New Shein slop (yewtu.be)
submitted 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

A Western person shared this "bombshell" Shein video to me and maybe I'm dumb, but the conditions look pretty ok to me considering the industry?

It has the ominous music and all the commentators send her wishes for "being safe" in true racist westoid fashion. I kept looking to see some grave bad conditions, but only thing she has there is uncited and unverified text next to pictures about the warehouses that don't seem any different to something like Amazon.

I am not saying fast fashion is good, but at the end of the video she concludes that maybe these working conditions are behind the manufacturing boom in China, so the video has a pretty clear propaganda angle. I am also not saying there isn't issues with labor rights in China, just like everywhere.

But do a video of a sewing factory in Portugal next? Or one of the places in the Med where immigrants do farm labor. Or let's talk about how berry pickers were basically trafficked in wholesome Nordic country Finland and forced to live in inhumane conditions and never got paid.

The youtuber has other videos about "how to get rich". This one has a million views in two weeks, she clearly found her angle for getting rich on grifting for the West.
