Hershey, Nestlé, Mars and Other Chocolate Makers Named in Child Slavery Class Action Lawsuit UD:

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

Technically they are not wrong. It's on those countries to have strong labour laws and stop child labour. Just like when China was coming up not too long ago and had businesses using people like slaves making shyt for apple and nike.

Africa is exploitable because of our leaders and this is on them as well. They let foreign companies exploit locals for cheap labour. The chocolate makers can get all the bad pub but they didn't make these situations. They exploit them because they exist.

Even if they claim that these companies run the entire show it's still shows that there is no local government oversight and they would need complicit support to traffic children in a foreign country. I'm not taking the blame away from them. Just stating that most of it falls on these nations. Same shyt happens with coltan mining. You can get a contract from the government set up your operation and hire kids. Who's fault is that? The foreign prospector, the poor child or the government?

We not protecting our own people.

The fault didn't end up landing on these corporations even though they got bad publicity.

Africa is exploitable because of our leaders and this is on them as well. They let foreign companies exploit locals for cheap labour. The chocolate makers can get all the bad pub but they didn't make these situations. They exploit them because they exist.

Which is why Ghana is asking for a cocoa exporting organization to control the trade out of Africa.

Even if they claim that these companies run the entire show it's still shows that there is no local government oversight and they would need complicit support to traffic children in a foreign country. I'm not taking the blame away from them. Just stating that most of it falls on these nations.

Link?

You can Google slave labour and Nike. They had tons of issues in the 2000's as did Apples I'm the 2010's. Because they contract out work to factories that would abuse workers. All they did when shyt would come to light is move production to another place, cancel contracts.

I hate to be pessimistic, but there's nothing that will come out of this even if a boycott was possible. The best will be an apology followed by some bullshyt press run lying to us about their labour.

 

[loyola llothta]

Nestle is worse than that.
Look up their shyt bag history.

fukk nestle.


Art Barr

Yep.

That's good. Looking at the branches in those threads it shows that they own so much...I'm going to try to do what I can though.

 

[MischievousMonkey]

That's insane and sickening.

Thanks for the list of Nestlé brands. Fortunately, I don't consume any of their shyt. Is there any similar diagrams for the 6 other chocolate makers involved?

Isn't there a way to bring the lawsuit to the United Nations instead of an American justice court?

 

[Secure Da Bag]

I’ll protest with my wallet. I refuse to buy any their products going foward . I need to look up all the brands they own.

Remember. Those are conglomerates. So you need to know ALL the companies they own.

In theory, I agree with you. But no African nation is like China, in terms of control both domestic and foreign. They may both be fruits, but it basically comparing apples to oranges.

 

[Art Barr]

Yep.

Props.

Hope others view this.
