I mean, Id argue that enough people are aware of the stories about Nike sweatshops and Apples child labor throughout Southeast Asia such that it could be considered in broad daylight even if Apple/Nike spokespeople arent actively generating quotes about it. We all justify unethical behaviors in capitalism by sweeping them under the rug. It just feels disenguous and self-congratulatory to quit consuming something you barely cared about in the first place due to some sort of moral outrage, especially when the NBA itself isnt endorsing the actions of the Chinese government. We all have to reckon with the consumption of media and products from thousands of unethical practices and companies every day and this just feels like such an arbitrary line to draw unless you are a prominent HK protest activist. i mean, extha is a trump supporter who doesn't give a flying fuck about the deeply unethical aspects of capitalism. you can say his morals suck (which they do) but he's not hypocritical in this sense. --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta <cite>Mr Lasastryke posted [p:928846025] in really don...
