Yes, I know there is no ethical consumption under capitalism.

I still need material gods and services. How can I make the necessary purchases more ethical?

Edit: I live in Northern Europe, if that matters

The idea of "boycotting" capitalism through consumption is useless and very commonly adopted by depoliticized middle-class people. Lenin has already said that the only tool that the working class has to confront the domination of Capital is political organization through a vanguard party
