It also presents the dilemma that if we all protested every company, would it really force child labor restrictions and where would many people find work? The real issue is human rights globally. There are death camps in NK currently. Its overwhelming at times to think about

People talk so much about Shein simply because it's the worst of the bunch. Not because it's the only one, because yes, it isn't.

Nike especially is also REALLY bad. But people simply like it too much so it makes them untouchable apparently 🫠 see the people who cancel these brands are always hypocritical. it’s only brands that they can go without. but as soon as you mention nike or apple, it’s a different story. I’m gonna be honest and admit I am typing this from an iphone, but that’s why i never say shit about these things. I am part of the problem.

What is the difference? One has stores and employees all over this country yet the other does not unless u count online influencers and commissions.

Where’s the proof of Nike made in sweat shops where’s the proof of any of these companies making sweat shops you don’t see it so is it people are hiding them self’s or it’s people that want to work for 4 rupees a day not my problem

And if “help” is written on a post label I guess it’s written by post office employees? I’m sure people who are employed to sew/make stuff don’t get involved in the packing/shipping process

I think you're right about that! A lot of people are saying for consumers to completely stop supporting any company that uses child labor and/or pays horrific wages. I'm sorry but that's nearly every company nowadays. Why don't we go for the government? These governments can introduce laws and regulations to make this a less likely occurrence.

Exactly!...Shein isnt even cheap anymore,bc their sales blew up..& yet they can't pay their employees a little more..So Shameful & Sad

No child should work

@ then fix it… oh wait u literally can’t do anything

A lot of people aren't ready for this conversation but: in many of these societies, children are expected to make a monetary contribution to their households. They won't be playing or studying if these jobs don't exist. They'll actually be scraping by, looking for a job. The toxic, entitled adults in these cultures will force these kids on an even more dangerous route than working in a sweatshop, such as selling internal organs or being victims of sex trafficking. The best immediate solution to instill strict requirements for how employees are to be treated, and to follow through by maintaining a regular routine of unscheduled visitations to the factories.

@@emro164 The great deal with child labor is not so much about children losing their time working instead of playing, but about exploitation. A child cant own money. Anything they earn belong to the parents. Essentially, children that work, even when they're paid, are slaves. But sometimes it becomes a necessity for the survival of the parents and the children, which is awful. There's no simple solution, but we cant sit and pretend it's a good thing they're working and making a living.

@@stellar783 Yeah, key word “ALL”. But not all people are, I don’t order from any of those stores just because that’s me, but there’s absolutely nothing we can do to make EVERYONE stop. And your logic isn’t ‘101’ because from people like us who have the privileges and live outside of 3rd world countries don’t understand that the 3 cents they may get from their job is better than the people who get none. Without these stupid fast fashion stores those people would have nothing. So instead of us trying to stop everyone from buying there we can do something ourselves and help the people who work there so THEY can leave that job and do something better for themselves. These stores take advantage of the powerless with their power, and in this case we are powerless to them and vulnerable. So if we take matters into our own hands and help those in these countries who are making little to nothing than that’s how to make a difference. Go after the root of the problem, which is the countries themselves not these stores who manipulate that and take advantage of them.

Here's a thought instead of children working to 'keep them out of trouble' what about they are able to go to school instead? It's not a career choice by the parents for the children, it's survival.

@@gail9299 Sounds great but it’s not that simple. In some parts of various countries the families are too poor to survive & so even the kids drop out of school to make money to help the family. Or parents die & kids are working to take care of their siblings etc.

No ethical consumption under capitalism.

And how exactly is that my problem? 😂

​​@@thrillho90ecause we're all human and that person could have been you. You seem to be proud to be egotistical, get that shit checked out.

Pre-loved and second-hand clothing was also manufactured by big companies, sooooooo! The clothes don't get a pass because they second hand.

@@shonnieb2goodYou are making excuses for yourself. What makes clothes sustainable is something you can wear over and over and doesn’t just end up in landfills. More expensive clothing with better material is usually just that it’s durable so you can keep wearing it. Secondhand IS better because you are not directly supporting the company and are giving the clothes a full life. It’s truly not that hard to not buy from shein, Zara, h&m so what is everyone complaining about

@@shonnieb2good please do research on true secondhand & true vintage fashion. they are NOT manufactured by fast fashion companies or big clothing stores. head down to your local thrift store/charity shop and you will see what i mean. there’s no excuse to fund abuse.

I KN9W RIGHTTT

Their parents make them work. These employers don’t snatch up these kids. It’s the PARENTS, probably the mom.

every extra penny counts, so including as many family members as possible is gonna raise the family’s finances and increase their chance of surviving.

@@lienisacow it’s pathetic when parents need their little children helping the finance. Fine when they are older.

@@ploopploopploopboop1887 What you probably don't realize is that the cultures with child slavery are collectivist in nature. If someone sees a kid independently grinding away, they will not respect that child. They will accuse the child of letting down their entire country by not standing in solidarity with the group. It's already hard enough for kids to consider their parents the issue, as they depend on their parents due to their stage of development, much less being told that they are letting down millions of people be standing out. And if these kids try to hash it out on their own, they have incredibly limited options- they'll likely end up selling organs or getting into prostitution. There is not much infrastructure to accommodate domestic (parental or spousal) abuse victims in these areas because that is a normalized aspect of these cultures.

The UN participates in trafficking children... And you can't force these cultures to up and change on a dime. You have to coax them into it. The first step is for Western companies to perform random, unscheduled inspections of the facilities. Or they need to pull out in the event that the foreign entities disallow them from enforcing standards. Once they get their feet in the door, they need to advance workplace safety and worker security/benefits. Children are expected to work in these cultures. They won't be playing or studying just because their factory was shut down. Rather, they will be placed into even more dangerous circumstances. So they need to keep their jobs. They just need safer jobs until the given societies are comfortable with recognizing the needs of their children (better sleep, longer mealtimes, less pressure to be perfect, free time to explore hobbies and even other professional avenues).

They used to be but they’ve become more pricier now

@@StanChunghaOrGoHome the price is human life

Compared to other online stores they are

Lol super cheap compared to any brick and mortar store around me.

That’s good I hope they’re paying they’re workers lmao cause your def not paying for quality craftsmanship or material..

@@rosestorms5396 exactly

​@@rosestorms5396let all be nude.

​@@znbentsienchilllet all be nuked.

Not all of us have 1000 dollars to spend on one handmade piece of clothing from a small company

You can easily buy cheap clothing from depop, mercari, and thrift stores. I’m so tired of you people acting like you need trendy clothes. It’s bs and all y’all do is make excuses.

Thrift stores have amazing clothes for amazing prices. Great option for low income people and families. A thrift store by mean even sells toys, books, sewing stuff, jewelry, all for a very cheap proce

​@@uhmmm125 who are "you people" is that a racist comment??

​@@rhondasherrill8788 people who act ignorant and demand to be able to buy new high quality fashionable trendy stuff.

​@@uhmmm125you do realize that not every country has things like that right? Where I live you rarely find a cheap option, trendy or not and there is pretty much no thrift stores and if there is they are vintage and expensive

dude thats just messed up..

My package being 3 weeks late is messed up
