I didn't like the video. The real enemy is the US Justice system and science funding. Companies that do everything to profit off this are symptomatic for a systematic problem. Also they quote russian propaganda way too often for being true journalism. This makes me think this video is about ragebait and not information.

Let nothing go.

Farmers haven't wanted to plant their own seed ever since the first hybrids came out, you plant for yield and seed saved from hybrids will give varying yield, whereas all of the F1 hybrids and such will give you a more controlled yield.
Also It costs a lot of time and money to, clean,sort,dry,and store seed and if something goes wrong you won't have seed for next year.

I'm beginning to wonder why Veritasium is beating these old ass dead horses all of a sudden this shit is older then the internet and was BS back then.

Because they purchased GM seeds and aren't using their own. They pollination bullshit was just that. The farmers that were caught up did purchase their seeds and were trying to get away with it.

that's really not my takeaway.

I have seen plants sold in shops with warnings that you can't propagate them. Dunno why because it was so easy to do.

Oh, were back to this? Feel like it's been a decade since this was all in the spotlight. Haven't watched it yet, but has anything changed, or is it the same stuff as before? I actually was wondering not too long ago what happened to them because, at least for me, I didn't hear anything about them for years now.

But Bill Nye said Monsanto was the best so ????????

The farmers caught replanting seeds time and time again have been shown to intentionally skirt the rules.
