The "problem" with this argument is that now we need things like cars and phones and the internet to function. Like literally _function_. And it unfortunately falls into the No Ethical Consumption Under Capitalism problem.

People have always argued that we need exploitation to exist in order to function. The people who benefit from exploitation always, always argue that there's no other way, or that it's too hard to make any meaningful changes.

No Ethnical Consumption Under Capitalism is a convenient excuse, particularly given that we're completely unwilling to really do anything about the capitalism that we claim to abhor. Choosing not to purchase or consume media is an easy way to assuage one's personal guilt, but it doesn't do a damn thing. At the end of the day, it's still the case that we'd rather there be slavery, that we'd rather children die for us, than to have to give up our first world comforts.
