I'm not talking about a specific episode—I'm way too ADHD for that—rather the message of the show in general. So knock it off with the strawman argument.

Reread my reply to the other person, and you'll understand the point I'm trying to make. Capitalism makes it impossible to be a perfect person, so until the system changes, do the best you can in the meantime.

The point I'm making that you are making it seem llke it's a lot easier than it is to do the right thing. Not everyone has the time, money, and mental energy that you have to seek out more wholesome alternatives. Sometimes you just need something, and you need it now with minimal friction.

You are very lucky and privileged that you have the time and patience to put up with the hassle of doing business with a small company. There are way too many scammers and unreliable merchants out there and it's a game of Whack-A-Mole separating the legit small businesses from the bullshitters. I don't know about you, but I don't have to patience to wait up to a year for something that may or may not arrive. Some people like my girlfriend do. I don't.

I get where you're coming from and try my best not to fund the fascist machine, but I'm only human, and sometimes I just want to take the easy route and order something off of Amazon. And there's nothing wrong with that, because I know my heart is in the right place.
