I’ve been a Pandora subscriber for years because it’s just a better service for music nerds imo. Their “radio” function goes way deeper into catalogs than Spotify ever did. Someone please tell me they’re not run by fascists
Thats not capitalism. Thats a person producing something and trading it for something else. Capitalism is borrowing capital from a person or entity that has more of it than you, for the promise of a share of the return if there is one. Ita a system of making money without actually working yourself. Its more nuanced than that and it has its pros and cons, but this is a lemmy comment and im just some guy
Where did the neighbor get their chickens? How were the chickens raised, transported, cared for? How are the chickens fed, is the food source ethical? Have the chickens been given hormones to increase their egg output?
I’m sure there’s a million more questions you could ask that would lead to something being unethical, but there’s way more to it than simply buying eggs.
This is what the whole show The Good Place is about.
It’s impossible to account for indirectly unethical behavior and realistically survive. The best thing to do is be directly ethical, and at least avoid contact with unethical people and companies personally.

The parent company , XM Radio, donated to Trump and gives fascists a platform. Also their pay out to artists are among the lowest.
Which is a real shame because I’ve discovered so many good non-mainstream artists thanks to Pandora’s algorithm.
D’oh!
There’s no ethical consumption under capitalism.
This is just not true. If I buy eggs from my neighbor who raises chickens, how is that unethical?
Have you seen your neighbor’s browser history? You sure you want to support that shit?
They’re really into chickens, if you know what I mean
This phrase fails as effective rhetoric if this is the intended use.
