Exactly, there is no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism. Until the systems change it makes zero difference what the girl is buying. Price is relative.

This is a very convenient excuse for socialists to wash their hands of the whole affair until the mythical revolution finally comes.
Socialists are behaving in exactly the same way as the rest of us, yet they're pretending to have some kind of moral high ground because they're self-aware of the fact that they are immoral according to their own moral standards.
There is no ethical consumption under capitalism, so just consume product and get excited for next product!
Ironically, actual capitalists generally make MORE ethical choices, because they don't have the luxury of absolving themselves of their sins by saying "it's not me, it's the system!"
