I’ve randomly heard various iterations of the claim recycling is a scam but never received a fleshed-out explanation or anything

Plastic bottle made from PET are highly recyclable, actually. Other plastics are as well, to varying degrees. Sorting is the biggest issue. When you collect PET bottles separately, you can grind them down and make new bottles out of that.
