    Uh no. It’s helping to support the country as well. It puts pressure on individuals and corporations to also push their local/state government to adjust their policy as well.

    If you don’t want to support slavery you can absolutely choose to not buy from countries that use slave labor at parts of the supply chain.

    Suggesting that it’s just a location based boycott is disingenuous to the conversation of it being about countries that you as a buyer are supporting. I’m not saying I don’t buy products from people who live in swamps or wetlands, but from a country that is engaged in politcal issues that are quite major in scope.

    If you want to excuse it away and embrace that opinion, that it’s fine cause it just is a location, fine. Your desire to buy is able to let you ignore the moral dissonance; and it’s what humans do best, ignoring reality because they want something; but, it doesn’t make you any less in the minority on this.

      I was elaborating my answer, but honestly I don’t think you deserve more of my time. You are way to aggressive and judgmental.

      I don’t think to be right, and I honestly don’t have any strong opinion on a matter like this. I was just finding interesting to discuss about a position that I was finding too extreme.

      Have a nice day.

        So playing devil’s advocate for a scenario you don’t care about and didn’t put any thought towards as a game to entertain yourself while it has impacts on the real world?

        You choose to redefine a boycott because of a thought experiment you didn’t even want to deal with people having a differing opinion on? How incredibly lazy and centrist pointed for no reason other than ignore nuance and reality.

        Have a good one, person who ignores issues because it is more fun to just not have an actual opinion on and play the middle like it does anything.
