All one need do is find out how and where ALL our raw material comes from.
Where does the lithium come from how is it refined
Lithium covers ALL portable electronic devices
Then Food see where our food comes from. We grow grains greens and fruit.. all of these have seasons. Look where it comes from when it is not in season.
Then do the same for meat, fish, poultry.
Next look at steel EVERYTHING has steel in it see where it is made.
Next textiles (cloth) dyes, Leathers etc..
All of our raw materials EVERYTHING is made from comes from slavery, and what's worse is because these companies are not well known like Nike they fly under the radar, which means a lot of times the work conditions in these third world countries are miles worse than what slaves in America had to endure, because the refining processes are far more hazardous with all the chemicals and processes.
If the raw materials have slave sweat in them then everything else assembled here or not are due to the work of slaves. however 99% of the time slaves are also doing the final assembly as well (of the individual components)
