I understand how you feel. It can be frustrating.
Contrary to popular belief Amazon actually does put energy into making sure products are responsibly sourced. Products are de-listed if they’re found to come from unethical sources.
To take that even further take a look at Climate Pledge Friendly. Those are products with (at least one) third party certification. These certifications don’t just further climate goals. Social responsibility is also considered. Including worker conditions and product durability. You can filter search results by this attribute. Admittedly it can be hard to filter for specific certifications.

- amzthrow 3y agoTake a look at the certifications. It’s a signal.
- nijave 3y agoAmazon can simultaneously do due diligence on a subset of products while completely ignoring the rampant fraud and knockoffs of many other products.
- beebmam 3y agoA giant portion of Amazon's products are made in China by a populace that's enslaved by their totalitarian dictator. Please allow me to identify which products are made in China, and other communist/totalitarian states, so that I can exclude them from my searches.
