My biggest issue with these influencers was that they were acting like they were "journalists" or something by asking questions but none of them pointed out that this was the 'innovation factory' and that not all the factories actually look like this. They literally tried to lead us to believe this is how the entirety of Shein operates when this is literally the Shein press tour factory
pretty sure she was also exposed for being fake in a article because she wasn't really asking the good questions and as well was easily lead into believing that shien was doing everything right and that americans were just talking for no reason even tho ofc it wasn't the actual factory uk
Agreed,they were only showed the best and nothing less. But the influencers swallowed it down with no complaint. Fuck,answering the questions. How about proving you don’t exploit children and own a sweatshop?
Ok so if you boycott Shein then all the children that were being paid 3c per clothing item won't be paid anything and will die of starvation. The only reason people buy from Shein is because it's way cheaper, so if they put up the price, people will just buy from regular shops.
Don't forget that 99% of all fabrics jade from Bamboo are actually also just polyester... Just derived from a different source material. And really, the process and methods of making polyester from bamboo is actually worse than just making it from oil etc. Note, there are Some fabrics made from bamboo that hasn't been turned to polyester but, it's a much much harder process and much more expensive.
@@sb-jp2vwwell, China is probably almost on the same level as North Korea. It's just that they're more clever than them and know how to gain people's trust.
Yep or the one concentration camp that had a school and kids playing and it was shown around to say “the holocaust? What holocaust? They’re having a great time here!”
thats not shipping? Its mainly done by robots. Other companies are intimidated by SheIn. Every other mainstream company uses slave labour and the clothes dont even fit. They cant stand that robots are creating clothes that actually fit womens shapes.
Actually insane!!! How deluded and privilaged! The slavery, the conditions in these factories, the amount of plastic and pollution for fast fashion. UNBELIEVABLE
YES! When my sister told me about shein and downloading it and seeing others buying from it always felt sketchy I go to the thrift store and buy my clothes there People say that shein’s quality is shit and their clothes are low quality
@@quit3118got a pair of really expensive Levi’s for only 10 bucks. I will genuinely always buy my clothes second hand because there’s no reason not to.
@@PappyeggsI mean, there is one reason. It’s like buying a 10 dollar cup of Starbucks. It’s a status symbol thing - for how others look at you, and the name. Similar with new clothes from designers / companies like this. Don’t get me wrong, I’m wearing a T shirt I got for free at some casino from a road trip years ago. So, it’s not really my thing.
Thank you for your hilarious but very serious reporting on this issue. Comedy can be extremely powerful in attacking stupidly and inhumane practise. Btw I do like your uploads on other matters. It's a shame that we have to use comedy to highlight this nonsense and bad doing.
i buy from she in cause it was the nicest at the most affordable and I could see how it fit women in the reviews. They are very good at picking good styles. There needs to be a change but I hope its all built with robots.
Journalists:shein uses child labour Data: shein uses child labour The CHINESE GOVERNMENT: Shein uses child labour Influencers: do you use child labour? Shein: nuh uh Influencers: 👍 understandable
Man you have to understand that the situation is so bad even the government come out and say “ fuck the profit, you are dead for crossing the line”. As an Asian I can tell you, it’s bad bad.
I worked a factory job once. Temp agency for low income people. We were in a hot warehouse with an assembly line, packed side by side putting Budweiser bottles full of cobwebs from one out of date box into a new box (they were empty base bottles and would be boiled before product went into them) but it was constant. And full time. We got one lunch break. It was horrible. And in America. I was 16 and a drop out. Only reason I got in was cause my mother worked one too
Want to add, I work a bakery now. The difference is awesome and I love it. Been working it for half a year. I would pick a jammed pack food industry over those warehouses anyday If it’s so easy, why aren’t people getting those jobs as first jobs? Why are the only people going to these temp agencies happen to be single mothers or poverty line? Because if you’ve got it good, you have better options. No one would work them if they could work something better.
The other reasons people get them is pay. Some companies pay nicely, but most don't. If you ever need to work like that again, pick an electronics manufacturer that does in-house testing. Since the electronics have to be tested in air conditioning, you'll be air conditioned too. Usually pays better than a basic goods warehouse as well. Depending on the company, the benefits are nice, too
This is something we should be talking about. Shein is probably being attacked by competing fashion companies/ I genuinely believe they are using robots.
@@durpnurp7859for context, I sew and embroider stuff, and do a side business for plush toys. The pattern cutting/lasering part like they showed on video? Yeah definitely machine operated. Even embroidery is machine sewn for sure, even I use digital embroidery machines for my works. However... Do robots have enough precision to operate, sew and piece together every single unique piece of said fabric patterns? Cutting pieces of fabric over and over again is repetitive and simple, so machines can replicate it, but to piece together, measure the seams and sew takes much more precision with your hand. Sewing machines, unlike embroidery machines, are not fully automatic and require someone to press the pedal for it to keep going.
@@durpnurp7859you’re brainwashed. They definitely use human labor regardless of what you choose to ignore. Did you even watch the video? This was not their actual factory
Shein reached out to these influencers to say "There is no war in Ba Sing Se" and promptly left them on Read once they got what they wanted from them. There's so much evidence of Shein being shady to outright violating human rights out there (SWOOP made an amazing documentary about Shein that's available for free on TH-cam so no excuses!) but they took the trip/the bag/exposure anyway. They didn't care until they were called out and the loudest "investigative journalist" influencer (Dani) doubled and tripled down like a fucking clown before they got humbled. Not all money is good money. Due diligence isn't optional, it is required with everything. This is a good example of what not to do as a Content Creator.
No truer words have ever been said.. about this topic 😋 “Influencers are so stupid, they think everyone else in the world is just as stupid as they are” 😂😂😂😂 ❤❤❤❤
Those influencers they are so stupid, they have no idea about working hard , they never worked hard in they lives, except one work in they influencer live - Dubai porta potty job.
It's not just SheIn. It's most large companies. You don't think some stuff Walmart carries comes from places like this? That's why if you can, shop small and shop local. If you buy a $5 item from me it makes my day and helps feed my family. If you buy$5 or even thousands they don't even care or notice.
Exactly, I’m shocked at the amount of people that don’t understand/know that most big companies cause pollution, use child labour and have terrible work in conditions..like um did u think shein singlehandedly cause global warming 💀💀 supporting small businesses is definitely the way to go
I will always try to shop local. But sometimes you feel like you have no choice but to give your money to the Chinese when you barely have any yourself.
@@psychedelicpayroll5412 well that's kind of contradictory since a lot of American trade goes to China also because the food industry is a lot cheaper when you get your resources from China then from America since export and making the item is a lot cheaper in China than America. So it's kind of like a both way road
@@drivethrupoetI don't even think college has anything to do with it, people from all ages, college or not, know this is like those empty, fake towns around North Korea showing "how good their citizens live"
And this is one of the reasons I stopped ordering from shein.( besides the child abuse and getting paid like crab) And for people who will say that “shein has affordable clothes and I can’t afford to buy other brands” Bruh. I’m cheap and I go to thrift stores, and by going thrifting I can find clothes with good quality and a affordable price. You could buy hugo boss for 4€ cmon, stop being lazy and go out. Not only is it healthy for you but you’ll find long lasting and beautiful clothes unlike shine clothes which can rip apart any second. And I would really appreciate people to stop ordering from shein since now you will find shein clothes everywhere in thrift stores which the material is shit and they cost more than the original price.
Mhm, my mom goes to the thrift store and so am I! We also donate there! I have found some pretty good stuff there, I plan to get a job and buy some new clothes (16 btw)
Not only that, but shien clothes won’t last you long AT ALL. Clothes used to be an investment when making clothes took so long and was so expensive, you needed that material to last you for quite a while. I promise these shien addicts that investing in proper more expensive pieces is the way to go for certain clothing items. I thrift most of my stuff, but for my platforms and main fashion statements, I buy from quality companies that Ik I will get at least 5-7 years out of!!! It’s really not a cheaper option to pick shien and keep having to buy theirs cheap clothes. I’m so tired of that fucking lie. It’s a lie they tell themselves to justify what it is. It’s ok to shop fast fashion, the problem is there are so many and you choose THIS ONE? Why?
The problem is everyone has different ressources around the world. Some places might not have thrift stores. But I agree if you can you should not buy directly from fast fashion brands. I always try to see if thrift stores have what I need before I shop fast fashion.
@@EnchanterBitteri agree these items do not last long, but I feel that it’s not just shein? H$M? Cotton on? All those brands are all the same. I don’t have Walmart in my country but I’m pretty sure they do all that too. Even furniture stores like IKEA is notoriously known in my country as a bran that u buy if u want to switch ur furniture out every year.
What sucks is SHEIN is one of the only brands that has clothes that fit my size correctly and did not cost an arm and a leg, I was heartbroken when I heard this about the company.
Best thing you can do is buy from independent sellers (not as costly as one may think / look for the 'non-flashy' ones). I am not + sized but going to local markets you'll find beautiful, BEAUTIFUL hand-made clothes (and you can tell they're hand made by the pride the sellers have in their craft/little stories that come with them) that are sold for reasonable amounts (+ last a hell of a lot longer). Go back to what clothing used to be (an art form). Hell you could even commission your own beautiful clothing.
my mom ordered something from shein for me, and she said the clothes smelled and the packaging smelled. the two sweaters seemed like they were made from cheap materials. I decided that be the last I ever buy from shein. I just don't trust where they get their fabrics. I never brought from Shein before, and this was the only time because I was curious what their clothes were like. if that influencer said that they use recycled materials, then why did my sweaters feel like they were made from toilet paper or something? no girl, they paid you to make the company look good. so of course they are going to say what you want to hear. that is how companies run . so don't fake that apology that you weren't aware of their working conditions and labor laws. you did it because people caught on to you being a puppet for shein. you didn't bother to do research because it was more important to get paid and show the glamours side of fashion. when in reality fashion comes at a price.
I don't know, the clothes I get there are pretty good quality, actually. Sure, I've gotten a bad egg or two, but I have clothes that are over three years and still look great! Also, I do understand why shein is bad, but as a broke person in a third world country where dollars are a fortune, it's a good deal.
The absolute hypocrisy to go there as a POC and act like you believe it's all peachy and not a press model factory and basically you promote slavery work in exchange for a free vacation. Shame on them! I hope they lose all their fan base
I don’t see where the hypocrisy comes into play just bc they’re POC? like you said slavery so are you comparing child labor to slavery as in the Atlantic slave trade? I’m confused asf.
@@michinsaeggi-dakcho it's comparable. those children live in poverty, that's why they have to work instead of going to school. Their safety is not a priority and they work 12, 14 hour days... I'm sure you've heard all this before. The only relevant difference is that didn't get kidnapped. But they don't have another option unless they want to starve.
Its really crazy these creators would put themselves in this position. Its sickening. Thanks layze for calling them out. As a great man once said which ill now repeat to these shit influencers shut your ass up. 😂
what confuses me is how everyone seems to assume all the clothes they buy at Walmart, Target, Kmart etc, are all sewn by happy Americans being paid a good wage, They're all made in the same freaking place, in the same freaking conditions, but there's a huge mark-up put on the clothes in US, Canada, UK, Aus etc. That's why we pay so much more for the same stuff in our own countries. Shein is cutting out the middle-man so poor folks have access to affordable clothes that actually look nice. if you go to Target or Walmart instead, you're paying more for clothes that come from the same darned place. (and no, thrift storing isn't possible for many people these days - it's often still very expensive, or anything that's nice is already bought by wealthier people who do it because it's ''cool'' to thrift).
Actually, there is a difference buying directly from Sheen (or Temu or whoever) and from a retail outlet in the UK or USA or Australia outsourcing from China . What is manufactured for the West has to abide by certain laws, and health & safety. There are grading levels. You can do this research on Google. But if you buy directly online from Shein, they have their own manufacturers and they don’t have to answer to corporations in the west.
It's all the same garbage and it's all tainted with the blood and sweat of poor people and kids. We shouldn't be looking for "something that looks nice" but rather something that's going to last a very long time. Also, if it's cheap, you won't feel bad to chuck it out after a week if it's "not in fashion" anymore or if it's coming apart at the seams. It is unfortunately a very deep seated problem with our self image and self worth that these companies exploit because we want to make ourselves look like we're not poor and can afford finer fashion. Every time you buy a piece of clothing or a pair of shoes you have to remind yourself that someone somewhere suffered to produce that item. Respect it, try to mend it where possible and remember you don't need new clothes all the time to be a valuable person.
@@spongerobert I just saw your comment. Things that will last (ie well made) fall into the same category because they’re bought up by people who thrift shop for fun so they can show their “thrift haul” on TikTok. Where I live anyway, you get dirty stained clothes for a pretty penny. I spent $10 on a pair of pants from a dump shop the other day as my daughter urgently needed new pants and that’s the cheapest we could get at such short notice 😱 It just annoys me that people come down so hard on Shein when almost all the clothes people access these days are made in those same conditions. Yet my kids and I, having very little money, have bought some lovely stuff on Shein that we will wear until it falls apart (so far nothing has fallen apart!). The rest of our clothes usually come from “sharing shelves” which is where people dump their old clothes for the poor in the community. Almost everything we own has come from the sharing shelves over the years, aside from a trip to the dump shop in emergencies, plus old family stuff that’s been handed down for decades now. And our special stuff we bought off Shein. Edit to clarify: we are more extreme than most when it comes to wearing things and mending them until they’re literal shreds. I’m 35 and am still wearing bras from my teens, as well as some of my grandmas old bras, and wearing clothes my mum bought second hand back in the 80s when she was young that have been re-mended all these decades. This is poverty in NZ. Meh.
"We asked the supervillain if he was a bad guy and he said no so he’s good you guys" 🤦🏾♀these people i'm honestly not even gonna say gullible bcs we've all seen the clips from the actual shein workshops i honestly think they did it for the money bcs there is no way they're that dumb to believe that this is an actual factory and from what i've heard this is a "Pilot factory"
I was curious so I looked it up and found a CNN post about the trip. Dani Carbonari, to my knowledge, is still the only one that's terminated her contract. The other ones have either not spoken up or are still defending the "But I didn't see anyone starving soooooo it must be ok" idea which is outrageous to say the least.
Feels like something that would happen in the hunger games. Capitol people visiting the districts. These influencers ARE the Capitol people of this world whether they want to believe it or not. I’ve been so tempted to buy from Shein. Some really cute stuff at affordable prices. I’m currently trying to lose a massive amount of weight and will eventually need a new wardrobe. It’s tempting as a broke person to buy a shit ton of stuff from them when the day comes and just have a spree getting to wear all the things I never could. But I just can’t justify this. I won’t. I wish there were cheap and cute options just like shein that were actually decent to the humans that work there
I hear people talk all the time about stuff not fitting consistently because the laser that cuts will cut the top shirt differently than the one of the bottom of the pile. Robots are great but that's not the fully story. No need to be snarky or rude to me. You are defending a shitty company so it's weird you are defending them so hard. I'm glad your cheaply made clothes get you compliments though. They do have some cute stuff. Wonder why it is hated...watch the video? lol@@durpnurp7859
Never ordered something from them. And that was before I knew about the harsh conditions these people have to work in. For me, it all looks nice but flimsy because here in my country it’s full of Chinese clothes shops with the same stuff. I bought a Coach wallet for Srd 100, which equals to $3 based on our currency 😂. Here in Suriname 🇸🇷, it’s multi cultural and most clothing stores are owned by Chinese. It’s affordable and sad at the same time since most of the population here can’t afford “normal “ (brand) clothes 😞. So we just go with the flow since we have no knowledge how the clothes were made. The stores are always busy because that’s what 80% of the population can really afford to spend on their children and themselves 😒 what a dilemma. On another note: thanks for another great video Layze 🤣 you never fail to make me laugh 💯
Don’t feel bad if this is what you can afford . It is the responsibility and in the conscience of western buyers . We should boicot those brands . I can gladly say I have never bought from those Chinese clothing brands .
I used to follow her a long time ago, she is a very toxic girl! As a plus-size she should be all about body positivity but she had a video of her talking how she got her ideal man who all the “skinny’s liked him” and that “ she got him thought she was a fat chick” literally ended the video as a f*** you to all them skinny gals! It was terrible!!! And she has no confidence because she likes bringing people who are thinner down! It’s just to toxic and hateful to other people who don’t look like her.
it's literally the same as when people travel to north korea they are only allowed to enter one city in the entire country. and it is completely empty malls and restaurants with workers smiling 24/7 and only serving those couple tourists.
shein being so hot right now is wrong in a million ways but recently I also realized that thrift stores and gently used stores will be FULL of this bullsh*t in a few years
Layze, I LOVE watching your videos bc you ain't EVER scared to speak your mind plus your sense of humor is the best! Just wanted to say thank you for all your awesome content, I'm so glad I found you!
when I worked at Dollar General the regional manager would bring corperate to the newest, nicest stores that weren't busy and avoid the worst stores in town that were messy, super busy, drama, etc. This reminded me of that, they show them best spot and chit chat bsing the whole time, no actual real questions and work.
Why is your channel not at 1,000,000+ viewers?! You are hilarious and so freaking on point! Thank you so much for these videos you make my petty side laugh daily! Also… Hello, China is a communist country… do you think they showed you was real?!? I’m sure they were led the entire time, if they were serious they would wander further away and talked to real workers. Can you go after TEMU next… these “influencers” are clueless…
FYI, buying clothes from a locally-owned clothing store will support the business owner, but it makes no difference in the source of the clothing. No matter what you are shopping for, read labels.
And look for upcyclers, who make amazing, unique and original clothes from cut up, cleaned excess clothing. Who wants to look like everyone else? It’s rad wearing a one-of-a+kind garment
I was taken by surprise when I stared getting Shein at the top of my search results any time I started looking for any specific clothing item. It must have been around a year or so ago, and they often were the only place I could find selling a specific thIng in my size. They *always* had what I wanted, and it was all *so* cheap. I never bought anything, because it was very clearly dodgy, the epitome of “if it looks too good to be true…..” Now I’ve stared noting a similar thing with Temu, but not for clothing, for other stuff. And again, they always seem to have what I’m looking for, and they’re always right at the top of the Google search results. It’s very specific stuff too, like entomology equiptment, things you just wouldn’t expect to find on a website like that, and which usually there are just a few places online selling. They’ve definitely got their search engine optimisation down 🤨 I think Google has some responsibility here too, because I can easily see why websites like these have become so popular since they’re the first shops that seem to appear when you search for so much stuff.
Yo, the last minute of this video had me in shambles 😂😂😂😂 on a serious note though, something needs to be done to stop these mega factories. I’ve never bought at temu or Shein, but I have purchased from fashion nova. I need to reevaluate my shopping
In certain countries kids work to provide for their families 😢 but even just that one dollar they make can be the difference between eating or not . If they shut down these factories so many poor families will be out of a job 😢 this breaks my heart . I wish we could send money to help them not have to work like that 😢
No one said we need to shut down the factories, just that shein need to pay their adults good so the children don’t need to help pay for their parents. Shein also need to better their environment and rights for the employees, like having actual decent working time, having a good pay for the job and letting them actually rest
Well, according to the communist party of China, poverty in China has been eridicated 🎉 just in time for their 100th anniversary too. They also just passed a law saying you can't record or talk about poverty. You're a poor person and you did the best you could with what you had and recorded the wedding? Arrested🎉 yes, that actually happened. you can't show people are poor in China (even though 65% of them fall into the poverty category).
I spat my drink when they said that theyre pleasantly surprised to hear a lot of the stuff is automatic. For context, I sew and embroider stuff, and do a side business for plush toys. The pattern cutting/lasering fabric part like they showed on video is the START of the clothes production. Its already clear that they've completely cut off the major parts of putting the pieces together. Lasering pieces of the fabric is, well yeah definitely machine operated. Cutting pieces of fabric over and over again is repetitive and simple, so machines can replicate it just fine with minimal effort. Even embroidery is machine sewn for sure, I use digital embroidery machines for my works and they are fully automatic, they do all the work for you. However... They did cut out the most important step. Do robots have enough precision and sleight of hand to operate, sew and piece together every single unique piece of said fabric patterns? to piece together, measure the seams and sew takes much more precision with your hand. Sewing machines, unlike embroidery machines, are not fully automatic and require someone to press the pedal and constant monitoring with both your eyes and hands to keep going. These shein shills have never been sewing in their lives...
There are machines that can automate like sewing a shirt together but they're super expensive and I doubt shein is using them since it's something you'd show off to the camera.
Not many people know how a garment industry works. 2:32 This looks like a sample making lines to me, and not the real mass production floor. This well-aircond'ed office looks where the merchandiser staff, designers, patterner staff work lol
Your sarcasm on this video was off the charts 👏🏻❤ Honestly, if people are that brain dead to follow people who can’t even wear enough clothing themselves, then the next generations are so doomed!
It’s talent to talk on such an important issue but also making it fun to watch 😂😂. You are one of my favs and very underrated ❤ Hope you get the success you deserve
Reminds me of that meme: - Hello, police! There's an intruder in my house who wants to kill me! - Actually, sir, it's illegal. - What?? - Killing is illegal, sir. He can't kill you, that's officially the law. - But, but he's standing there with a gun, and he's... - Sir, I repeat, killing is illegal, he can't kill you. Stop wasting our time, please.

They literally start out by saying the place was so massive with over 85 acres of buiding facilities, but then go on to show 2 or 3 rooms in the corporate innovation & shipping facility. How is that investigative journalism? Why didn't any of them ask to see the beginning stages of the manufacturing?
Well I can believe the 10-15 minute commute. The majority of Chinese factory workers are migrant workers, meaning workers usually from poor rural areas that travel and live in a a city to work and send money home, only traveling back once or twice a year. In the meantime they live in crowded dorms or some other form of barely livable housing. Their children are cared for usually by grandparents, only seeing their parents, again, once or twice a year. Due to china's hukou system, rampant income inequality, and the rural urban economic divide, this is the only way to survive. And thus they get exploited by these companies.
How does she think is it possible to sell these clothes for so Little??? Like if you Look at the prices its not possible without exploiting someone i mean someone has to loose, the Company or the workers?!
I dont have a supply chain degree, but even I know these companies use contractors and sub-contractors who dont follow basic human rights. Shein can basically say that it's not techincally their company that's in violation, even though Shein should be fully responsible for the choices they make across the supply chain.
I saw that undercover Shein documentary on tv. Well-made and shed a lot of light on what's happening behind the curtains. Just believe me, please stop buying from Shein immediately!
i- i just- how can it not be obvious that this is not what it's really like and that shein obviously has to make their employees work long hours and pay them close to nothing ? there's literally no way for shein to be so affordable for many people without that kind of exploitation
Influencers (richer ones anyway) are on a whole nother PLANET. My mom and I have been going thrifting a lot lately (Saver's normally). I understand you may not have physical stores near you, but I promise you there are better ways to get cheap clothes. I had no idea this ""tour"" happened, so angry
My biggest issue with these influencers was that they were acting like they were "journalists" or something by asking questions but none of them pointed out that this was the 'innovation factory' and that not all the factories actually look like this. They literally tried to lead us to believe this is how the entirety of Shein operates when this is literally the Shein press tour factory
pretty sure she was also exposed for being fake in a article because she wasn't really asking the good questions and as well was easily lead into believing that shien was doing everything right and that americans were just talking for no reason even tho ofc it wasn't the actual factory uk
Agreed,they were only showed the best and nothing less. But the influencers swallowed it down with no complaint. Fuck,answering the questions. How about proving you don’t exploit children and own a sweatshop?
Shown*
Ok so if you boycott Shein then all the children that were being paid 3c per clothing item won't be paid anything and will die of starvation. The only reason people buy from Shein is because it's way cheaper, so if they put up the price, people will just buy from regular shops.

Lol my parents are like that influencer 😮😮😮
They deserve a lot worse than that.
"Ethically made, sustainable clothes."
Oh please, most of their clothes are made of polyester, which is the cheapest and the worst type of fabric.
Polyester also contains PFAs or colloquially known as "forever chemicals"
shedding microplastics everywhere entering our bloodstreams n everything too
Don't forget that 99% of all fabrics jade from Bamboo are actually also just polyester... Just derived from a different source material.
And really, the process and methods of making polyester from bamboo is actually worse than just making it from oil etc.
Note, there are Some fabrics made from bamboo that hasn't been turned to polyester but, it's a much much harder process and much more expensive.
Always wonder why Nike, Adidas, and sport clothing mostly from polyester but why so expensive?

Best comment to sum up that propaganda BS 🤣
Journalists:shein uses child labour
Data: shein uses child labour
The CHINESE GOVERNMENT: Shein uses child labour
Influencers: do you use child labour?
Shein: nuh uh
Influencers: 👍 understandable
They really pulled the;
"Nuh Uh guys 🥺👉👈"
Influencers:Okay they said nuh-uh so I believe them.
Can you pull the article where the chinese government says shein uses child labour?
not a bit reprehensible, it's so defensible 🎵
Man you have to understand that the situation is so bad even the government come out and say “ fuck the profit, you are dead for crossing the line”. As an Asian I can tell you, it’s bad bad.
“Your honor, my client didn’t murder that man in the alley. Murder is illegal. And I know because he showed me his house”
Goodness 😂
This perfectly encapsulates the situation
I worked a factory job once. Temp agency for low income people. We were in a hot warehouse with an assembly line, packed side by side putting Budweiser bottles full of cobwebs from one out of date box into a new box (they were empty base bottles and would be boiled before product went into them) but it was constant. And full time. We got one lunch break.
It was horrible. And in America. I was 16 and a drop out. Only reason I got in was cause my mother worked one too
Want to add, I work a bakery now. The difference is awesome and I love it. Been working it for half a year. I would pick a jammed pack food industry over those warehouses anyday
If it’s so easy, why aren’t people getting those jobs as first jobs? Why are the only people going to these temp agencies happen to be single mothers or poverty line? Because if you’ve got it good, you have better options. No one would work them if they could work something better.
The other reasons people get them is pay. Some companies pay nicely, but most don't. If you ever need to work like that again, pick an electronics manufacturer that does in-house testing. Since the electronics have to be tested in air conditioning, you'll be air conditioned too. Usually pays better than a basic goods warehouse as well. Depending on the company, the benefits are nice, too
This is something we should be talking about. Shein is probably being attacked by competing fashion companies/ I genuinely believe they are using robots.
@@durpnurp7859for context, I sew and embroider stuff, and do a side business for plush toys. The pattern cutting/lasering part like they showed on video? Yeah definitely machine operated. Even embroidery is machine sewn for sure, even I use digital embroidery machines for my works. However... Do robots have enough precision to operate, sew and piece together every single unique piece of said fabric patterns? Cutting pieces of fabric over and over again is repetitive and simple, so machines can replicate it, but to piece together, measure the seams and sew takes much more precision with your hand. Sewing machines, unlike embroidery machines, are not fully automatic and require someone to press the pedal for it to keep going.
@@durpnurp7859you’re brainwashed. They definitely use human labor regardless of what you choose to ignore. Did you even watch the video? This was not their actual factory

Shein reached out to these influencers to say "There is no war in Ba Sing Se" and promptly left them on Read once they got what they wanted from them. There's so much evidence of Shein being shady to outright violating human rights out there (SWOOP made an amazing documentary about Shein that's available for free on TH-cam so no excuses!) but they took the trip/the bag/exposure anyway. They didn't care until they were called out and the loudest "investigative journalist" influencer (Dani) doubled and tripled down like a fucking clown before they got humbled. Not all money is good money. Due diligence isn't optional, it is required with everything. This is a good example of what not to do as a Content Creator.

@@stxphaniee8255Of course there isn't.

No truer words have ever been said.. about this topic 😋 “Influencers are so stupid, they think everyone else in the world is just as stupid as they are” 😂😂😂😂 ❤❤❤❤
I felt like I was losing brain cells just by watching their inane babbling and shilling.
Those influencers they are so stupid, they have no idea about working hard , they never worked hard in they lives, except one work in they influencer live - Dubai porta potty job.
Shein definitely gave them a script to say certain things.
It's not just SheIn. It's most large companies. You don't think some stuff Walmart carries comes from places like this? That's why if you can, shop small and shop local. If you buy a $5 item from me it makes my day and helps feed my family. If you buy$5 or even thousands they don't even care or notice.
Exactly, I’m shocked at the amount of people that don’t understand/know that most big companies cause pollution, use child labour and have terrible work in conditions..like um did u think shein singlehandedly cause global warming 💀💀 supporting small businesses is definitely the way to go
That's why I always buy my squishmallows second hand it's cheaper and it makes a bigger impact on someone's life
I will always try to shop local. But sometimes you feel like you have no choice but to give your money to the Chinese when you barely have any yourself.
@@psychedelicpayroll5412 well that's kind of contradictory since a lot of American trade goes to China also because the food industry is a lot cheaper when you get your resources from China then from America since export and making the item is a lot cheaper in China than America. So it's kind of like a both way road
My mother doesn’t even let us shop at Walmart.
How did these influencers miss that they are being shown just one small hand-selected part of the product lifecycle...
because they probably don't have a college education and they very likely have never worked at a corporation with visibility to a product lifecycle.
@@drivethrupoetI don't even think college has anything to do with it, people from all ages, college or not, know this is like those empty, fake towns around North Korea showing "how good their citizens live"
Answer: they've never sewn anything in their life...
because they are stupid. Their brains only see what their eyes see. Their brains do not do critical thinking / digging deeper.
I think they know/suspect, but delulu themselves or ignore. Basically they don't care as long as they got that $ in the pockets.
And this is one of the reasons I stopped ordering from shein.( besides the child abuse and getting paid like crab)
And for people who will say that “shein has affordable clothes and I can’t afford to buy other brands”
Bruh. I’m cheap and I go to thrift stores, and by going thrifting I can find clothes with good quality and a affordable price. You could buy hugo boss for 4€ cmon, stop being lazy and go out. Not only is it healthy for you but you’ll find long lasting and beautiful clothes unlike shine clothes which can rip apart any second.
And I would really appreciate people to stop ordering from shein since now you will find shein clothes everywhere in thrift stores which the material is shit and they cost more than the original price.
Mhm, my mom goes to the thrift store and so am I!
We also donate there!
I have found some pretty good stuff there, I plan to get a job and buy some new clothes (16 btw)
Not only that, but shien clothes won’t last you long AT ALL.
Clothes used to be an investment when making clothes took so long and was so expensive, you needed that material to last you for quite a while.
I promise these shien addicts that investing in proper more expensive pieces is the way to go for certain clothing items.
I thrift most of my stuff, but for my platforms and main fashion statements, I buy from quality companies that Ik I will get at least 5-7 years out of!!!
It’s really not a cheaper option to pick shien and keep having to buy theirs cheap clothes.
I’m so tired of that fucking lie.
It’s a lie they tell themselves to justify what it is.
It’s ok to shop fast fashion, the problem is there are so many and you choose THIS ONE?
Why?
@@EnchanterBitter FR LIKE WHY?! 💀
The problem is everyone has different ressources around the world. Some places might not have thrift stores.
But I agree if you can you should not buy directly from fast fashion brands.
I always try to see if thrift stores have what I need before I shop fast fashion.
@@EnchanterBitteri agree these items do not last long, but I feel that it’s not just shein? H$M? Cotton on? All those brands are all the same. I don’t have Walmart in my country but I’m pretty sure they do all that too.

Imagine being so deluded into thinking Chinese people who work in factories would answer child labor questions. Bffr😒
fr especially because if u ask someone if they do something bad they're almost always gonna say "no i don't do that"
“yes, we love child labor and think every kid above 5 should work 12 hours a day”
i bet some of them literally have no choice but to bring their children to work with them so they can EAT
Have you ever even been to China ?
Lululemon, Walmart, Nike, etc many stores use child labor door, Gucci,
What sucks is SHEIN is one of the only brands that has clothes that fit my size correctly and did not cost an arm and a leg, I was heartbroken when I heard this about the company.
Best thing you can do is buy from independent sellers (not as costly as one may think / look for the 'non-flashy' ones).
I am not + sized but going to local markets you'll find beautiful, BEAUTIFUL hand-made clothes (and you can tell they're hand made by the pride the sellers have in their craft/little stories that come with them) that are sold for reasonable amounts (+ last a hell of a lot longer).
Go back to what clothing used to be (an art form). Hell you could even commission your own beautiful clothing.
@@esterbun9356 I will try that, but there is not many of those were I live unfortunately. thanks for the suggestion tho
Im still buying from shein idgaf abt child labor LMFAO
@@Aidenunicornpinkfluffy you don't care that CHILDREN are (allegedly) in horrible working conditions?
@@banirolls no lol
my mom ordered something from shein for me, and she said the clothes smelled and the packaging smelled. the two sweaters seemed like they were made from cheap materials. I decided that be the last I ever buy from shein. I just don't trust where they get their fabrics. I never brought from Shein before, and this was the only time because I was curious what their clothes were like.
if that influencer said that they use recycled materials, then why did my sweaters feel like they were made from toilet paper or something?
no girl, they paid you to make the company look good. so of course they are going to say what you want to hear. that is how companies run . so don't fake that apology that you weren't aware of their working conditions and labor laws. you did it because people caught on to you being a puppet for shein.
you didn't bother to do research because it was more important to get paid and show the glamours side of fashion. when in reality fashion comes at a price.
i’ve been shopping there for like a year
I don't know, the clothes I get there are pretty good quality, actually. Sure, I've gotten a bad egg or two, but I have clothes that are over three years and still look great! Also, I do understand why shein is bad, but as a broke person in a third world country where dollars are a fortune, it's a good deal.

The absolute hypocrisy to go there as a POC and act like you believe it's all peachy and not a press model factory and basically you promote slavery work in exchange for a free vacation. Shame on them! I hope they lose all their fan base
I don’t see where the hypocrisy comes into play just bc they’re POC? like you said slavery so are you comparing child labor to slavery as in the Atlantic slave trade? I’m confused asf.
@@michinsaeggi-dakcho it's comparable. those children live in poverty, that's why they have to work instead of going to school. Their safety is not a priority and they work 12, 14 hour days... I'm sure you've heard all this before. The only relevant difference is that didn't get kidnapped. But they don't have another option unless they want to starve.
Absolutely correct.
POC does not = poverty though…
And these be the same women who push slavery, sexism and other oppression on every topic on Twitter
Shame for Shame!

So uhhh this video is a great example of why there’s a difference between the job title of an “influencer” and “journalist”
It's so wholesome seeing influencers doing jobs that we normal people do to stay alive and act like it was a life changing experience.
It gave "the D'Amelios working at Walmart" vibes
what confuses me is how everyone seems to assume all the clothes they buy at Walmart, Target, Kmart etc, are all sewn by happy Americans being paid a good wage, They're all made in the same freaking place, in the same freaking conditions, but there's a huge mark-up put on the clothes in US, Canada, UK, Aus etc. That's why we pay so much more for the same stuff in our own countries. Shein is cutting out the middle-man so poor folks have access to affordable clothes that actually look nice. if you go to Target or Walmart instead, you're paying more for clothes that come from the same darned place. (and no, thrift storing isn't possible for many people these days - it's often still very expensive, or anything that's nice is already bought by wealthier people who do it because it's ''cool'' to thrift).
Actually, there is a difference buying directly from Sheen (or Temu or whoever) and from a retail outlet in the UK or USA or Australia outsourcing from China
. What is manufactured for the West has to abide by certain laws, and health & safety. There are grading levels. You can do this research on Google. But if you buy directly online from Shein, they have their own manufacturers and they don’t have to answer to corporations in the west.
Quality isn’t even close
It's all the same garbage and it's all tainted with the blood and sweat of poor people and kids. We shouldn't be looking for "something that looks nice" but rather something that's going to last a very long time. Also, if it's cheap, you won't feel bad to chuck it out after a week if it's "not in fashion" anymore or if it's coming apart at the seams. It is unfortunately a very deep seated problem with our self image and self worth that these companies exploit because we want to make ourselves look like we're not poor and can afford finer fashion. Every time you buy a piece of clothing or a pair of shoes you have to remind yourself that someone somewhere suffered to produce that item. Respect it, try to mend it where possible and remember you don't need new clothes all the time to be a valuable person.
That's why - second world. Turkey, Uzbekistan, etc.
They don't pay very generous, but they don't use child labour at least
@@spongerobert I just saw your comment. Things that will last (ie well made) fall into the same category because they’re bought up by people who thrift shop for fun so they can show their “thrift haul” on TikTok. Where I live anyway, you get dirty stained clothes for a pretty penny. I spent $10 on a pair of pants from a dump shop the other day as my daughter urgently needed new pants and that’s the cheapest we could get at such short notice 😱
It just annoys me that people come down so hard on Shein when almost all the clothes people access these days are made in those same conditions. Yet my kids and I, having very little money, have bought some lovely stuff on Shein that we will wear until it falls apart (so far nothing has fallen apart!). The rest of our clothes usually come from “sharing shelves” which is where people dump their old clothes for the poor in the community. Almost everything we own has come from the sharing shelves over the years, aside from a trip to the dump shop in emergencies, plus old family stuff that’s been handed down for decades now. And our special stuff we bought off Shein.
Edit to clarify: we are more extreme than most when it comes to wearing things and mending them until they’re literal shreds. I’m 35 and am still wearing bras from my teens, as well as some of my grandmas old bras, and wearing clothes my mum bought second hand back in the 80s when she was young that have been re-mended all these decades. This is poverty in NZ. Meh.
I can't imagine hearing of all the problems with fast fashion and being like "Cool! I'll support that!"
She wasn’t even looking at the camera most of the time , I just realized
"We asked the supervillain if he was a bad guy and he said no so he’s good you guys" 🤦🏾♀these people i'm honestly not even gonna say gullible bcs we've all seen the clips from the actual shein workshops i honestly think they did it for the money bcs there is no way they're that dumb to believe that this is an actual factory and from what i've heard this is a "Pilot factory"
The first part 😂😂
I was curious so I looked it up and found a CNN post about the trip. Dani Carbonari, to my knowledge, is still the only one that's terminated her contract. The other ones have either not spoken up or are still defending the "But I didn't see anyone starving soooooo it must be ok" idea which is outrageous to say the least.
Feels like something that would happen in the hunger games. Capitol people visiting the districts. These influencers ARE the Capitol people of this world whether they want to believe it or not.
I’ve been so tempted to buy from Shein. Some really cute stuff at affordable prices. I’m currently trying to lose a massive amount of weight and will eventually need a new wardrobe. It’s tempting as a broke person to buy a shit ton of stuff from them when the day comes and just have a spree getting to wear all the things I never could.
But I just can’t justify this. I won’t. I wish there were cheap and cute options just like shein that were actually decent to the humans that work there
that's just called capitalism
well yeah lol@@safyakhan7857
I hear people talk all the time about stuff not fitting consistently because the laser that cuts will cut the top shirt differently than the one of the bottom of the pile. Robots are great but that's not the fully story. No need to be snarky or rude to me. You are defending a shitty company so it's weird you are defending them so hard. I'm glad your cheaply made clothes get you compliments though. They do have some cute stuff. Wonder why it is hated...watch the video? lol@@durpnurp7859
Never ordered something from them. And that was before I knew about the harsh conditions these people have to work in. For me, it all looks nice but flimsy because here in my country it’s full of Chinese clothes shops with the same stuff. I bought a Coach wallet for Srd 100, which equals to $3 based on our currency 😂. Here in Suriname 🇸🇷, it’s multi cultural and most clothing stores are owned by Chinese. It’s affordable and sad at the same time since most of the population here can’t afford “normal “ (brand) clothes 😞. So we just go with the flow since we have no knowledge how the clothes were made. The stores are always busy because that’s what 80% of the population can really afford to spend on their children and themselves 😒 what a dilemma.
On another note: thanks for another great video Layze 🤣 you never fail to make me laugh 💯
Don’t feel bad if this is what you can afford . It is the responsibility and in the conscience of western buyers . We should boicot those brands . I can gladly say I have never bought from those Chinese clothing brands .

As a plus-size she should be all about body positivity but she had a video of her talking how she got her ideal man who all the “skinny’s liked him” and that “ she got him thought she was a fat chick” literally ended the video as a f*** you to all them skinny gals! It was terrible!!! And she has no confidence because she likes bringing people who are thinner down! It’s just to toxic and hateful to other people who don’t look like her.
I'm proud of myself, I never ordered a single product from Shein
She let down “Me, my younger self, and my community” lmao. Two of those are both just herself, she’s so self absorbed
it's literally the same as when people travel to north korea they are only allowed to enter one city in the entire country. and it is completely empty malls and restaurants with workers smiling 24/7 and only serving those couple tourists.
shein being so hot right now is wrong in a million ways but recently I also realized that thrift stores and gently used stores will be FULL of this bullsh*t in a few years
It's already full of Shein
The quality is horrendous
Well yeah. Shein’s a fast fashion company,selling extremely cheap clothing. I hope Shein goes bankrupt within a few years.
They already are, much of the thrift shopping community are pissed
They already are. I hate seeing fast fashion items in them
The fact that influencers will ignore blatant abuse and mistreatment for money is so dystopian to me
These influencers came from Planet Sheen.
That wasn’t a nap-that was slipping into unconsciousness due to exhaustion and hunger, being revived and ordered to get back to work.

when I worked at Dollar General the regional manager would bring corperate to the newest, nicest stores that weren't busy and avoid the worst stores in town that were messy, super busy, drama, etc. This reminded me of that, they show them best spot and chit chat bsing the whole time, no actual real questions and work.

I’ve been wondering about that for so long too
FYI, buying clothes from a locally-owned clothing store will support the business owner, but it makes no difference in the source of the clothing.
No matter what you are shopping for, read labels.
And look for upcyclers, who make amazing, unique and original clothes from cut up, cleaned excess clothing. Who wants to look like everyone else? It’s rad wearing a one-of-a+kind garment

I was taken by surprise when I stared getting Shein at the top of my search results any time I started looking for any specific clothing item. It must have been around a year or so ago, and they often were the only place I could find selling a specific thIng in my size. They *always* had what I wanted, and it was all *so* cheap. I never bought anything, because it was very clearly dodgy, the epitome of “if it looks too good to be true…..”
Now I’ve stared noting a similar thing with Temu, but not for clothing, for other stuff. And again, they always seem to have what I’m looking for, and they’re always right at the top of the Google search results. It’s very specific stuff too, like entomology equiptment, things you just wouldn’t expect to find on a website like that, and which usually there are just a few places online selling.
They’ve definitely got their search engine optimisation down 🤨 I think Google has some responsibility here too, because I can easily see why websites like these have become so popular since they’re the first shops that seem to appear when you search for so much stuff.
Temu is a huge scam that company still owes me 60 bucks.
Google is so broken. Fact, not opinion, see recent news for more). It should be illegal to call it a “search engine” as it’s nothing if the sort.
yeah Temu is so sketchy
entomologist huh? Well bugs suck (beetles chew) :)
Yo, the last minute of this video had me in shambles 😂😂😂😂 on a serious note though, something needs to be done to stop these mega factories. I’ve never bought at temu or Shein, but I have purchased from fashion nova. I need to reevaluate my shopping

No one said we need to shut down the factories, just that shein need to pay their adults good so the children don’t need to help pay for their parents.
Shein also need to better their environment and rights for the employees, like having actual decent working time, having a good pay for the job and letting them actually rest
Well, according to the communist party of China, poverty in China has been eridicated 🎉 just in time for their 100th anniversary too. They also just passed a law saying you can't record or talk about poverty. You're a poor person and you did the best you could with what you had and recorded the wedding? Arrested🎉 yes, that actually happened. you can't show people are poor in China (even though 65% of them fall into the poverty category).
I spat my drink when they said that theyre pleasantly surprised to hear a lot of the stuff is automatic. For context, I sew and embroider stuff, and do a side business for plush toys. The pattern cutting/lasering fabric part like they showed on video is the START of the clothes production. Its already clear that they've completely cut off the major parts of putting the pieces together.
Lasering pieces of the fabric is, well yeah definitely machine operated. Cutting pieces of fabric over and over again is repetitive and simple, so machines can replicate it just fine with minimal effort. Even embroidery is machine sewn for sure, I use digital embroidery machines for my works and they are fully automatic, they do all the work for you.
However... They did cut out the most important step. Do robots have enough precision and sleight of hand to operate, sew and piece together every single unique piece of said fabric patterns? to piece together, measure the seams and sew takes much more precision with your hand. Sewing machines, unlike embroidery machines, are not fully automatic and require someone to press the pedal and constant monitoring with both your eyes and hands to keep going. These shein shills have never been sewing in their lives...
There are machines that can automate like sewing a shirt together but they're super expensive and I doubt shein is using them since it's something you'd show off to the camera.
Not many people know how a garment industry works. 2:32 This looks like a sample making lines to me, and not the real mass production floor. This well-aircond'ed office looks where the merchandiser staff, designers, patterner staff work lol
Your sarcasm on this video was off the charts 👏🏻❤

The translation to her response video was so funny XD
I subscribed so fast, I love your content and your wig character lmao
He has two wigs and they appear in almost all of his videos 😂
They literally start out by saying the place was so massive with over 85 acres of buiding facilities, but then go on to show 2 or 3 rooms in the corporate innovation & shipping facility. How is that investigative journalism? Why didn't any of them ask to see the beginning stages of the manufacturing?
Well I can believe the 10-15 minute commute. The majority of Chinese factory workers are migrant workers, meaning workers usually from poor rural areas that travel and live in a a city to work and send money home, only traveling back once or twice a year. In the meantime they live in crowded dorms or some other form of barely livable housing. Their children are cared for usually by grandparents, only seeing their parents, again, once or twice a year. Due to china's hukou system, rampant income inequality, and the rural urban economic divide, this is the only way to survive. And thus they get exploited by these companies.
this video opened with a shein ad 😂
It’s so crazy that such happy people would stitch sos letters in the clothing they make 🤪
Ikr they're so funny lmao!
The influencer: mmm what do you mean he was murdered? Murder is illegal
I love your videos😭😭 your sense of humor aligns with mine so much 🤣🤣
Her influencer apology was like: "me, me me me me .. me me"
'Babes, they weren't even sweating! How can they be running a sweatshop if they don't even sweat. Duh!'
I am happy i found Layze second channel. His videos are hillarious and really made my day better ❤
How does she think is it possible to sell these clothes for so Little??? Like if you Look at the prices its not possible without exploiting someone i mean someone has to loose, the Company or the workers?!
I dont have a supply chain degree, but even I know these companies use contractors and sub-contractors who dont follow basic human rights. Shein can basically say that it's not techincally their company that's in violation, even though Shein should be fully responsible for the choices they make across the supply chain.
When influencers make the most boring things sound so complex
I saw that undercover Shein documentary on tv. Well-made and shed a lot of light on what's happening behind the curtains. Just believe me, please stop buying from Shein immediately!
We get naps and on Wednesdays the camel 🐫 comes in screaming HUMPDAYYYY WHOOP WHOOP.
I also feel disgusted when workers have to work at their job too 😪😪 0:17
Hello from Argentina. Man, love your videos, you make us laugh and think at the same time. You are awesome.
i- i just- how can it not be obvious that this is not what it's really like and that shein obviously has to make their employees work long hours and pay them close to nothing ? there's literally no way for shein to be so affordable for many people without that kind of exploitation
'it can't be a sweatshop... no one is even sweating!' 💀💀💀
I am laughing too much at their horrible ignorance. Thank you for drawing me in with your humor but the subject is frightening.
Thats why i like watching you
You tell it like it is and i laugh my ass off all of the time thankyou for all the great videos
Your commentary makes this so funny v😭
The skit in the beginning was so painfully accurate
I have never bought their shit and never will. The fact that these "influencers" sold themselves to a propaganda machine is so gross and immoral.
Influencers (richer ones anyway) are on a whole nother PLANET. My mom and I have been going thrifting a lot lately (Saver's normally). I understand you may not have physical stores near you, but I promise you there are better ways to get cheap clothes.
I had no idea this ""tour"" happened, so angry
