If we want to get conservatives on board with environmental protections, we should just start a conspiracy that the perceived rise in trans people, gays, and autistics is due to plastic ester groups in the environment. Then tell them that these groups are represented in the media so much now because the petrolium companies don't want us to see it as a problem when the science breaks.
Brb, gotta go convince some trumpers single use plastic is making their kids gay.
What's hilariously sad is that this could work
I remember conservative conspiracy types were all over the idea that covid was going to be uncontainably catastrophic right up until the pandemic really happened and the party line was suddenly that actually the virus isn't real after all, at which point they did an about face rather than delivering actually well deserved "told you so"s.
Point being, as soon as they see
They will suspect this sentiment is disloyal to their political tribe and definitely automatically discard it on that basis.
@SadSadSatellite @remington I'm visualizing sperm in plastic armor. Think Imperial stormtroopers. The Death Stars were giant balls, after all🫠😆
That’s basically already a thing what with the gay frogs and such
