the submission is about engineers filtering forever chemicals from the water. the response was "it's too late." that's giving up. if you want to be intellectually dishonest and pretend it's not, that's your choice.

sometimes in life you find yourself in a position where there's a mess and you need to clean it up. i don't know what else to tell you.
- emodendroket 3y agoThe post I was replying to said "That should be the number one goal - to stop it at it's source instead of dealing with it after the fact." Who's being dishonest here? The gratuitous condescension seems rather unwarranted if you're not going to figure out the context of my post before attacking it.
