Lololololol, plastic as a carbon sink. God O&G disinfo is hilarious.

So "plastic as a carbon sink" is "hilarious O&G disinfo" according to Mark.
So if you ask Mark, plastic isn't a "carbon sink" which means the following two things must not both be true:
- Plastic is not made up of carbon
- The carbon within the plastic will easily break back down and enter the carbon cycle
Everybody got that? Now presumably even as a plastic hater Mark isn't completely stupid enough to not notice that plastic contains carbon (in the form of hydrocarbons). That is in fact their entire argument.
So that leaves (2). The problem is that "plastic doesn't break down" is another key argument with the climate cultists. They couldn't possibly claim plastic doesn't biodegrade and then instantly call it "disinformation" that plastic cannot degrade, right?
Whoops!
Do you honestly not understand the difference between paper based products that can completely degrade in weeks or months and plastic that hangs around for hundreds of years?

That's right, hours if not minutes earlier Mark had argued that plastic doesn't biodegrade!
You have to pick a lane, you green-brained idiot! If it's not biodegradable it's therefore also a carbon sink. There is no third option.
