Well, they would have to be pretty hard lumps of dirt. If you just toss a
handful of loose dirt in the washing machine, it will be dissolved in the
washing waters, and the washing machine detergent you hopefully put in along
with your washing will be more than glad to help it's dissolution with the
enzymes it contains.
Of course, I don't know anyone that would toss a lump of dirt into a washing
machine to test a theory, other than a scientist or researcher, although if
you have young kids it is possible you will be tossing in heaps of caked-on
mud, which, essentially, is dirt ... ;-)
If you are referring to fluff or something akin to that, then yes I reckon
it would probably be unable to get out, and stay behind. But I haven't seen
much LEGO that suffers from a fluff problem, have you? ;-)
Cheers ...
