i don't want to live in the woods, i want a world in which people who make iphones don't kill themselves

If iPhone manufacturing is your only gripe with this world we find ourselves in, I'd say we've got it pretty good.

i want all those things. my point was "if you dont like the system, leave" is a bad argument
