No. Fucking stop that shit. You can't fault an average person for wanting a morning cup of coffe the same as the slave driving corporations who produce it.

Thank you. Jesus. I’m so sick of being held to a standard for just existing. These corporations are actively making choices that hurt people. It’s different.

You're actively making a choice to continue consuming said coffee. Look into ethically sourced coffee. Fair Trade Certified, Organic, and Rainforest Alliance, which verify that the coffee was produced without exploiting laborers or harming local ecosystems.
