There is slave labor at aome point in pretty much every product you use. The cotton used for your shirt, the cocoa in your chocolate bar, the strawberry you had in your salad today, all likely had forced labor to some degree. Even the cartoon you watched last night might have been animated bu some korean child.

Yeah it’s actually wild to find out how much of animation got exported to nations that we aren’t even allowed to trade food too.

Lul that last point is so recent too. Crazy that north Korea was just animating for these big companies.

Here’s a CNN link that talks about how they were animating for shows like invincible. Iirc the people behind the show didn’t know but it’s a symptom of the problem with outsourcing everything.
