Yet here we are, it and the plugins handle too much of my daily traffic. It’s easy to dismiss the piss poor coding, but is done at our peril.
Everyone of us has personal data stored in those God awful plugins, in their thousands of basic security holes
The population has been made isolated at the community level. There are very few local groups doing any reaction at all to this.
And violent reactions which are successful are a group action; it’s very seldom an individual, in any era of history, changed the politics by themselves.

I agree that powdered is better and cheaper.
The microplastics issue is more contentious, and while many say it’s bad that it enters the water supply, I suspect the smallest of the particles do not wash away so well
Neighborhood politics, social gatherings, community hotspots has massively declined in the last two generations,
It’s really hard to organize anything face to face?
Perspective can definitely change when one experiences needless suffering or death, or watches a loved one go through that
There is too much blame to go around, and not enough people and orgs wanting to acknowledge blame.
Trump did not become a household name randomly. He was helped and aided by many. And I have noticed hundreds of times how the main stream media enabled his word salad and gave it meaning and power. In real life, not many people listen to blathering hateful idiots.
