto, who 'synthesized it again', as always got a medal for it. Nobel Prize committee must have been in winter sleep, not to throw in a small reward too for that 'great discovery', of slowly but surely GENETICALLY ANNIHILATING THE ONLY ENZYME ON THIS PLANET WHICH PRODUCES AROMATIC AMINO ACIDS, TYr, Phe, Trp, in plants ONLY... Well, humans DO NOT PRODUCE exactly those, and have to rely on plants, and here you go, nutritional deficiency starts, LONG TIME AGO. Great figure on this topic is Jeffrey Smith from Institute for Responsible Technology, his book, 'Genetic Roulette' opened my eyes wide!

It is a VERY LONG STORY, maybe it should be written down, again, after being deleted by Goggle+...

One important thing, a good very well educated doctor, Nuzum, just yesterday claimed, the only substance which can degrade pesticides/herbicides is humic acid. For PCB's use IODINE, he said...

Glyphosate=N-phosphonomethylGLYCINE, it is a derivative of the NO 1 human inhibiting NEUROTRANSMITTER, an amino-acid glycine. Dr. Anthony Samsel and Dr. Seneff considered glyphosate ARTIFICIAL AMINO ACID. I always argued with them that embedding it into all protein structures is not possible, EXCEPT at the -COOH portion of the GLYCINE, which THEN makes the entire protein differently charged at the N_terminal. That bond between the phosphono group and the glycine is broken down

ONLY by very few PATHOGENIC bacteria, meaning glyphosate synthesized at around 250degC (how hot humans can get???) will never leave, like the N1-Methyl-Pseudouridine from the ILLEGAL, thus CRIMIAL covid injections...

Just noticing, how strange, methyl group always at the N-terminus. WHY?

THANK YOU KITTEN for sending that BLAST from the PAST post!:)))

1974 the war on us is completely mind boggling and it’s done in plain sight. All that drug, arms, human trafficking to create huge black market monies, to wage insidious poisons on us and our animals.

I Agree, excellent and informative post with so much info, I like to keep peace with weeds too!, language and meaning, including names can sound so derogative to a lot of life forms, especially after being indoctrinated with what they are supposed to be , weeds, rats, jaggy nettles etc., If only we were taught the beauty of all life, for it truly is wonderful, in fact it's Purrrrrrrfect. thank you Kitten. Respect & X 2 All

We are indoctrinated from birth but those with eyes to see and ears to hear, know that reality is not what they are peddling, who's the predator & who's the prey etc. I Like what I perceive as your reality & Garden. Respect & Thank you.

Explains how people who caught a cold can have lasting symptoms.

Also reminds me of Offit saying about the mRNA that they are genetic shots that won't affect the genome.

How can people be so dense?
