I’ve been more and more conscious about microplastics. I was not aware that the laundry and dishwasher pods are just plastic which then goes into the water system.

What can be done to prevent microplastics?

    No, my friend. You are upset and directing your anger in the wrong direction. Their solution was simply saying you can help mitigate the problem. Not that we can fix the problem without upsetting someone’s feelings. Nobody blamed the working class. Again, you are directing your anger unreasonably at those who should be your allies. You want to lay blame, but you isolate yourself from those who appear to be agreeing with you. Seems that commenter just meant that even if you can’t completely fix it, you can do a little bit. If you can do a little bit, then why wouldn’t you?

    Because it won’t fix everything is not a reason to not do all that you can. You can only control yourself, so you may as well try your best.

      No, my friend.

      We are not friends.

      Their solution was simply saying you can help mitigate the problem.

      We’ve been “mitigating” this problem for decades now, genius.

      you are directing your anger unreasonably at those who should be your allies.

      No, I am directing my anger at liberals whose ideology serves no other function other than to maintain the status and power of the class of parasites that caused the problem. Liberals are most definitely not allies.

        You don’t know the political affiliations of either of the people you’re insulting. I’m not going to bother replying to you, as you seem to have lost all sense of good faith.

        If you cannot have a discussion without devolving into insults and inflammatory statements, you are not someone I would want as a friend, ally, or even acquaintance honestly. I suggest you seek some means of centering yourself emotionally, as I genuinely think it could be of benefit.

        I hope that you have the day you deserve, and in the future can enjoy calm and rational discourse.

          Your inability to smell liberalism from a mile away is a political competency failure on your part - not mine.

          I would want as a friend, ally,

          And liberal “allies” are worth the massive trouble they cause because… why again?
