I noticed people started to use the idea of “no ethical consumption under capitalism” to just be completely irresponsible and just stop trying at all. I don’t think the point of that is to give up completely lol

    Yeah, it also sucks because if you try to explain that "emotional labor" has a specific meaning it makes you the bad guy for invalidating someone.

    People also use it as a defense from having to do self-crit.
