It’s not lazy. You just have no perspective.
Nah, fuck that, you’re just lazy and entitled. Obviously sometimes things come up, but why does everything have to ship in less than a week? Amazon doesn’t even have the best price on 95% of shit anymore, and hasn’t for years.
You can support nazis if you want - it’s not illegal, despite every rational perspective in the world. But don’t blame your support on bullshit like “I can’t think ahead more than two days.”

> why does this large conglomerate mega corp not have any ethical small business competition
you need to reality check yourself, and either pay more for shipping, or just accept that sometimes things arrive a little bit slower than convenient. If you have amazon prime you already know about this.
IDK why people expect services that are entirely separate and different to be the exact same, it’s like they’ve never gone outside before.
As for your ethical reflection into my purchases, i do not care, as i am anti humanist. I simply do not have a leg in the race, whether i die or not is irrelevant. As for my phone, i didn’t pay any money for it, it was free. And my computer, or computers, are built by me, from hardware that i bought, with my own money.
With the exception of my thinkpad collection (entirely secondhand) most of that hardware has been purchased new, as that is generally how people buy computer hardware.
Also to be fully transparent, i don’t believe i ever stated that i am an ethical consumer (i am in some aspects, i just don’t buy very many things, especially useless things, i’m a utilitarian) but for the things i do buy, i don’t spend much time thinking about it for the aforementioned reasons.

if we’re talking branding, AMD, EVGA, asus, and a handful of other similar companies. You could argue they’re unethical if you wanted, but again, i’m literally not an ethical consumer. And also, there are no alternatives.
Buying things used/second hand subverts the ethical consumption problem from the get go. So.
