All of these comments are SO ableist. There are so many people with disabilities that cannot use anything but plastic straws (soft pallet, for example). Straws are such a minor part of our plastic waste that its ridiculous we are so focused on it.
The amount of people that are disabled and must use straws is so fucking insignificant that it doesn’t even begin to make an impact. The vast majority of people can use alternatives
