It's ok to boycott QR for pressure on better labor practices but calling it slavery is laughable. Not when today are kids working for your shoes/phones/diamonds without the basic needs.
I am jumping into this thread to call out the utter lunacy of this comment. Equating the Kim familiy's multi-generational dictatorship with its gulags, genocides, and famines with the actions of ISAF in Afghanistan shows a total loss of perspective.

Perhaps you would like to review some of the information about what really happens in Kim Jong Un's paradise:
