That's how fucked up our world is outside the jurisdiction of a well functioning government and an engaged and educated populace. It's only as nice as we decide to make it.
- mschuster91 8mo agothe thing is, technically "convenience flags" are outside our jurisdiction... but the companies owning the ships? the companies chartering the ships? these are in Western jurisdictions. We could hold them accountable, but we don't, because freight companies are insanely well connected in politics and too many too rich people profit too much from this kind of exploitation.
