You do know launching a rocket is kinda polluting the world right? We kinda ok with it because it's not a common thing to launch a rocket into space.

nobody wants the damn things he says as he types on a website hosted in a data centre, protected by cloudflare one of the biggest data centre users in the world

you don’t like data centres but people sure love youtube and facebook which comes out of them

The bottom panel is vastly different from the top

He's saying cars should have seat belts and the other guy wants to improve society

She could improve her situation (and society) by simply not buying headphones made by slaves, there are plenty of options out there, she has made a conscious choice to buy slave headphones and now has the audacity to complain?

Both the car driver and peasant had no choice about their situations

She isn't wearing headphones. She lives in a world where enough people don't care about the things she cares about to keep the system going

it’s really irrelevant, the situations are completely different

https://www.forbes.com/sites/sap/2024/05/14/why-the-rise-of-sustainability-is-a-shift-in-consumer-conciousness/

one is a safety feature, the other is a worker demanding rights, she is complaining about a product she doesn’t have to buy

they could make the cartoon relèvent by having a worker in the apple slave factory complaining but then that would ruin the strawman
