    Comparing Brendan eichtoo Hitler doesn’t seem logically coherent but let’s just use your fringe example. We do actually continue to use shit invented by Hitler all over the world to this day. Volkswagen to give an example. Lemmy is made by tankies. So… The answer is that so long as the thing is sufficiently useful. Yes.

      I don’t use VW or brave. That’s my point. It’s easy to wave away suffering if you benefit from that suffering.

        You use thousands of products. A majority of them probably have some heinous shit behind their executives.

          You’re absolutely right, but I try to make my contributions to suffering as low as I can.
