Hello all, I am wondering can you point me to reading material or share ideas on how manifacure of medicine(and other things currently requiring complex supply chains) can be achieved in anarchist society?

    Do any beer breweries genetically engineer their yeast? Honest question. I was gonna use that question to counter you but then I realized I wouldn’t be surprised if some already do, and IMO that would be pretty cool!

      They usually depend on yeast strains that have been optimized with traditional selection methods for centuries, so there is little need to modify them further. But modern genetic methods are used to monitor and prevent unwanted further mutations AFAIK.
