      Somehow I doubt they’ll ban commodity imports from the Global South. Imagine what would happen to european chocolate without French Imperial cocoa.

      On the off-chance that you are just struggling with reading comprehension, I’d be happy to help you understand what they mean.

      We here at hexagonal leather daddies dot net do not believe western governments when they claim to care about issues like this and instead assume that they will use these regulations disingenuously as a cudgel against their geopolitical rivals without substantiating their accusations, while ignoring actual proven incidences of whatever they’re pretending to care about today in allied countries or by western companies.

        Is this a question or an answer?

              Do you generally struggle with reading comprehension? Because nowhere did he say that he forced labour was good, he just said that the EU is not going to do anything useful with this ban (like for instance, making sure that H&M and Puma don’t use forced labour in the making of their products, since those are European companies) but instead willn just cause Europe to double down on the idiotic “Xinjiang is litterally a concentrationcamp” like a lot of Euro-leaders have been claiming baselessly for years at this point.

                Well he didn’t gave a clear answer either. I do think getting a straight answer for some basic human right question shouldn’t be this hard. But I guess it is.

                  It’s obviously true, if the ban were to be applied equally, which it will not be, because fucking everything relies on forced labor and you won’t “cut that out” of the supply chain without demolishing the world economic system. So your choices now are either 1) believe those silly hexbears love forced labor and slavery or 2) understand that maybe this ban is a political tool rather than a moral one
