      Bullshit. Seeing spots where homeless setup in the streets piled with trash make me not give them anything. They don’t fucking care, why should I?

        Perfect example of how privilege destroys empathy. Next youre telling us how those damn refugees cant be bothered to get to work at 6yo just because their stupid parents got bombed to pieces. Why would you care about them when they dont pay taxes for your country? And they even keep you awake at night with their stupid crying noises, cant they shut tf up?

        It sounds like you’re expecting them to abide by the social contract before we do. We don’t just not care about them; we’re actively persecuting them.

          Not at all. But if they just leave trash everywhere they go and they can’t be bothered to put it in a trash can, why the fuck should I support that.

          At least in America there’s a trash can on almost every street corner. Within 50 ft of where they’re setting up their little camps to ask for money.

    I keep a pick stick and trash bag on hand for situations like this. It makes it easy to place trash neatly on the ground.

    This is a great metaphor for the internet… it used to be cool. Now it’s full of capitalism and dumb-shits who mess it up.

    Jesus, just got a 500-volt startle when I saw that image. Thought I was transported back to 2007’s Dnepropetrovsk 😬

    There’s places that still use Styrofoam for food? I haven’t seen it in a long time.

      I don’t see many food containers, but it’s mostly replaced with styrofoam coolers that are still sold as well as lots of random packing material
