    When you are buying from a local farm, you are supporting the trump-voting farmer… 👀

    (Its The Good Place problem all over again, somewhere in the supply chain, there’s a piece of shit, and you’re still technically contributing to evil)

      If you know someone is directly a fascist, don’t buy from them if you can get the product elsewhere or it’s not needed. It’s that simple.

      Morals don’t get freely handed to you. You have to work for them.

        Its easy for me to avoid muskscum, but there are people living in remote areas where starlink is the only usabke internet option, or for people living in (non-us) authoritarian countries, or warzones, and they unfortunately would need to deal with the devil to gain internet access.

        I wouldn’t blame someone for using starlink if that’s the only option. (Like for example, Ukraine had to use Starlink because russia destoryed all the communications infrastructure)

          if you can get the product elsewhere or it’s not needed.

          There’s not yet viable star link alternatives. Yes, if someone points a gun at your head and tells you to buy something somewhat morally bad, buy it lmfao. But you bringing in extremes is quite frankly irrelevant to the average person’s buying habits.
