    What I’m able to say does not come across well in text. Please know that I’m using your comment as a diving board into a larger conversation and that this isn’t about your comment. I too am guilty of what I’m about to say.

    But this attitude is the systemic reason why mega corporations, and billionaires are taking over. When the product we consume is good enough for us that we settle.

    We’re exhausted into complacency until we’re personally affected by something.

    Sorry, the we didn’t start the fire remake really put me in a mood

      Yeah I totally agree and understand your point! I was admitting my own lack of a backbone when it comes to convenience vs morality; I’m certainly guilty of taking the easy route over the “right” one in many situations. I don’t love it but hey, we each only have bandwidth to fight so many battles.
