    I love how people drink alcohol which is litttally a form of poison, smoke or vape heavy metals, and eat the most processed shit food made. But micro plastics is where they want to draw the line.

      Well there is no perceived benefit to micro plastics. No buzz, no stress relief, no fun etc… They are just a biproduct.

      People like to have the freedom to pick their poison.
