It does answer that old canard about whether "liking" someone's request for prayers over Mr. Mitten's feline lukemia is meant as a show of support, or that they literally like the fact a cat is gravely ill.

 This guy has other weird posts on his Facebook. He usually shares pictures from that popular Bernie Sanders Dank Meme page and then from Mr. Conservative. It's really a big contrast.

Intoluene posted:It looked like a saccharine couple being all One of my friends went to high school with a girl who will post on Facebook about "brother dates." Apparently she and her brother would go out together and they would kiss each other and stuff, but they wouldn't treat it like they were dating, they would make it just be normal behavior for two Christian teenagers who truly care about their family. Their parents are probably overprotective of the kids' sexuality and so they encourage this kind of behavior because they feel more in control of it. It blows my mind though.

He's a pretty reasonable dude, but one of his friends immediately started making GBS threads down my throat and accusing me of supporting MONSANTO. It isn't hopeless! If you like, I can come back to this and respond more thoroughly when it's not currently 5:45am for me, especially because red there is full of poo poo, but in the meantime, here are a few resources where you can find some articles you're looking for. The tl;dr is that many arguments against GM crops/for GM labeling also apply to non-GM crops, including those outlined in your post up there!  Here are some other resources: Frankenfood Facts written by an actual career geneticist Genetic Literacy Project And there's some pretty great people/groups on Facebook. Look for Kavin Senpathy, SciBabe, We Love GMOs and Vaccines, Biochica (who writes Frankenfood Facts) to name a few. scorpiobean has a new favorite as of 12:15 on Feb 25, 2016 |

Agreed, they remind me of a book I have of classic literature retold on Facebook timelines. That's not how they're being marketed, however. Or it is, but through a layer of faux-ironic "Shakespeare is LAME right? Huh-ha!"
