There are no good people who promote glyphosate weed killer poison. It's a poison that's literally engineered to kill. Glyphosate doesn't "feed" anyone. It doesn't make living less expensive. It actually creates huge downstream medical costs due to cancer, hormone disorders, mineral deficiencies, gut microbiome imbalances, leaky gut syndrome and more. Glyphosate COSTS America a fortune, and the costs continue to mount. It's not a "national resource," it's a national disgrace.

Every single person promoting glyphosate as safe is a nefarious bad faith actor, following in the footsteps of a long line of "black ops" previously run by Monsanto, before Monsanto was acquired by Bayer. The level of organized, corporate-funded deception and the complete takeover of science journals, non-profits and the corporate media by glyphosate-pimping poison propagandists was truly breathtaking. It was all eventually exposed in "The Monsanto Papers."

The so-called "science" people pushing glyphosate right now are just the latest wave of propagandists, professional liars, smear artists and junk science pushers that have characterized Monsanto's weedkiller psyops for decades. Here's some fascinating true history about Monsanto's black-ops negative P.R. campaigns, its secret "Intelligence Fusion Center," its "Watch List" operations targeting journalists, astroturfing, ghostwriting deception, courtroom impersonation tactics and other nefarious methods used by glyphosate promoters over the years... all to deceive and mass poison the public with deadly weedkiller chemicals that ultimately trace back to Nazi science discoveries in nerve agent weapons like Sarin and VX.

The "Monsanto Papers" exposed a lot of all this:

Here's a brief of what was exposed through the so-called "Monsanto Papers" - internal documents that came to light primarily through Roundup cancer litigation discovery after Bayer acquired Monsanto in 2018:

The "Intelligence Fusion Center"

Monsanto created an "intelligence fusion center" to monitor and discredit journalists and activists. The most prominent target was Carey Gillam, a veteran Reuters journalist who covered the cancer risks of Roundup. Internal documents showed the company planned a series of actions to attack the credibility of Gillam's 2017 book Whitewash, including providing talking points for third parties and instructing industry allies and farmer customers on how to post negative book reviews. Monsanto also paid Google to promote search results critical of Gillam's work when people searched for her name alongside glyphosate, and considered pressuring Reuters to reassign her.

The fusion center even monitored musician Neil Young after he released an album critical of the company, evaluating his lyrics to develop a list of potential topics he might target.

The Secret French "Watch List"

In May 2019, Le Monde and France 2 revealed that PR firm Fleishman-Hillard had compiled a secret database in 2016 listing private data on about 200 journalists, politicians, and scientists, rating them on a scale of 1-5 regarding their positions on agriculture, pesticides, GMOs, and health. French prosecutors opened a criminal probe, and the French data privacy agency ultimately fined Monsanto 400,000 for secretly compiling the lists.

"Orchestrating Outcry" Against IARC

When the WHO's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified glyphosate as a probable human carcinogen in 2015, Monsanto's PR plan assigned 20 corporate staffers to prepare, with objectives including "neutralize impact," "establish public perspective on IARC," and "engage industry associations" in "outrage." The plan identified four tiers of industry partners to help discredit the cancer scientists.

Front Groups and Astroturfing

Monsanto engaged the Genetic Literacy Project (GLP) - a group whose tax filings state its mission is to "prevent legislative overreach in genetic engineering" - as a key partner. Documents showed a Monsanto executive directly asked GLP's founder to write about the IARC ruling. The GLP subsequently published over 200 articles attacking the cancer agency and the scientists involved.

Seven of the front groups named in Monsanto's documents spent $76 million over five years to push corporate messaging, including personal attacks on scientists and journalists.

Ghostwriting Scientific Papers

Monsanto employees ghostwrote scientific papers on glyphosate safety that were published under the names of outside scientists who did not work for the company. One key study relied upon by regulators worldwide for decades was quietly retracted in late 2025 over these ethical issues. A Forbes contributor named Henry I. Miller published a piece about glyphosate that was ghostwritten by Monsanto - Forbes subsequently deleted it.
