Do you really want to go down that rabbit hole. Nike is but one of perhaps 1000’s of companies whose supply chain uses child labor, forced labor, etc.
While we are at it shouldn’t we boycott restaurants who serve foie gras. After all what is more cruel than shoving funnels down geese’s mouths to force feed them thereby causing the liver to double in size so the can be slaughtered for the prized liver which was diseased thereby causing tremendous pain to its host?
As far as Nike is concerned I quit buying their products and products made for their subsidiaries when they chose to make a washed up quarterback turned petulant child a spokesman.
