The animal parts are why I asked. Like if the mistreatment of workers from amazon is that high of a priority, what about the mistreatment of animals in factory farms?
Well, there is a pretty big difference there, namely that I don't want animals to unnecessarily suffer because it's an uncomfortable idea, and I think Daoism at least advises against participating in causing unnecessary suffering to animals (I have forgotten where it says that or what the approximate wording was, though, so I guess it's possible it was just someone's interpretation rather than something official), but those are the only reasons why I would care about animals suffering. Meanwhile, Amazon's workers are people, and I am also a person, so supporting their mistreatment would indirectly support my own potential future mistreatment as well and that would be
actually bad in addition to being at least as uncomfortable and likely considered at least as inadvisable in Daoism.
By the way, if you order Chanca Piedra from a non-amazon store, I'll paypal you the shipping cost
I guess I'll look into it some time. I tend to be a bit skeptical of the types of stores that sell this kind of stuff, I want to properly make sure it's not a scam and that the business owner is not an actual neo-Nazi supporter or Putinist or something (pseudoscientific treatments kind of go hand in hand with being an anti-vaxxer, which goes hand in hand with being a conspiracy nut in general, which goes hand in hand with supporting neo-Nazis and Putin. I swear this is a legitimate concern here, there's even a
precedent, Kärkkäinen sells a lot of normal stuff too but most of their competitors don't even sell hippie dietary supplements at all and Kärkkäinen certainly does).
There is a hippie dietary supplement store that I trust where I get my Carmolis from, but they didn't have Chanca Piedra unfortunately. Carmolis (at least the liquid version) is great by the way, I doubt its effectiveness is supported by very rigorous scientific research either but it's definitely effective, I can clearly hear the improvement it makes in a singer's voice.
