"It's toxic..."

"Styrofoam. It's toxic, can't be recycled, and there are better alternatives."

"Now idiots can connect to each other..."

"Social Media - It gave people the ability to find others and create echo chambers. Before, idiots were isolated to dealing with just a few in their immediate radius of existence. Now idiots can connect to each other across the world and validate their thoughts/feelings."

"Imagine companies..."

"Planned obsolescence.

Ain't built like they used to - because they can't sell you a newer model if the old one is still performing like new.

If companies didn't have this in mind we wouldn't be running out of resources and messing up the planet in search of more. This would create less conflict and way less pollution. Imagine companies actually making insanely good, long-lasting products instead of cheap ones that needs replacing more often than it should."

A great film about the tobacco industry: The Insider (1999). Really makes you think about the cost we all pay for Big Tobacco.

"I can't believe..."

"The concept of Flat Earth. I can't believe people are still stuck in the seventeenth century and still believe in that crap and try to defend it with their misunderstandings of science and physics, as well as pure ignorance."

People believe the most ridiculous things.

"They exist solely..."

"Torture devices. They exist solely to cause harm."

"How am I going to pay you..."

"Overdraft fees. How am I going to pay you EXTRA money when I don't have money?!"

Human beings are capable of so much innovation, beauty, and joy, but threads like these remind us of all the horrors in the world. There's a lot of darkness in humans, too.
