- jeffreyrogers 6y agoI'm not sure things will improve much if Western governments start paying attention either.
- netsharc 6y agoI remember a reddit response to someone saying "Why would you live there, you're just condoning the slavery", the person wrote (I'll paraphrase), "Look around you, who made your clothes (probably underpaid Bangladeshi working in unsafe factories), who made your tech [or who mined the rare-earth metals needed], the difference is, in the West, you're a few steps further from this slavery.".
- hardlianotion 6y agoI guess the principled response to this is to take responsibility for what you use and wear. The responder is right but glib - his observation should not be a spur to silence and insensitivity to other people's living conditions make societies at all scales more unstable.
