Plastics are a byproduct of fossil fuel production, and it was and is inevitable (under capitalism) that the overproduction of plastic would lead to the manufactured demand for massive amounts of plastic goods. There was a major marketing push in the 1950s to sell consumers on the disposability of plastic, to create further demand by erasing their Great Depression/wartime-era habits of saving and reusing. There are many examples of successful campaigns to put the masses on cheap garbage, like corn syrup, that people would not have been drawn to spontaneously. These things work.

Fossil fuel companies are major centers of political power, with deep military-industrial ties, easily acquiring politicians and regulators, and encircling any stubborn holdouts. Something major would have to displace them to free up the kind of political oxygen needed for any serious effort to end plastic’s invasive presence in our lives.

“Never Forget”, at least not until the empire has cynically wrung the last bit of sympathetic credulity from the last oblivious grillman. 9/11s were never intended to appreciate in value; they are printed to be spent.

A spectre is haunting Putin. Three of them actually: the Spectres of Communism Past, Present, and Future

Exceedingly critical support to the rival police gang who took this superpredator off the streets

Elitist workers have for decades been leaving the cries of the senator class unheeded
