What you’re doing there is the bidding of those in power by shifting responsibility away from them and on to individuals just trying to survive (and yes, give in to the literal constant propaganda).
We wouldn’t be consuming all that shit if there wasn’t someone making shitloads of money from selling it to us.
Blame them.
Stop buying their bull shit and they will go out of business
lmfao tell me you don’t know shit about how capitalism works without saying you don’t know shit about how capitalism works.
The problem with your brand of bullshit is that it isn’t just ignorant, but as I said before - you’re actively playing for the rich and powerful by joining in with their bullshit distraction and shifting of responsibility so that they can keep hoarding and spending more money that you could possibly even fathom.
You’re not just being a part of the problem for the rest of us, which you clearly don’t care about, but you’re also shooting yourself in the foot, which you probably can’t feel because you’re too busy licking boot.
just to maybe say what that other person said in a different way:
carbon isn’t emitted at the point of consumption, it’s emitted at the point of production. if you don’t buy a new phone or a plastic toy the carbon from its production doesn’t go away it’s already been released.
and before i say this next part i want to stress that boycotts don’t work except when paired with other more militant movements.
if you and everyone else stops buying a new phone or a plastic toy then the factory doesn’t close down and get rehabilitated, it changes hands and the new owners make something with less environmental exposure, like plastic pipes or mine detonator circuit boards.
the way to stop our emissions is at the point of production globally, not at the point of consumption individually.

There is no need for personnal attacks when someone is wrong.
