Wokeness gone mad

I recycle all of my plastic grocery bags. I have 4 wastebaskets in my home and office. I use the bags as liners. I get some bags at stores that are larger and I use them to dispose of paper from the shreader.

Plastic grocery bags can be repurposed, yes. But for use, not to be recycled or rather reconstructed into renewable forms of plastic. It’s not just grocery bags either. Some plastics are recyclable, most are actually not. I repurpose my grocery bags too, when I occasionally get them. I’m not sure why some here believe having reusable grocery bags is considered third-world. It would be like comparing any reusable item like shoes, clothes, as reusable and saying that’s third world. If you get the right ones, they’re easy to wash.

My grandmother use to get these old cloth bags, big enough to hold three gallon jugs, and got the idea from her church, I believe. Conservatives use to actually care about recycling all the way back in the mid 80s. At least in my state. They were the ones that pushed for more recycle facilities and even helped get us separate recycle cans by early 2000s. And while I understand that maybe a large percentage of recycled materials is actually just thrown into garbage dumps anyway, I still respect the idea of offering the service and even improving upon it both at the production level and the disposing level.

Doesn’t mean I’m going to bite your head off if I see you use plastic bags at grocery stores or use a plastic straw. But at the same time, being a conservative doesn’t just mean giving no shit about the land nor what is put in it or taken out; as well as being unable to adapt and being just offended when things are changed.

I get it tho, plastic bags for non-reusable (if even usable) paper straws is nonsense but pretending all plastic is created equal, when it’s not, is just displaying ignorance.

And the defender of leftist woke ideology steps up to perpetuate the lies. Things like Mustard bottles and most other plastic Packaging end up in the trash. The cost to clean and process them is far more expensive than just using new plastic and most are never recycled.

Sorry to hear you don’t want to learn or contribute anything to the discussion but take cheap shots at me.

Disagreeing and pointing out your errors isn’t taking cheap shots. The fact you relentlessly defend leftist positions while perpetrating the fraud that you are anything but a leftist I find amusing. That you dislike being called on it is even more amusing.

But you're not disagreeing and pointing out my errors.

Your first sentences addresses me and is an overall laughable generalization. You then state two facts. Neither have anything to do with my previous comment other than they are about recycling.

These don't refute my statements at all which are:

-there are many grades of plastic.
-plastic grocery bags are mass produced in greater quantaties than other individual unrecycable packaging plastic.
-it's likely unrecycable plastic packaging will eventually be phased out after grocery bags.

None of these defend leftist lies, nor have anything to do with the cost to recycle nor does acknowleging that most people don't recycle anyway refute any of my statements.

Stating two unrelated facts don't make what I say lies. I will at least admit they could contribute somewhat to the discussion, but you've yet to construct them in such away that they actually do. Good try, but no.

Try again.

My first sentence acknowledges you tilt. The following sentences explain my disagreement with you erroneous defense.

They don’t but whatever you say.
