@EmadIqbal2 I would say its mix of both. Sometimes they're 'actually' passive vitctims, but, I blieve, the situtation is more complex that having two labels only. #BSE18

@haninn_el @MikaNotFatima @AmnasDiary If they're already addictied, then just taking it away is dangerious. They will do anything to get it, they're 'addictied'. #BSE18

[bur @bseburner]

@samer_ani @OMElSaka Yes, sure, but that's beside the point. I was more concerned about how we talk about fairness when we are not vs when we are in the position of power. There same to be a discrepancy between what we say vs do ..."Just take the money" #BSE18

#bse18 : "CEOs shouldn't have 300:1 compensation", also BSE "You bribe in such situations". Morals are dependent on where we fit in the picture, I guess.....?

@_Cantzon_ @Shireen1114 @r5678910 @OMElSaka or use a not-racist advertisement? The problem is the method of marketing, not the product. #BSE18

[bur @bseburner]

@Shireen1114 I know the company can participate in solving the problem but is it responsible for it? (not necessarily Unilever) #BSE18

[bur @bseburner]

@r5678910 @OMElSaka @_Cantzon_ Who are we talking about here? The company? I don't think they care they are getting much more $$$$ than if they were straightforward and more 'ethical' #BSE18

[bur @bseburner]

@samer_ani Probably, yes. So, why did we even study it in #BSE18? When do we use it?

[bur @bseburner]

@OMElSaka So, can we even blame them when we even can't make the decision in such small settings...? #BSE18

[bur @bseburner]

@OMElSaka I know this 'stat'. I totally didn't mean that. I meant many think it's not fair to pay CEOs much more, yet, when they're in a position of power to decide who gets the higher share they split it unfairly. #BSE18

[bur @bseburner]

@OMElSaka There are numerous interactions where you don't know the other entity well. So, you should always bribe in such situations? Also, the math doesn't account for all variables. #BSE18

[bur @bseburner]

@OMElSaka @kaabi_maha @_Cantzon_ I am just saying both decision are hard, I just elaborated a bit in the education option. The education decision is hard because usually to educate a whole country you need several generations to see the difference. You're dealing with high variability in mentality. #BSE18

[bur @bseburner]

@aya_domi Isn't the equivalent of "forced charity"? #BSE18

[bur @bseburner]

@r5678910 @OMElSaka @_Cantzon_ shades lighter is clearer-er? do you mean just "extra white"? Isn't that a sign of how good is the product in making the complexion fair? #BSE18

[bur @bseburner]

@OMElSaka @kaabi_maha @_Cantzon_ I am not sure enhancing education is that easy, but reaching a high baseline for the level of education in a poor area is an extremely hard task that requires several generations. That's said the opposite decision is not easy, also. #BSE18

[bur @bseburner]

@MaryamCMUQ @_Cantzon_ @OMElSaka I see your point. I totally agree with you, that's very unethical and degrading. #BSE18

[bur @bseburner]

@SaiqalAl @_Cantzon_ @OMElSaka I see. So, what's immoral here are the associations around the product, right? #BSE18

[bur @bseburner]

@AlbandariAlMana @Shireen1114 @kaabi_maha @OMElSaka @_Cantzon_ Yes, I am against that obviously. Shireen's statement was "company makes associations for the people with their advertising, the product name, maybe tagline or the actors they use?" that's a yes/no question. The kind of association is another story #BSE18

[bur @bseburner]

@Shireen1114 @kaabi_maha @OMElSaka @_Cantzon_ Yes, so, what? #BSE18
