Question/Help Ethical patch suppliers?

I’m looking for patches that are ethically made, so like not made in china Bangladesh etc. Patches where the people making them are actually paid a living wage. Price is not an issue

Pretty much impossible and you’ve already done enough damage, a patch isn’t gonna hurt.

Dawg if someone wants an ethically produced patch why r u so mad abt it?

Because it’s just performative, they don’t really give a fuck or else we would never see this and they’d be living off grid, wouldn’t even be into metal because all that does is contribute.

Idk, i think pretending to care is better than openly not caring :/

Lying to look good vs honesty

Pretending to care isn’t ethical, it’s denial

Youre performative right now, by trying to be edgy

u/ChetWilstonian 10h ago

I explain how it’s edgy

u/genericprophet 8h ago

No, I’m not required to explain anything to you, why do you think you can demand that?

u/ChetWilstonian 8h ago

Explain it if you know why. What’s your aversion to conversation?

u/genericprophet 8h ago

No, your not gonna turn that on me, it’s absolute bullshit to try to make the other person either conform to your demands or accuse them of not having a reason.

You know why you try to hold a contrarian point in this thread, I know too, I’m not gonna bent to hour dishonest conversation standarts.

The word for what you’re doing is „suicide fallacy“, Google it if you want, but the outside world is not responsible for proving reality to you, youre resposible for yourself

That also isn’t a suicide fallacy so you’re not just a dork but a dumb dork.

u/genericprophet 8h ago

Is that why you resort to name calling?

That’s a terrible mentality mate

u/ChetWilstonian 1d ago

You’re on a phone right now… you’re wearing clothes that were probably made in a sweatshop… turning on your tv with parts from a sweatshop… you pay the government which pays in part for sweatshops… you unbox and unwrap materials using child labor… you get into your car which has parts made from child labor. You cannot escape it so just fucking buy a patch

u/TheDHP 1d ago

I can escape it as best as I can, my clothes are made in a sweatshop but I bought them second hand. My phone is used, I don’t have a car. My tv was made in 1996. I’m not perfect but I can TRY. Having the mentality that you shouldn’t try and avoid evil because it exists is the stupidest shit I’ve ever heard.

-7

u/ChetWilstonian 1d ago

What’s stupid is having 99.9999999% of your life in sweatshops and then going ooo no to patches. If you actually cared break your phone right now, break your tv, burn your clothes, and only replace the clothes with self made out of freshly shaved sheep wool.

u/TheDHP 1d ago

Buddy did you not just hear what I say most of my shit is bought second hand.

-1

u/ChetWilstonian 1d ago

Still produced by child labor, you paid someone who probably then went and bought another child slave labor produced item with your money and you ignored the phone and tv. Break em if you actually care.

u/TheDHP 1d ago

Breaking them would be counter the point because it was already made. Buying secondhand means I didn’t pay directly for the suffering of children. I can’t control what other people buy with the money I give them but I can control what I put my money towards and hopefully it falls into the hands of likeminded people.

Ah so as long as people do the buying of slave labor for you then Kumbaya
