@@roseelise I was going to ask the same thing but if I may... I am not used to shopping on Insta, how exactly do I see the sale pieces that you still have for sale?
All you are doing by not wanting to buy crystals due to how they are mined is to close your crystals shop and put a poor soul who requires that crystal mining job to help feed and support his family, out of a job! If the orders dry up, then the miner and his family goes hungry. Not much else they can do in a lot of the locations but mine. A lot of emotional Americans use emotions to drive their visions of what the world should be, but can’t see how the world truly is, how it has been, and how it will always be. They also don’t understand who they actually hurt in the process of trying to make the planet a “better place”. Bottom line is that the world isn’t fair, nor has been, or would it ever be. People do the only thing they can do to provide for their families and for them it’s this job that you don’t like, for whatever the reason. So who are the activists to tell the miner and his family that they have to go hungry just so the activists can feel better about themselves? Or to feel like they are “doing something” to make this world a better place? But unfortunately all they are doing is making it worse for those they are trying to help. If you ask the miners, I’d bet they would tell you to “mind your own business and buy our Crystals please! We can’t eat emotions and food cost money!” So buy their Crystals and help them put food on the table. It’s cruel otherwise!
Dude get a grip….i was referencing the fact that it’s very difficult to determine what is a legit family or local mining operation vs. forced labor…not to mention how you can’t truly know the actual methods of mining and processing without witnessing it first hand. Sounds like you don’t know much about the mining industry and it’s super bizarre to be upset that someone wants to do something the ethical way 🥴
@@roseelise no, it’s not about ethics otherwise you’d throw your iPhone and MacBook in the trash along with other products like Nike apparel and even that electric car that’s on every tree huggers (I don’t dislike tree huggers, I just dislike hypocrites) wish list. People protest and boycott things like crystal mining because it doesn’t affect them in anyway. It’s safe for their beliefs, and It’s for “rich people”. If it did though, you wouldn’t hear a peep about it. Just like the iPhone, or electric cars. If you understood what I was saying, it’s not about the mine owner who doesn’t care about your feelings, nor will be affected by your feelings. The folks that get hurt are the miners and their families who rely on that job to feed their kids. They are the one on the chopping block! (If you can’t tell, that’s who I care about) Question! Will you look into the kids eyes who haven’t ate in days and tell them that dad doesn’t have a job anymore and can’t buy food to feed them because you want to feel like you’re doing something good in the world and try to change practices that have been going on for thousands of years? No, you’ll drive down in your electric car, talking on your iPhone to Starbucks and take your MacBook inside to sip on a $10 latte and watch instagram shorts about how bad mining practices are in third worlds while wearing your Nike runners without a care in the first world. But the parents in the third world have to sit, hopefully with a cup of water, watching their kids suffer. Like I said last night… buy crystals and help a poor third world miner feed his family. You have a choice, they don’t. That is a real way to do good in the world. Not by boycotting and causing kids to go hungry and in many cases die because of your emotions. So it’s bizarre to me that someone would have a problem with a miner being able to feed his wife and kids. All you boycotters end up doing is more harm than good with everything you stick your nose into! So get off your high horse and take a good look around you, your home, your friend’s home and see how “ethically” you and your friends are truly living! You just might end up boycotting yourself and your friends! Just saying😉
@@roseelisemy response isn’t there after it was posted. Someone censored me, but whatever. If it wasn’t you then I apologize. In the end it’s all about miners needing the jobs to feed their families. That’s who I care about. If we wanted to be ethical in the products we buy, then we wouldn’t own iPhones, MacBooks, electric cars, Nike shoes, and the list goes on. Not buying crystals only hurts the poor in the third world who has no other means to provide and feed their family. It doesn’t affect the mine owners. They will still be able to eat and feed their families. I don’t worry about the ethics of it because I’m sitting here on my iPhone in my nice cozy house as I’m about to jump on my MacBook. I have no right to judge, all I can do is buy crystals and rocks regardless of where it was mined knowing that at least I’m helping the poor miners feed their families! It sucks it’s the way it is, but it will always be. Mines and mine owners have been killing miners for thousands of years with unsafe practices. That won’t change in the third world, Unfortunately 😢
