    In the face of exploitative capital, blaming the consumer is on the same tier of nonsensical rhetoric as victim blaming.

    It’s not the fault of people buying bottled water for Nestle’s human rights violations, nor is it the fans’ fault that Swift’s business model is exploitative and nonethical.

      You are telling me you can’t live without going to a Taylor Swift concert. Capitalism is the origin of many pains, but this one isn’t one of them.
