Capital Furs

You see the show called 'Bullshit'? They did an episode on Recycling.

Since then I've has my concerns confirmed; recycling is a cult.

I'm curious as to others opinions on this.

I downloaded it like most people do these days.

New fangled thing called the internet, it's on computers now.

similar.

bullshit lent confirmation on long-standing suspicions.

mostly, money.
if this is worth doing, why is it not making its own money?

its a new fashion. thats all it is.
some of us might be old/read enough to know what the phrase "sin tax" means. to the others, it means attaching a fee or small tax to any purchase considered immoral or harmful, so that the government, in their infinite wisdom and efficiency, can devise and fund a counter to the harm done by the activity being taxed. smokes, booze, gasoline, all the fun stuff really.

another good example is 5 cents per plastic bag at the grocery store. but there are simple problems:
you pay for paper grocery bags.
YOU PAY FOR PAPER GROCERY BAGS.

so to avoid this ridiculous, giant, flaming, gaping, bleeding hole in the body of mainstream, ground level society, you can buy..... an evironmentally friendly bag

BUT ITS MADE OF PLASTIC

They are made of plastic and shipped in from China (Note transport impact on the environment)

word of warning Don't Treat Me Like A Idiot! i get enough of that from my parents always treating me like i'm a invalent

In any case, more even distribution of waste.

Garbage just heaps up.
Recycling and reusing varies the ways in which waste is distributed.
Just because some people make money off of the process doesn't mean it's as bad as being buried in trash.

Also, don't trust Bullshit. They themselves acknowledge that they sacrifice bias balance for comedy in several episodes.

oh there's nothing wrong with making money. i love money. money is the best.
no, really. THE BEST. nothing is better than money. fuck i love that stuff.

alot of people don't think about it, but manufacturing items, such as those stupid plastic eco bags, and especially manufacturing the materials (plastics, paints, dyes, glues, textiles, timber, metals, fuels) that go into items, pollutes alot.
pollution is alot more than gas burning and garbage piling up.

i personally don't beleive a thing about this environmental crisis. its all a bunch of crap, and we're not significant enough to impact the climate of the entire planet, especially when it changes on its own too. we're being lied to, and nobody's questioning it. everyone is swallowing the message.



darky, you gotta chill out man. again. glass of wine, newspaper. a nap. relax dude. i hope you're not always this defensive. it'll kill you some day.
