  • No it is forcing children as young as seven to work in mines in the DRC

    This is pretty inflammatory.

    If I ask you to post me a purchased rear derailleur mech and you decide to do it by killing a baby seal and using its pelt as wrapping paper for the derailleur, am I forcing baby seals to die?

  • It might be inflammatory but it is the reality that the surging global demand for cobalt from EV's is creating a child labour issue, this is well documented and reported

    Your statement was also inflammatory no?
