        The point I’m making that you are making it seem llke it’s a lot easier that it is to do the right thing. Not everyone has the time, money, and mental energy that you have to seek out more wholesome alternatives. Sometimes you just need something, and you need it now with minimal friction. You are very lucky and privileged that you have the time and patience to put up with the hassle of doing business with a small company. There are way too many scammers and unreliable merchants out there and it’s a game of Whack-A-Mole separating the legit small businesses from the bullshitters. I don’t know about you, but I don’t have to patience to wait up to a year for something that may or may not arrive. Some people like my girlfriend do. I don’t.

        I get where you’re coming from and try my best not to fund the fascist machine, but I’m only human, and sometimes I just want to take the easy route and order something off of Amazon. And there’s nothing wrong with that, because I know my heart is in the right place.

          Nope on every account. But hey, enjoy your cheap ass Nazi playes from Amazon I guess.

          I’m absolutely privileged, but that has nothing to do with my ability to shop any other place than Amazon.

          But hey, if you need to keep lying to yourself have it.
