getBusy Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) The REAL problem is that there are cities in this country where tap water is literal poison. (I obviously don’t know if that’s the case in this video) (Also yea capitalism popped off) Edited January 11 by getBusy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

byzantium Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Considering that this person is forming their worldview based on a tik tok and twitter, I think they are projecting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2024 almost everyone forms their worldview in part on social media, because social media is the platform where most information is disseminated. This isn't an argument. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheep Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Not that this isn't a huge issue but this type of outrage always reeks of ignorance over how our food supply chain works. There is excess single-use plastic waste at every step(including ones you've never even thought of) of producing anything that enters your body other than tap water. If wasteful practices are favorable for the average middle class household imagine how attractive they are to companies working at scale. Reform and regulation is truly the only viable path here and harassing normal people does no good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illuminati Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) The problem isn't that they pour from a container to another imo. It's like pouring into a glass who cares. It's American in a tacky TV dinner tray setup kind of way. I saw it in the replies being called white people's behavior. To the rest of us it's just giving American These Stanley thermoses being a viral status symbol at the moment only exaggerates it because you know they're not using it for convenience... indoors. They're in their living room It's harmless though Let them enjoy their tupperware setup I guess Edited January 11 by Illuminati Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CottageHore Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 The mindless consumerism is pathetic, yes. Almost as pathetic as losers from other first world countries which actively participate in the free market and mass consumerism on a daily basis acting like they’re superior to middle and lower class Americans simply because they’re… not American 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tropez Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Americans don’t have clean drinking water. So they use bottled water. Most developed countries you can safely drink from the tap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orsay Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 The majority of Americans have access to potable water from the tap. Of course in some areas like Flint it’s an issue but that applies to less then 5% of the overall population, so some of the comments in here are just demonstrably wrong This video made me super sad the first time I saw it. Very dystopian and empty future ahead I fear. People have nothing meaningful to live for 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuteboyzay Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 That was so cringe but chile, I’m also seeing young black kids getting fed and having some type of “normalcy” in comparison to a lot of young black children that spend their nights going to bed starving lmao. I feel like someone just wanted a viral tweet and they got it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
