And people wonder how the Great Pacific Garbage Patch and others like it came to be 🤦
I'm here for the wired headphone -> pacific garbage patch vs lithium battery child labor -> wireless headphone fight 🍿
Don’t fool yourself. Slave labor of children is not exclusive to batteries. They make most of the world’s textiles, for example.

Did I give you the impression I was fooling myself, or were you just speaking to the wider audience?
The wording implies that the wired headphones weren’t manufactured using child slave labor.
I disagree, but I also failed English 101 so 🤷🏻♂️
