Just Sew it!

Whenever I see the name RTFKT I see REKT. Maybe it’s because I’ve been in crypto and DAOs too long. But I can tell you one thing, no one in crypto celebrated giant multinational corporations buying out smaller art companies. Maybe philosophical musings about decentralization and freedom are only possible when you make enough money to quit your 9-5?

“RTFKT is now part of the Nike, Inc. family”: -https://www.theverge.com/22833369/nike-rtfkt-nft-sneaker-shoe-metaverse-company

From July 21, 2020:

“That factory, in Laixi in Shandong province, is operated by the South Korean-owned Qingdao Taekwang Shoes Co., which employs about 700 Uyghur workers, many of them women. There, people have been kept against their will in inhumane conditions. This facility, a Nike supplier for more than three decades, produces approximately eight million pairs of shoes each year. It is one of the brand's largest sources of shoes and devotes most of its output to the iconic U.S. company.

In March, the non-partisan Australian Strategic Policy Institute, in a report titled "Uyghurs for Sale," accused Beijing of forcing more than 80,000 Uyghurs and other Muslim minorities to produce products for Nike and 82 other brands. The unvarnished — and horrific — truth is that the Chinese party-state has institutionalized slavery, ramped it up to industrial scale, and offered slaves to foreign companies. Moreover, compounding its crime, China picks its slaves from racial minority groups inside its borders.” --https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/16263/china-slave-labor-nike
