no matter how you examine a bar of chocolate, there's no indication of the exploitation that went into creating it — not an atom that screams "I came into being through slavery!" and yet, the social relations of slavery and unequal exchange are facts of its existence. in the capitalist world, we're presented with an endless series of commodities, while the social relationships behind their production and distribution are hidden from us. when people understand the misery that others are forced into in order to shave $0.5 off the production costs of every t-shirt, sofa, or TV they purchase, they often feel rage at the capitalist system. that's why we must continually expose such things. don't let them be hidden from view
