Why SHEIN is getting charged with RICO

SHEIN scandal! Or is it SHEIN? Did you pronounce them differently in your head? No one knows, including Mae and Laura. But what we DO know is that they are being investigated for violating RICO laws. You know RICO laws, the ones designed to put mafia kingpins behind bars?  We talk about the fashion mogul behind the $100 Billion company, Chris Xu. Just kidding, he is a search engine optimization engineer and has never designed clothes in his life. The girls discuss how he managed to create a tech company that systematically steals designs from Etsy designers and uses highly questionable labor standards to bring them to life. What a talent!  Then, no fast fashion discussion is complete without covering a Shein Haul! In this case, they hauled it all the way to China where a now infamous influencer propaganda factory tour was hosted by Shein and gave young gullible influencers a chance to be investigative journalists.  Oh, also the world (specifically Chile) is on fire, mostly from having filled their desert with unsold clothes. Don’t worry, the fabrics are all made out of insane chemicals. Yay!  Like and subscribe! Follow us online! Don't buy Shein! @risquebusinessnews @laurasogar @mae_planert
