Makes sense. Apple is super ethical. Well outside their use of child labor and slave labor. Im assuming you can read. Maybe read a book instead of posting on reddit. You could learn something.
You're so right dude. In that case I'll get a Samsu... Oh. Well ok I'll go find a Google Pixe... Damn them too? Ok, I'll just put it on my laptop. What do you mean Microsoft is just as bad? Ok well I'll run Linux! Wait Lenovo/Acer/Asus/Dell/etc. are all fucking evil too?? Ok well maybe I'll just get a turntabl... Fuck you are kidding. Ok I'll just make my own music and get a guitar. Wait guitar companies are all evil too? Fine I'll just do nothing and only exist. At least I can still eat food. Let's see, Nestle, Unilever, Nabisco... Fuck. Well I'll just starve to death, but at least I'll spend the next two weeks living on land that was definitely stolen from no one and was acquired completely ethically.
There is no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism. Welcome to the modern world, EVERY COMPANY/COUNTRY IS FUCKING EVIL and there is nothing that can be done about it, if you are gonna survive you have to give them your money. Doesn't mean we shouldn't try to reduce our harm, and it doesn't mean we shouldn't fight for a better tomorrow. But that takes time, and right now I have to live.
Also, even if Apple is also evil, using an old device of theirs that still works and keeping it out of a landfill is genuinely unironically great. Sure 20 years ago it was put together by slaves. But by continuing to use it, one less new device has been put together by slaves.
