    I mean I am going to play devils advocate but I wonder if they also include stuff like how much carbon emission does your online and non-local shopping habits are causing indirectly? Or your meat consumption? Or your airplane travels? Fuck big companies yes but also we have to change our consumerist mentality as humanity too.

      Your argument boils down to suffer more because someone else is doing proportionately more damage to the point where your personal contribution is entirely negligible and we don’t know how to fix that.

          Can’t buy what isn’t sold. The bulk of society don’t have the financial capacity to change their purchasing habits, they’re already struggling for survival.
