> I'm sick and tired of Twitter slacktivism that does not fix these issues, and the real sad part is that there's real suffering that ought to be fixed.
I agree, but I don't understand your point. This comment feels like an expression of impotent rage. And as justified as it may be I don't feel like it adds to the conversation.
This did not happen overnight and it will not be solved overnight. There always has been and always will be plenty of people and companies that will do anything to make a buck.
We can't just scrap the global economy to start over and the international community has trouble getting countries/people to acknowledge basic human rights; let alone less major ethical problems.
It's extremely difficult to get people to care about anything outside of their own daily lives and the number of things they can care about is extremely limited. I'm not a fan of "slacktivism" as you label it, but it is SOMETHING. It's frustrating that it's not more and also I'm frustrated that I won't do more myself.
So what is your thought about how to replace slacktivism and what should replace it?
