How else will i know which scam products that we’re built cheaply in a factory with poor conditions to spend my money on to have a fleeting sense of convenience that’s washed away as soon as either

  1. I get used to it and it becomes just another thing in my house, my monument to consumption
  2. It breaks because the company cared about making a good product just as much as they cared about providing livable conditions for their workers, which is to say not at all

The majority of people don’t care about these things. This shouldn’t be surprising anymore.
