I don't see the difference between someone buying an Apple product that is there knowing that doused in the metaphorical blood of a slave with a paycheck and a pop star wearing fur, snake skin, and other animal related wear.

firstly, no one is forced to do that job, they do it for money and the reason why their incomes is so low that's because of the difference of monetary value in diferent country. for example, a worker in Vietnam earns averagely 100vnd/ 8 hours (= only 5usd ) but those people don't think that's exploitation. about the death, that maybe occupational accidents or something, there're invidual reasons
it's far different from killing animal for fashion
