Make it make sense

The stores are tired of paying for something and want the customer to pay for it. That's all it is. Has nothing to do with the environment. Its all about the bottom line. It's the same as self check out. Why pay for something if you can get the customer to do it/pay for it

We stopped using paper bags in the 90's to save trees

The store is saving a buck by buying less bags than claiming it's for the environment. It's a cost saving measure that also has a tax write-off.

Furthermore, I tried to find brown paper lunch bags at the store to no avail, yet they have half an aisle of Ziploc plastic bags. Like every other gaslighting diatribe, it's all about the power to control and money.

Sure, let me try: Leftist aspirations are not only misguided—they are, in reality, demonic. Their intent is to estrange and divorce you from reality, the world, logic, and common-sense understanding. This isn’t accidental; it’s their one and only telos. Is it clearer now?

The shops wanted to find a way to charge for the bags to increase their profits. Rather than just charging they used the environment as the excuse.

100 years ago they gave you a paper bag for your groceries for free like they used to give you a plastic bag for your groceries for free. Oh, and they used to put the groceries INTO the bags for you too!

It’s all a scam. The whole enviromental friendly crowd is just covering up a scam.
