Spend a few years as a subsistence farmer in one of these countries. It will both drastically reduce your consumption and give you an understanding of the life you want to force on people to “save” them from exploitation.

False dichotomy. European imperialism has been creating the conditions that make peasant farming hell for centuries now (and millennia if you count their own people).
Every single sweatshop laborer takes a job because it is better than the alternatives, but their range of choices is dictated by imperialist aggression.
