Mines in supply chains of western carmakers linked to widespread deforestation of primary rainforest in nickel-rich lands inhabited by Tolaki people in Indonesia
I am not so much pissed at these companies than I am at corrupt shithead governments that allow the countries they are sworn to protect to be exploited. They fuck their and to some degree the future of the whole planet over for short term gains.
Yes, it’s a systemic fault of our western countries to exploit others. But ultimately our western systems only work because corrupt shitheads in other words countries allow the exploitation.
Ya you could say the same thing about those Congolese soldiers that took bribes from american and belgian capitalists to kill Patrice Lamumba and those Chilean soldiers that took bribes from american capitalists to kill Salvador Allende… Or even the Indonesiam soldiers who took weapoms and money from americans just to kick out Sukarno and then slaughter their own Indonesian neighbours…
I find it odd that tje often exploited peoples are the ones who are most OK with their exploitations…
