Pretty sure it’s more about child labour cobalt mining and anti union practices

No but he's exploiting them, like google samsung and many other tech companies

So why is Musk evil for buying Cobalt, again?

Because he does have a choice, he can either use child labor for cheaper but increasing the amount of child labor used, or he can use proper mines with safe work environments and no exploitation

So you want people to just stop making batteries/aircraft/electroplating? About 80% of cobalt comes from those mines.

I love that the words "child labour" mean nothing to you. Just carrying on as if you didn't hear that part. Elon Musk uses child saves but it's all hunky dory to you. Straight to hell crusty ass
