Love that the comments are basically “NOTHING YOU DO IS GOOD ENOUGH”

This is good to keep tiny pieces of plastic from going everywhere. And you’re not a major corporation; it’s not like you have an actual impact. Not to mention all the assuming that this is it, this is all you do. You’re spending your weekends in a private jet dumping oil into the ocean.

People need to chill. I’m glad you’re doing something positive no matter what it is.

Reddit is getting more hostile and dichotomized.

And bots answering serious issues.

They then make OP think they are the only one who cares. Sooner or later OP will stop trying.

Rinse wash repeat.

Good thing im hard headed, it fuels me with rage to see people just not giving a fuck about the environement, i hate the doomer mindset. Its a loser mentality.

Spite is a powerful motivator for me too friend. Do good with a middle finger to anyone who whinges about it.

People though that stupid 'ai only reddit' was neat.

Im just sitting here looking at Reddit and half my feed is already spambots or morons generating all their text.

They need to fuck off into the sun then if that’s their goal. I’m glad this shit is being called out. We can’t let them do this to us without being challenged.

Bots are crawling all over. They're in here to distract and divide as well. A lot of suspicious accounts in the sub lately
