    If you watched the Super Bowl, then you saw a whole lot of Travis Kelce, incredible coverage on Taylor Swift, and a very questionable ad on Temu. You probably remember the ad well, right? Temu: shop like a billionaire. It played, like, 500 times throughout the game. But can you actually shop like a BILLIONAIRE on Temu? If FaZe Rug, HopeScope, Mia Maples, and the hundreds of other TH-camr videos have shown us anything about the brand, the answer is a strong NO. But we had to find out for ourselves. Will we walk around looking like tech moguls Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Mark Cuban? Can we strut in a dress as expensive as Taylor Swift’s? Or will the Temu dupes make our space look like Kim Kardashian’s Sknn office decor with a bunch of Donald Judd dupes? C’mon, loyal Theorist, let’s shop like billionaires!

    I get why Amy(and the script writers) didn't go into the horrible aspects of Temu (Child labour, secruity risks, etc) because it was about their "shop like a billionaire" slogan. As well as going into such a serious topic so early into taking over a challenge is a big risk. I hope that in the future they are a little more mindful of these topics.

      yuppp avoid amazon like the plague when you can, they've been known to exploit their workers for years and they dropship plenty of items from the same questionable places temu does. thrifting has more recently gained popularity (especially with younger generations like mine) and lost a lot of its negative stigma because we want more sustainable options readily available, and it being cheap is a plus. There are some companies that are more transparent with where they get their materials and where manufacturing takes place (think the tags with QR codes) but those options tend to be out of a lot of peoples budgets (ethical practices and higher wages make things more expensive). But hopefully the energy activists have keeps up and more changes in the industry come

  • @katiemcwrath

    I get why Amy didn’t focus on the other obvious issues with Temu (child labor, identity theft, etc.). The whole concept of the video is about the “shop like a billionaire” aspect so they didn’t go into all that. They kept the focus and I did learn a lot about the rich if nothing else. Does it still leave a terrible taste in my mouth? Definitely. But I do get their thought process. I do hope they do something down the line where they discuss these aspects.

    Man, this is tough. I feel like this is a huge miss. Temu has a ton of serious ethical concerns that go completely unmentioned, such as child labor, environmental impact, and potential privacy concerns. I also had an issue with the methodology when it came to the electric razor last week. I genuinely want to continue to watch and support this channel like all the other theorist ones, but maybe this change wasn't for me. I'm gonna give it another shot on the next episode and hope for the best.

      @NG-S. 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      Wait, you feel like you don't want to support a channel because in 1 video they didn't talk about something which wasn't even the topic of the video.
      The topic of this video was if the Superbowl commercial slogan was true or not, the topic of this video had nothing to do with the ethical problems of Temu. That topic would require it's own video to be properly explained. Would you rather some 30 seconds that briefly go over Temu's ethical problems or a 15 minute video doing the same thing? Either way if that's the kind of video you're looking for I'm sure you can find it on TH-cam from some other channel.
      What I'm trying to say is if you're going to cancel your support over 1 video where they didn't talk about something that wasn't even the topic of the video is a bit ridiculous.

      @@user-vm8pr7wb9oWell, it may not be the Point of the video, it is the point of the channel though. Style Theory already discussed phenomena like fast fashion. Thinking about two videos on Shein on this channel. Don't get me wrong here. I like all the Theory Channels. This is not a "You're bad, cause you're hiding crimes"! That's why I asked for a Part Two. Because I know the Theorists are taking their responsibilities seriously. Still like the video itself. Have a nice day.

    Potential Style Theory: with modern clothing creation methods, do you still need to separate your clothes for laundry purposes?
