3:45 pm
want to get through your latest book because you wise and i would say- your attacks not only mon sun so and the lights but also others- you. attack the what you describe as the billionaire dictators especially a one man i should say bill gates who- you describe as the christopher columbus i'm i'm putting you of modern times and that's not a compliment obviously- whose mission is to impose quote unquote directly modified organisms. and digital dictators to small farmers across the world bill gates who's donated billions to improve public health in poor countries and so on you're saying. essentially he's a dictator and he's there not to help but to make people pour more dependent what bill gates is actually continuing the work of monsanto- becauause monsanto had so many movements and we
3:46 pm
hold up my tribunal on monsanto- a buyout what happened central but- when bill gates pours money into africa for feeding the poor in africa and preventing famine what's he doing is pushing the failed green revolution is pushing chemicals pushing gmos. pushing buttons and not pushing new knowingly or he thinks it's a good thing and he may be wrong because that's not the same thing there is enough evidence of. what it does is that enough. letters to him from. about from govevernments of africa to see this is not the way to go to the united nations except agroecology working with ecological systems as the best way to go.o. out you bill gates is trying very hard to shift the patenting issue now to digital so you just take a dynamic map. and so myy inventioion you d don't create a seat seed is self organized self making. an evolution in community. just my read making
3:47 pm
a map of genom and you have no idea. what the c. does and this is something is pushing very very hard my book recalled how he finance did seek- i've talked about how he's pirated. seeds we have saved that story it's sold and floods and he says invention thiss bio piracy is a bit like columbus the columbus is suppose have discovered america. mainly basically went as a pirate why do i call him today's columbus because he's carving out new colonies. software should have stayed open software series that you say he has a strategy and the various- strategy which you describe as philanthropy capitalism. is in the far as enterprise and so you're not saying he's using the wrong methods he's pursuing. the wrong goal with self interest you also- attack mark zuckerberg the founder of facebook saying they're all
3:48 pm
linked together i mean this reeks a bit ofof conspiriracy theoeories it well youou know. y book. is based on the new evidence that's coming out all you have to do is the opel see the ownership and i have data. in the book on how this common ownership we stopped mark zuckerberg from t trying to gett into indiaian agrgriculture. its a big globalization of people who believe in the opening tonight did you want to do. wewell in basic what the is they mind the data. from the famas. and didn't run now all over the is debate. on private issues on the data mining this s new books on the form of capitalism which is available capitalism where you basically have turned human beings into your new raw material. bill gates does both he takes living resources on our seeds and biodiversity mines it. in two data and once ownership along with his friends and mark zuckerberg minenes you'll determine your
3:49 pm
behaviors and turns it into the raw material both of corporate world for selling things which is why strange advertisements pop up after you've sent a message to a friend. end manipulating elections i have a chapter in the book on the hijack of democracy. you have enough data on what happened with facebook selling data to cambridge analytica and how we are popping up with artificial intelligence leaders this is a major threat to democracy so this is where you're calling them billionaire dictators because you think they're not. helping democracy but actually threatening and even killing it i mean isn't this yet i have much. i have grown up in in india. that post independence i've grown up in in india that has absolutely no corporations i've grown up in in in india where democracy. works and therefore when i see the imposition of digital transactions and criminalization of cash between poor people. i basically see
3:50 pm
this as a dictatorship michaela detected digital dictatorship when i watch not just in india but in africa and other parts of the world. now that we have the data that is showing that native seeds of more nutrition the produce more food they have no cost because you don't have to use chemicals that local biodiversity is the way to feeding the world in spite of all that evidence in spite of the evidence. in the united nations and the faa- in i'm ted every agency bill gates is still imposing and forcing gm house. which is a failed enterprise and he's now just imposing gmos he's taking waters failed and rejected my god by government my govevernmet through the b. deal between a monsanto out. bill. gates resurrected in bangladesh. we've rejected the gold rice for solving the problem of blindness he finances it too congenial to phphilippipines so he's taking all the failed projects with the wrong thinking that life is like a
3:51 pm
word program. and can be chopped and cut and pasted when it's so amazing complexity of self organization and scientists call it- to boyce's self organization right. your own poetry that's what life does he is absolutely ignoring all of this new knowledge that new science is giving us an imposing a field technology with a huge cost to the planet. only so they canan be monopolils and peoplple and farmers on free to have a seat. but then the shiva obviously- you have strong views and we're happy that you were able to share them with us thank you very mumuch for- watching this interview here on france.
