> If you have an income it’s because of economic activity, most likely derived from advertising.
That reasoning can be used to justify any shitty practice.
Concerned about global warming? If you have an income it’s because of economic activity, most likely derived from emitting carbon.
Concerned about human rights in China? If you have an income it’s because of economic activity, most likely derived from trade with China.
Concerned about American workers getting fired for unionizing? If you have an income it’s because of economic activity, most likely derived from interacting with sales behemoths like Walmart and Amazon.
Therefore, I suggest you come up with a better rational for bad things. Or frankly stop trying to justify them. That also works.
