Its tough finding greater hypocrisy than that of the corporations who greenwash themselves for their idiot customer base. Gillette would be a prime example. So woke, so PC, yet their business-model says fuck the planet as loudly as any oil company. All their products are disposable.

A hundred years ago, you could buy a lifetime razor. That’s right, one cool little shaving device that would keep your face baby-ass smooth from puberty to your last shave.

It was the Rolls razor, and here it is.

1 vs 3,000. Easy math.
