Should we buy the Fishy Corn Car? Or do something else? Jump on this poll before the sale ends Saturday!
Poll: An anti-GMO corporate propaganda mascot is up for sale - tell us what we should do! The corporate funding for fearmongering might be starting to dry up. Evidence? The "Fishy Corn Car" is up for sale on Ebay! www.ebay.com/itm/034-World-039-s-Best-Hood-Ornament-034-Fishy-Corn-outdoor-road-worthy-sculpture-... Commissioned by a corporate-funded PR operative in DC who was funded by Dr. Bronners and the Non-GMO Project, the Fishy Corn was meant to scare people and make them upset about genetically engineered foods to advocate for GMO labeling. There was a "fearmongering fleet" of these, including a "Fishy Beet", "Fishy Soybean", and a "Fishy Tomato", but they have all been poorly maintained and rusting out - including one that is already non-operational. The first of these mascots - the Fishy Corn - is currently being auctioned at $1,076. One way or another, this is a very intriguing opportunity - and we want YOUR input on what we should do! Sale ends Saturday (tomorrow), so hop on this poll right away!
We at MAMyths are excited about this film, mostly because it's the first comprehensive feature-length look at the world of agricultural genetic engineering, and also because our badass 2015 Chicago counter-protest is featured in the movie!

What's up with the "Children's March for Humanity"? A new anti-vaccine event is going on today, organized by some of the same people who organized the March Against Monsanto. We already knew that the anti-GMO and anti-vax movements have become the same movement, so what is different about this one? This time they are putting their children out in front as political pawns because they don't have the science to back them up.
MAMyths' own Karl J. Haro von Mogel was interviewed for a story about the CMfH for a local paper in Texas, and he talked about how anti-vax parents make their decisions, and what the real harm is when people listen to the claims made by this movement.

The vaccination debate will be coming to Port Neches today. Children’s March for Humanity is a movement that urges individual choice for vaccinations. The group is opposed to vaccines. This puts the organization at odds with most of the medical community and with conventional wisdom. CMFH will hold…
"The March Against Monsanto sees organic-food activists sweeping through downtown Ottawa each spring, dispensing anti-GMO arguments aimed at the U.S.-based agro-business giant. In response, a counter-protest dubbed the March Against Myths has emerged. There might be a handful on one side, dozens on the other; as with any protest, there are both heated moments and peaceful exchanges. But this year, as the local anti-GMO movement struggles to find a leader, things appear to be changing."

March Against Monsanto Chicago wasn't too happy that we took their stage after shutting down their rally. They also deleted this libelous post when we stormed the comments. In the streets or online we'll continue to shut down the perpetuators of psuedoscience injustice!
