Do you seriously believe that anybody would be crazy enough to check other peoples clothes with a medical scanning device? Thank you.
We all have to exist in this system whether we like it or not, and unless you’re living 100% off grid in a hovel in the woods, you’re contributing to the slow ascent of fascism in one way or another.
When you know that an action supports fascism you do not do it and you warn others about it. Pretending to support fasism, is at least in this case really stupid.
So Nike sells limited edition sneakers that sell for far above retail in after market sales. That’s where medical device imaging is coming in. It’s weird but no weirder than like, beanie babies were. If you didn’t know that now you do.
You also catastrophically missed the point. Getting pissy because you see somebody wearing any particular brand is pretty ridiculous. All of them are supporting the regime in one way or another, you are, simply by existing and contributing labor to society. You can’t pinpoint a fascist by their Nike’s anymore than you could pinpoint one by literally any other shoe. Unless they happen to be police tactical boots (which are often made by Under Armor).
Holy crap do I really need to use the /s behind the first comment. I thought it was so bloody obvious, that it did not need to happen. The idea to walk around town, scan people sneakers and if they are legit Nike call them fascists. To me that idea is just so insane that it is funny.
At the same time, there are companies, which are worse and it is worth boycotting them. If you do so, then stand by that and do not buy some fakes. Seriously imagine trying to convince some guy that Nike sucks, while wearing full fake Nike gear. That is again a funny idea to me.
You didn’t take away the point SippyCup (I think) wanted to make.
Most of us live in a world where we have to go to a grocery store and buy food. I cannot possibly be expected to research the CEO of every product I buy and even if I did, my choices are limited to what is available in my store(s).
When I learn of a company doing bad things, I shun them. But there are also conglomerates like nestle that own half the brands in my local store and I can’t really avoid them. I “have to exist in this system whether [I] like it or not.”
Sippy was not supporting buying nike or supporting fascism, but was instead telling you to not blame your peers in the “lower classes” for the issue – those who might buy a shoe without knowing the CEO is fascist, or in some cases still buying crackers from a company they do know is fascist because they have no choice.
Instead, be mad at the fucking fascists. “Turn your justifiably angry energy upwards…” is the part of the quote above that you seem to have missed.
