Trump gets a lot of millage complaining about:
- electric stoves
- meat alternatives
- low flow toilets and showers
- CFC free hair spray (he's still mad we fixed the ozone hole)
- LED light bulbs (which are objectively better than incandescent)
- masks
etc.
But it's not just one old man's weird fixation, he's people really relate to these complaints.
Some know-it-all do-gooder wants to lecture you, make you do something a little differently. It chafes. I almost understand-- 1/
I almost relate to the frustration at things being degraded. It's like "enshittification" -- or I think it must feel like what we'd call "enshittification" though the essence of functionally public "free" services getting worse has to do with greed. Someone is making my computer programs worse just to make a few pennies off of me and my data. The exploitation is what brings the anger.
Not making a hole in the ozone layer isn't like that. But I think many people don't see it this way. 2/
