>It’s only after the fall of the Soviet Union that shit with plastic poured into. As well with the fall of recycling, morals, etc.

Soviet Union was green not because of morals, but because it was poor and couldn't afford single use packages. I remember when Nutella entered my country, the empty Nutella jars were washed, kept and used as glasses for drinking - because buying new glasses was hard or expensive.

>And yes, most glasses have never been stolen.

I assume that's only because they were chained and in crowded places. Whole eastern Europe of that time was a thief paradise with casual theft almost completely normalized. (source: I am from Eastern Europe)
