A rationalization at best. Facilitating an immoral act is active participation.

Do you buy things from amazon? They treat their warehouse employees terribly, so I hope not, lest you facilitate an immoral act.

Do you ever use uber? They work to keep their drivers legally declared as contractors, despite treating them employees in all other regards. That’s pretty immoral, so I hope you don’t encourage it by supplying them with business.

I don't think that warehouse employee situation is immoral so I'm good on that. A neither on the UBER case. I'm safe!
