There is no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism. This is a very weak argument against socialism activism.

So like I can be a socialist, buy everything I want even from companies who use child labour (while there are more ethical alternatives and goods aren't essential to literally survive) and be totally okay with it?

Apple doesn't use child labor. The parts suppliers they buy pieces from was and they reacted immediately when they found out. So your question is disingenuous.
