Monsanto finally makes it into Zika virus conspiracy theory
http://thespudd.com/monsanto-finally-makes-it-into-zika-virus-conspiracy-theory/"ST. LOUIS, MO Executives at the dungeon lair headquarters of Monsanto are breathing a sigh of relief today as they finally were implicated in a conspiracy theory involving the Zika Virus in Brazil.
The latest conspiracy revolves around a larvacide called Pyriproxyfen, which is actually manufactured by Sumitomo Chemical, a Japanese company.
However, at some point the chemical may have been either worked on or owned by Monsanto or something, something Monsanto is evil.
We watched for a few weeks as GMO mosquitoes, vaccines, Bill Gates and even lizard people were getting all the conspiracy coverage, said Diablo Lucifer, Monsanto CEO. Now its finally our turn. This couldnt come at a better time for us either, since people seem to be getting less and less crazy about GMOs and not mentioning us as much on social media.

The Spudd does it again!
(And, yes, Natural News, the Organic Consumers Assinine-ation, and other conspiracy folks are actually promoting this "connection" to a "Monsanto product" made by a Japanese company, that interestingly doesn't appear to be causing any problems in the rest of the world where it has been used. Hmm.)

I tried to shoot the poor thing down but you know how disappointed by reality most conspiracy advocates are, they will cling to any straw out there and move the goalposts out to Saturn if they have to.

It's amazing to me that these folks don't care if they're posts are deceitful. They "know" evil, and they're going to "call it out," even if doing so means, well, not being honest. Weird.
