    I love how nowadays they made it illegal to wash your car out on the street because it pollutes the ground.

    Like motherfucker where do you think this dirt goes to when it falls off the car while driving?

    They should outlaw cars to fix this.

        Soap is not a grave concern for pollution. What got it banned - at least where I live - was the occupation of public space and consequent danger for circulation of other cars and pedestrians.

        He said can’t wash on the street which implies you can wash on the driveway which will immediately spill into the street.

        I suspect the law is more of a safety law created after some teens were hit while washing their car and the parents demanded something must be done.

        We have safe cleaning detergents, the government agencies themselves claim it’s the dirt hence a reply to their claim

            I’m not gonna scroll through instagram until that advertisement shows up again.

            You’re free to move here in scroll senselessly to get the ad again.

              I’m sorry, but are you getting your information on the effects of car detergent on the environment from an advertisement!?!?

              Remember when those dish detergent ads were washing oil off birds? THOSE BIRDS STILL DIED ANYWAYS

                An advertisement from the official government thing over here. It’s the governments own official website.

                Stop freaking out over some dude online you’ll never meet irl.

                Collect yourself and go offline for the day, maybe try to relax for a bit and breathe some outdoor air. Have a conversation with a neighbour or local shopkeep.

                    Does the content and veracity of an ad change depending on where it is? Either you trust the source or you do not.

                Another one.

                Go outside, have some real human interaction and learn to get over yourself.

                Log off for a couple weeks and see if you can become a real human boy once more.

                  First the blatantly incorrect assertion. Then the clueless fumbling to justify it. Now the generic ad hominem attacks.

                  This is better than a movie… what’s next?

                    They’re just trolling. There are many stupid people out there but this one is just too perfectly stupid to likely be real.

                    If they aren’t trolling… I feel sorry for them.

                  Tbf you’re the one getting riled up. Maybe take your own advice and also stop using random ads you can’t even name as a source.

      illegal to wash your car out on the street because it pollutes the ground.

      If you have a rainwater sewer, you’re basically pouring soap and oil straight into the nearest river or lake.
