Now, go on ebay and find people in the UK / Sweden / Wherethefuckever selling "gizmos" listed as "in your country" but dead cheap and with a 3 week delivery time. Anything, I don't know... SLi bridges, CR2320 batteries, whatever, anything. This is what they are doing.
As soon as they sell one on ebay, they buy it on dealxtreme (for half the ebay price) and have it sent direct to ebay customer.
But you didn't hear it from me.


Morel, I feel like there's an industry with some children in some very dark places that you are supporting by buying anything from that site.

Because not buying from it will free all the riceniggers
oh wait no it will just make yourself feel like you are superior to others who do buy from there yet again so lets do that anyway


I guess they don't teach character growing up in soviet latvia.

almost all of the stuff you own at one point or another will have visited a sweatshop which had employed children at some point
maybe sell everything you own and make ur own clothes so u know 4 sure that ur not supporting the evil child labour industry

Your argument fails to explain why it's stupid for me not to purchase goods when I'm sure it's from a sweatshop etc as opposed to "all my shit" where I'm not really sure (and really doubt anything close to all of it has been through a sweat shop).

Morally speaking isn't it much worse to do something bad with knowingly (or woth some certainty) as opposed to unkowningly or inadvertently.

And no, I'm not some moral saint, I never said DO NOT BUY etc, was just pointing it out.

Was saying for arguments sake (not specifically about this site). It seemed you were no longer talking specifically about this site when you started talking generally about how I shouldn't care since everything I buy is sweatshop stuff anyway

Then if you were no longer talking specifically then the fact I'm not positive about this website is irrelevant m8

cripple fight yo

but soldat is right i mean this kind of "consumer activism" that you see these days is completely pointless. as long as you realise that it's just a sop to your conscience not to buy goods made in sweatshops then i have no problem with it, but don't expect it to change anything.

good video on a tangentially related topic:

that's cool and interesting. i disagree though once he gets into Oscar Wilde and forward. he claims to agree he is misanthropic, but that's not the case. his position is overly optimistic - thinking that if we stop masking the problem with "cheap charity" people will see the situation for what it is and some great change will result. that's getting far too cute with morality, politics, and even just causation.
