If you're wondering who really deserves reparations, maybe the first place to start is these CHILDREN who have to mine the stuff EV batteries are made from.

@Reason10 Just to be very clear, they are employed by American and Canadian mining companies.

And the stuff that goes in electric batteries goes in all modern electronics.

The free market at work!

@CountScrofula Produce proof that this SLAVE is mining a substance that goes into regular batteries.

@Reason10 That random picture that could be from anywhere? Come on.

I was specifically speaking about rare earth metals used in things like smart phones. "Modern electronics".

But I'll be clear -any mining- that takes place outside of countries with good labour laws may involve the use of children or other forms of slave labour.

There are hundreds of mining companies that gets the materials we use to build our stuff operating out of Africa.

If you think that the only slave labour is used to build "woke" products, you're a fool and you're being manipulated.

What is a "woke" product? Are you REALLY that ignorant and piss poor at communication?
Maybe it's because I have a superior education to pretty much EVERY liberal here (although Florida third graders are smarter than the goose stepping libs here as well), but to me products are products and they are sold for market value. That does not make a product woke or not.

(Around the 1990s, goose steppers gave us the phrase "Politically Correct" which means the same as "Woke." Both terms describe a Nazi mentality.)
