Fictitious Capital
Also (trigger warning: sexual assault) I’m sure we’re all going to be surprised to learn what Lipton middle-management has been up to in Kenya
You know those white kids who overzealously scream about white people with dreads? This is the tea they drink.
God damn. I do both those things…
Also what kind of trees? Cocoa trees? Tea trees? On plantations? That you force the locals to work at as a form of “cheap” labour?
This is just so monstrous. I don’t know what marketing executive came up with this idea of trying to greenwash their plantations like this, but they deserve to be hit by a bus. Absolutely soulless. This is the sort of thing that would be considered “too unrealistically cruel and inhumane” for a movie satirising how capitalism does exactly this sort of shit all the time.
Synergy.
Yeah but that’s one teabag. It comes in a cardboard box with 200 of it’s friends.
that also have this same design
cardboard box
i meant its 200 friends
What does the box look like though? If the brand is obvious from the box then I don’t think it’s a big deal if the packets inside only have a tiny brand logo. You already bought it and know what it is from the external packaging.
The greenwashing is almost certainly bullshit though I agree. Lipton was owed by Unilever until recently and even NATOpedia lists Unilever’s crimes.
Remember that Mr Beast campaign about planting trees that every YouTuber hopped on? I wonder what happened with that. I wonder how many trees were actually planted with care and not some shmuck throwing an acorn into the dirty.
