Plastic recycling is a scam that exists to green wash usage of plastics. Apparently it’s even worse than that, actually, bc the presence of sufficient unrecyclable plastic in bins of commingled recycling causes all of it to get landfilled.

Shit drives me insane. Oh God, those tetra pack containers claim to be recyclable, but actually there’s just one recycling facility for them, and it’s in Mexico, so if by the grace of God your municipality actually opts in to recycling this one specific type of packaging, it all gets hauled across the border.

Pepe reposted an article to his tgram channel with some comments:

That article’s analysis is that the British elite hate Russia because the Putin government displaced Rothchild-aligned Jewish oligarchs who took control of post-soviet Russia, and that “the Rothchilds are as British as 5 o’clock tea”. Laughable tripe if you ask me. So in addition to being sensational, he seems to also some combination of an uncritical dupe, an actual moron, or a reactionary.

Also I don’t mean to say pepe should be dismissed out of hand. He travels a lot and seems to talk to lots of ppl and so surfaces interesting stuff from time to time.

That article is from July 2022

I think a key attribute of this article that makes it notable is that its author is Jeff Sachs. On paper he has the maximum degree of normie credibility–his only disqualification these days is mounting arguments that counter the bourgeois narratives, which is only a disqualifier to the naive. As I read this I realized there are no reasons that have been articulated as to why covid couldn’t have originated in and/or escaped from a lab funded by the U.S.

• The U.S. gives no shits about treaties banning research of this type
• It’s absolutely not beyond the U.S. to invest in R&D into biological weapons
• It’s absolutely not beyond the U.S. to lie about something like this
• There’s no reason to believe the MSM wouldn’t play ball with a coverup given the coverage of other aspects of covid

I wonder if the CPC is sitting on any info regarding this topic…

Not OP, but I think the BRICS+ are seeing continued development of productive forces (e.g. BRI; financing via the BRICS new development bank for industrial development [and not predatory credit issued for the purposes of lowering prices of export commodities thus stifling development]), while the G7 is unable to break free from neoliberal post-industrial services which have very limited real economic benefit, and in the case of Germany and presumably other west European countries, actively deinduatrializing.

I can’t point to exact sources but this is Michael Hudson’s bread and butter.

Shitty clone job bc Blinken is far stupider than Kissinger was. Kissinger was a realist who negotiated with u.s. adversaries when it ultimately suited long term political goals, whereas Tony blinken is an idealogue and an idealist and therefore does not see and cannot effectively respond to the massive geopolitical changes the last 30 years have seen. You better believe that Genocide Joe claiming that burgerland is the “indispensable nation” has at least something to do with this dullard. Honestly, critical support to our boy Tony for being such a failure, resulting in a significant dimuntion of u.s. imperial capabilities.

Obviously rest in pissinger, just saying he wasn’t an idiot like blinken.

I forgot this dweeb existed until just now 🫥

No no Biden needs another pudding
