No, the point isn’t that we shouldn’t complain, just it is good to keep perspective. (And a man can dream that if we kept that perspective, more of us would try to buy non sweatshop crap.)
Some lyrics (and why I love folk punk, even if this particular artist turned out to be, like so many, a jerk):
Always think about the things you buy and where they’re from and how they’re made
Always try to keep in mind that your privilege comes on the backs of slaves


“You may not complain because at least one of the other eight billion people in the world has it worse”
