Perhaps it's because CSR is just a facade. Too often we're seeing companies branding themselves as customer-centric, and with the large volume of tehchnology-illiterate in the population, people believe anything/doesn't question their own consumption and The consequences hereof. I have friends who volunteer 6 months in Thailand to work with children only to come home and post instagram pictures of new Nike sneakers once every month (as far as I know Nike doesnt exactly have the vest reputation in regards to child labour).
Most of the time, I feel like people don't give a shit about their consumer habits because they are not motivated by The difference these habits make in the long run ør in a global perspective. It's all about getting those likes. "Supporting" companies with a good CSR profile is a good step towards these likes.
Look up how many people shared and signed up for anti-Kony marches in social media and find the articles that show how many actually showed (it was under 100 I think).
I may be extrapolating here, but I don't think my point can ever be proven even of I'm right.
