In criminology, the broken windows theory states that visible signs of crime, antisocial behavior and civil disorder create an urban environment that encourages further crime and disorder, including serious crimes.[1]
You’ve pretty much exemplified this but with doomerism instead of crime. Just because things are turning to shit doesn’t mean we should encourage other problems that we know need tackled. There’s enough plastic around us, everywhere, all of the time, without encouraging people to go out and buy more to spread around.
Your clothes are likely plastic, your food is in plastic, your phone is plastic, your water bottle is likely plastic, almost every item of the modern world has plastic somewhere. Even if it doesn’t look like plastic, it could be plastic. It’s fucking disgusting.
This isn’t a shitpost, it’s an advert in disguise.
No I don’t. Look micro-plastics are bad, yea we all get that. But fucking read the room. We have way worse shit to worry about, this isn’t broken windows, this is watching billionaires fund far right politicians in every single “free” country so the can become the next queens and kings. This is watching innocent people get executed live on TV, it’s not isolated broken windows, the fucking neighborhood is burning and your the HOA president bitching about the lawn not being mowed.
