Sure I agree to a degree but choosing a product which you know uses 100% slave labor to save a penny is downright evil. (And this is exaggeration obviously before anyone butts in.)

It's a bit different to grab a snack at the counter (that's likely partly produced in your country) than wait 1-2 months for a product to even arrive. Call it a convenience factor or whatever.

That said, I don't know what kind of labor AliExpress goods use. Haven't used them for a couple years but if I knew for sure (maybe someone here knows?) they used slave labor for example I probably would just choose to use some other company (which probably is just as likely to have unethical practices in some point of their supply chain tbf).

I used it a couple of times to reach out when I felt like a more personal approach would be helpful.

It's an incredible show but I can see it not being everyone's cup of tea. It's a bit depressing or absolute joy if you enjoy seeing the 0.1% squirm but either way it's interesting, unique and doesn't waste your time. And there's a comical relief but it doesn't offset the drama.

I want to see this version as a saga like the Planet of the Apes.

Yeah maybe I've been watching too much Succession so I think this is just the play here lol.

Not a lawyer but do they have anything to lose with this suit? (Other than money spent in the lawsuit that is.)

Because these headlines might change few minds, that J&J isn't that bad. Maybe it's worth it as a marketing cost, idk.

And it should be pretty easy to get a group of people with same level of asbestos exposure who haven't used J&J's talc and compare the cancer % between the groups. That's where J&J should be focusing if they knew they were in the right.

But surprise, this is probably just throwing everything to discredit science.

It'll probably even out. More people will use multiple platforms, follow people where they are active etc.

You think the marvel writers are loaded?

I'm just saying you're targeting the wrong people with your criticism. I'm not saying the writing isn't shit, just that it's pretty understandable why it is that way and complaining like it's the writers' fault and not the studios' is playing into the studios' hands.
