Okay, I won't bicker -- I mean to say that the subjective whims of the upper classes tend to *look* like 'objective social reality' to those below, the disempowered. Power dynamics from above sets the *culture* for everyone else, below.

You're *politically* appropriate to say that no one ever got to vote as to whether plastic should be produced, or not, but, given that the Great Garbage Patch now exists, what's the problem with possibly *addressing* it with some kind of technical clean-up approach, like using waxworms? Ditto for carbon sequestration approaches in response to empirical global warming, and mushrooms on floating mats to eat up oil spills when they happen.
You're sounding politically ultra-left -- (overly dismissive).

You'd be wrong if you did this.
The mold (that I provided in this thread) is NOT objective at all. It's based on the subjective *needs* and *desires* of the mold-makers, who are the upper classes. The 1 %. They are the mold-makers, and this function has existed for thousands of years. But the current mold is new. They are always new.
Being melted over and over again (melted = new normals, wars, social destruction, forced migration, etc) in order to become *the latest tool of the elite* is extremely subjective, and it's why we end up failing with each change. They're fake to begin with. They are also sold by using lies to the plastic classes (lower classes - malleable labor). These lies mean that these changes - these now molds - are not based on common needs or desires at all.

Both of these statements are just plastic showing how proud it is to be plastic.
