Sure, no ethical consumption under capitalism.

Within the set outside of the pure ideal, there are still gradations of more and less ethical. Where entertainment is concerned, it is hard to accept people shrugging because capitalism, when there is more media being produced on this planet than any human being is ever going to have the time or ability to run out of.

We do not get to decide whether we are going to enrich the top ten thousand or so people at all ever because we do have to exist in this world, but I think there is something to be gained in exercising your ability to make ethical choices where it does not mean the difference between eating or heating or meds, or not.

Yes, we are in total agreement. I was just trying to pre-empt some counter-arguments.
