Now that Afghanistan is prepped to be the Democratic Republic of Congo 2.0 (this time lithium rather than coltan), I suspect that the world is poised for a whole new liberal dilemma:
1. Continue to support an oil industry largely responsible for rapid climate collapse.
2. Switch to supporting a battery industry that will be largely responsible for human trafficking/slavery and child labor.
