It seems pretty clear that making diamonds in a lab could and should preclude slave mining. Wasn't that the point of them?

- dtagames 4y agoSo we shouldn't have manmade diamonds because... people hide things in them? That really seems like a stretch. I would posit that the exact reason manmade diamonds are rising in popularity is that they're not mined at all. It's better for the environment, for workers, and for the customer paying the bill.
