These terrible chemicals are just not worth it at all.
The only people suffering from forever chemicals being banned are the people producing these poisons.
You can't even drink rainwater anymore. This is killing us.

I really don't think you can just point at China and completely rule out a system as a concept. It's also worth noting that communism is the antithesis of capitalism. Why do you think that America aggressively attacked every country that's ever tried it? If we didn't attack them straight on, we ran a proxy war against them.
And just because the like 78 people that will see this thread don't have the answer doesn't mean that there isn't one. This is obviously a massive and complex issue that will likely only be solved by all of the worlds power working together.
You can't just say "Oh we don't know what to do about this, so I guess we shouldn't change anything at all". We can still be taking smaller steps.
Just simple things like better public transit will do a lot. Stronger EPA restrictions on just about every industry would go a really long way.
Saving the planet and endless expansion are simply not compatible. The way we are living is going to kill us all, and it's just a fact. There are finite resources and the pollution and by products are not going away.
I mean you ever think about how much waste there is from regular everyday things like junk mail? From having to spend fuel on a tractor to plant trees to harvest paper and then process it into paper to then print the bullshit ads on the junk mail and then it has to be delivered and that causes more pollution and then you just put it straight in the garbage.
Or how about the plastic bag they give you with every purchase at literally any store? Those things don't go away. And we are endlessly producing them, because that's how capitalism works. You have to increase profits. That's the whole point.
You can't reconcile capitalism and the environment.
$100,000,000,000 and I don't get healthcare because it's too expensive for the country.
This place fucking sucks.
Huh. It's almost like this country is a giant scam that crushes people at the bottom and only benefits the owners of these companies.
Yeah I want to be able to earn enough money to have my own emergency fund. Every single problem is fixed by paying CEOs less and workers more.
Seems pretty messed up to me that disagreeing equals hate speech.
If I wanted heavy handed and one-sided moderation I would have stayed on Reddit.
We are very much seeing the powers that be flexing a ton of influence right now.
Now I firmly and staunchly do not believe in any kind of dumb new world order or any crazy beliefs about Jewish people, but we are definitely witnessing a lot of very powerful people influencing this story towards a very pro Israel stance.
This is an objective statement.
Lol well then they'd better stop cancelling shows after 1 season.
This is a dumb idea.
I already scream when I poop. It's not that big of a deal.
