@wrathofgnon I guess I'm trying to find the moment it really broke. Did the right article finally hit the right social media algorithm? Is this late capitalism finally coming home to roost on people's hearts? I suppose I'm asking to read the "source code" but it doesn't exist. -
I don’t think there’s a real blip. People don’t see the vast majority of plastic flows. This is a transient cosmetic fad. On the industrial backend, plastics are generally a net good because of the amount of breakage, spoilage, and waste prevented by good packaging.
