    this is a good thread about how consumers are made to feel guilty about something that they actually have next to no control over, which is the widespread use and abuse of plastics in literally every commercial product we buy

    https://sunbeam.city/@interneteh/102298991237275337

    it's one of the great lies that our civilization perpetuates, the bizarre notion that enormous trillion-dollar industries controlled by a tiny number of extremely wealthy individuals, people who buy themselves entire governments and news organizations, _somehow_ does all of its evil work at the behest of the all-powerful _consumer_

    and therefore it is the _consumer_ to blame for what products are made in the world, what materials are used, what conditions the laborers suffer, all of it. all of these things are supposedly within the power of "consumers" to change

    needless to say this isn't the case at all
