Recycling is a scam invented by big oil to shift the responsibility to the consumer. Every second we argue about correct recycling, is a second we don't argue about system changes.

Far more effective to boycott those companies instead. I stopped buying BP products because of how terrible they are.

I just want to be clear that not buying things isn’t a boycott.

Don't use whataboutism to shirk your responsibilities. Recycling properly is a good and necessary thing. Though it'd be more effective to create less waste in the first place.

Just don't use products made by these corporations. It's your choice. Stop pretending it is not.

Edit: WELLL, maybe except Google or Apple, since it is forced on society to use smartphones, which sucks, but that's where some government regulation could help.
