    Most people don't follow every aspect of global conflicts. To say they were "cool with the stuff..." is a bit disingenuous. Learning about a specific situation that is ongoing and adapting your beliefs to the new information is exactly what people should do.

    But also, maybe he did know about it and only gave a shit recently, I really don't know.

      I'm talking more about the horrific labor practices that have been in mainstream press multiple times over the years and the fact that the place is just a huge unsustainable environmental disaster. These are pretty old, cold takes even by western media standards, but like I said maybe he's just too busy with his own shit and never knew about it.

        Very fair! Too busy playing in plenty of other places equally as evil and unsustainable probably.
