Am I financialy enabling child labor in 3rd world country by buying second hand fast fashion from Thrift shop and Vinted? Because I am not the one who originally bought the clothes from Shein. But buy buying it again from someone else I still use it uhhuhh this is complicated.
But you’re doing the exact same thing with the same outcomes.
Do you consider yourself a virus? Your loved ones? Friends, family? Nobody sees themselves as a blight. It’s always society at large. It’s the decisions we make as a collective.
And then the question is why we are making such decisions. And that’s what i mean with the need for systemic change. It’s not inherent in humans to be like a virus.
