Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

regardless of the substantive merits, i think you put yourself at a rhetorical disadvantage using the dismissive, moralizing register. obviously this is endemic in online lefty spaces, certainly here too; but maybe it's worth reflecting on why you have so much emotional investment in other's appraisal of your appraisal of Shein. it's not worth it.
