    foremost proponent of corporate ethics

    abandoning a pledge to pay direct suppliers a living wage by 2030

            Corporations inherently have no ethics or morals. There’s only regulations and the ethics/morals imposed by the people running it.

        Unpopular opinion: many wealthy white gay men may as fucking well be wealthy white straight men when it comes to their “fuck you, got mine” politics.

      That way, in a few years, they can announce a bigger commitment for positive PR that they have no intention of keeping.

    This is why we need legislation. Companies are perfectly happy to green wash. Marketing is cheap.
