Now you're hitting us with the hard questions.
Would I throw away my phone right now if it was made by a slave? I'll be straight up honest here: It's not something I think about other than the fact that it's a Samsung smartphone.
Would you throw away your electronics right now if it was made by a third-world worker in slavery-like conditions somewhere in Southeast Asia?
Sigh...
It's an unfortunate reality that for you and I to enjoy products, including electronics, thousands of people in some random factory hidden away from the public eye are working overtime to manufacture parts and build the phone from those parts.

So you come here, tell people what they can and cannot post, insult people who disagree and tell them not to talk about your country.
Besides, in the same post you tell me to feel free to attack US media agents and at the same time you seem to forbid me from talking about the US. Very contradictory, you need to tidy up your mind.

I’m insulting you because clearly you’re mentally challenged. Also why do you care? I’ve literally seen your post with Logiko, you basically insult him all the time. Can’t handle the heat big boy?
also my comment was coherent. Attack the U.S. media agents talking about your country and sowing division. Refrain from talking about U.S actual politics. It’s not hard to follow. I attacked the Russian OP, but didn’t talk about Russian internal politics did I?

Very intelligent and honest response, thank you. Asking people to throw out their stuff is crazy.
With me, the biggest reason I just hate buying a lot of new products is I know it was made through shitty labor. Heck, same with food.
I want the people making the products I buy to be well paid, healthy, and happy, so I know they're making the best products possible. Tried to find ethically sourced shoes once. GAVE UP. It was that close to impossible to find shoes under $100 that came from guaranteed good labor.
We can't ask people to stop buying goods, or starve, but we need to admit that we haven't changed as a society. The USA and Europe just continued to outsource the slavery to other countries, and that's a legitimate reason they despise the USA and Europe.
I love how Oda focuses on how gross slavery is, because so many people in our world act like it's over just because they don't see it. In a lot of cases, the USA itself just transitioned from plantations into prisons, and made up a bunch of laws to arrest black people after the Civil War, so they could use prisoners as slaves.
The whole Celestial Dragon's Celestial Tribute bullshit is pretty much "dumb rich jerks taxing the crap out of poor people so they can take away their rights", and, sadly, that's the history of a lot of countries.
Only way we will overcome evil like that is by being good to each other, and overcoming that division and discrimination, IMO.

Just try to understand that right now, the same people working in factories, creating all of the goods that we use and enjoy, made the decision to work there so they can provide for the families back home.
It's likely that without their current job, their families (including the kids) might end up becoming homeless, and job opportunities are harder to come by and pay jack sh1t in those countries.
The sunshine and the rainbow never shine upon the poorer countries 😮

I am not just randomly calling him a retard and shit, I usually try to prove him wrong and I can discuss with him for hours. You basically just entered a discussion randomly calling people retards for disagreeing with you. Attacking US media would also entail talking about the US, so it is still not coherent. You also can't just barge in here telling people what they can or can't talk about.
A rather unrelated article, but someone is free in China after 15 years in detention.

So let's talk about American journalism instead of wasting time with random foulmouths. A couple of days ago, right after the attempt on Trump, news agencies were saying it was a gun fight between two random people with no link to Donald. They probably weren't 100% sure about what had happened, but their first instinct was spreading a tale that favoured their political allegiance. Truly ethical journalism.
Redirecting and outright lying about the actual incident in a published article isn't the worst thing that could happen. Sometimes, an article gets published the first time in a news site and a couple days later, the article somehow gets deleted...and thus, a source of proof for an incident or a story, gone, just like that.
