I wish people would keep in mind that a person’s position and their supposed hypocrisy are two different things. A person’s position does not become false if they happen to be a hypocrite.
- josephcsible 3y agoPointing our her blatant hypocrisy wasn't really the main point, though. The main point was showing how bad a plastic ban would be, by showing how much stuff in our society either has no non-plastic alternatives, or only really bad non-plastic alternatives.
- synetic 3y agoThe argument would be better without referring to her blatant hypocrisy. It serves no purpose other than to appeal to dull witted people. There may not be plastic alternatives available right now to many things but one needs to make an argument that there is no possible substitute. That one can’t make an alternative. Furthermore it needs to be argued that the positives from using plastic outweigh the negatives caused by greatly reducing usage of plastics and the negatives caused by using plastic.
