  1. Agreed? Like they had a choice? Fuck all of these companies into oblivion. They did harm that will last not just one life time, but every single fucking lifetime. Fuck them. They’ll keep doing it the moment they get a chance to.

  2. Crazy that chemical catastrophes are almost always preventable, understated, and then claim it’s not a dangerous level or is safely dissipating or being diluted… It’s all bullshit claims to keep the public calm and forgetful with local governments also complying in the cover up…. For example, have y’all seen Palestine, OH lately or other places where companies haven’t taken accountability but still got MILLIONS in government handouts and extra funding to specifically cleanup the town and properly dispose of the waste… But they never actually did… Now people watch their health deteriorate by the day and eventually may get multiple cancers from one incident that again, was preventable and manageable afterwards…

    Another fun thing I found is that if you look up radioactive or pollution sites online they will show you SOME of the superfund sites, brownfields, etc where health hazards are far too high for humans to inhabit. I live in West Michigan and I never realized how many places are extremely hazardous and how many border local water sources, residential communities, parks, etc.. It’s barely tracked and terribly managed, these companies all have a responsibility toward mother earth and humanity and they should honestly be burned to the ground for not giving a single fuck about the only livable planet for our species.
