Does everyone fully vet their companies executive suite, board of directors and operations before accepting a job? Or the bank they use? Or the owner of the coffee shop they frequent?
Everyone walks around with a computer in their pocket built in a factory where people were to have known to be treated poorly, possibly to the point of suicide and then they use that device to type in comments about moral superiority.
- brookst 4y agoYes. And wait until you hear about how US railroads, which we in the US all depend on, were built. Civilization is a story of gradual improvement. Insisting that anything be completely beyond reproach overnight is not a productive view. And yet some people can't resist.
- LawTalkingGuy 4y agoThere are problems with using the suicide factory as a moral point expecting someone to give up an iphone. We're generally not given a baseline for the surrounding city, area, and country. The west has suicides, China will have suicides, how does this factory compare to those? Our impact isn't explained, along with the replacement for it, on the worker, the company, demand, and so forth. If there are any better alternatives and for who, and what the apples-to-oranges weighting for that decision is. The feelings and preferences of current, post, and hopeful company/industry employees and other citizens in that area.
