minus-squarepenguin@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·10 months agoClothing doesn’t require the death of anyone the same way eating meat does. One it’s possible to be cruelty free, and the other is not. Also, if I knew for a fact that a company committed acts of evil, I would avoid them as best I could, just like I do with meat. Complaining that eating meat is not actually wrong, it’s just marketing, is just a laughable way to look at ethics and empathy. Lastly, whataboutism is a joke of a defence.
