Most of clothes are subsidized by slave labour or pollution [1] [2]. The question is, who gets the margins. Somehow when it's Shein or Teemu it's "fast fashion bad", and when it's Adidas or Levi's it's "let's close our eyes and pretend that not happened".

- jjj123 3y agoWhy do you think we don’t care about US brands? H&M, Nike, Adidas are all built on slave labor and pollution. I didn’t know that Levi’s was as well until reading your comment. I do think the scale and the race to the bottom in terms of price and disposability is slightly worse with these newer companies, though.
- addicted 3y agoThis may be the most ridiculous comment I’ve heard. Nike, Adidas, Levi’s, all sorts of brands have been under attack by people in the West for decades! Western activists have been successfully fighting them to improve their supply chain for at least as long as I have been alive.
