If you're allowed to do bad things, you make laws to prevent it.
- yanderekko 3y ago>delusional weirdos More like economically literate weirdos who understand that the reason why people like cheap consumer goods is not because evil corporations have imposed a false consciousness on them that prevents them from realizing true class consciousness and releasing themselves from their chains. Any jurisdiction can try to ban goods that are created through low-wage labor, or more generally labor that does not adhere to the regulatory regime of that jurisdiction. It basically never happens in the western world except for the most extreme cases (eg. actual slave labor) for obvious reasons, and when it does it almost always reflects a shameful form of protectionism.
