Yes and no. There are two parts to the anti-GMO movement.
The one where people allege that GMO foods are inherently dangerous solely because of the genetic-manipulation has no credibility. (And the logic defies nearly the entire history of agriculture.)
The one where people allege that Monsanto manipulates laws and abuses their patents to disrupt traditional farming practices in a manner that enhances their monopolies and destroys livelihoods while introducing potentially dangerous pesticides into our diets is probably still valid.
