With all the shit Corps add to food nowadays the less I give a fuck it's microplastics tbh..
Make a list of all the things to worry about. Where does microplastics fall on that list? Is it above or below flushing with the toilet lid open?
It bothers me that people are worried about this and pfas but not nitrogen oxides or failures-to-deliver. It shows we worry about what we are told to worry about, rather than what maybe we should worry about.
What is failure-to-deliver? A woman who stays pregnant fo the rest of her life?
Pretty much. It is when someone sells stock in a company but never delivers the stock. It's a great way to steal a bunch of money from the economy.
That depends on how aggressively they modify hormones and how long term a view you have.
Will it end the human race?
Probably not.
Will it lead to birth defects and cancer upticks, yup.
I am as much an organatarian when it comes to things like plastics as I am a vegetarian when it comes to meat consumption. What better can the average person do?
First they came for our Lead based fuel Then they came for our Lead based paint They're not touching Lead based ammo, because Lead based ammo isn't killing people. People are killing people.
It won't be fixed without a revolution so worried isn't the right word. Resigned to the neoliberal order about to crumble into its natural progression.
