Perhaps to you the saying is a platitude, but that seems subjective

Wow, everything is relative. Do you have any other wise things to say? It's in the eye of the beholder maybe? There is no truth? There are no absolutes? Want to whip out some tautologies or falsely attribute some quotes to Einstein?

If you view ethics as a binary, then sure. If you view ethics as a complex and nuanced spectrum, well, not so much.

Again with the "everything is relative". So actually, we're living in paradise right now, because relative to 5B years ago, earth would be inhospitable. But we are also living in hell because things could be so much better.

Everything is nuanced. Of course it is. Which is why the phrase "there is no ethical consumption under capitalism" is false. You're just confirming it yourself with your "everything is relative" and "to the esteemed members of the ivory tower with completely formed and immensely folded brains, ethics is an intricate and nuanced spectrum".

What a reductionist take, especially considering the paragraph you'd written just above it.

Yes, thank you for confirming that you understood nothing of what I wrote.

Wow. What an asshole.

I think the chip on your shoulder has a chip on its shoulder.
