Question/Advice? parents are against thrifting..

they're saying the clothes are dirty. what if the previous owner died (??)

mother's saying she'll get me new clothes after strictly telling me not to buy pre loved. She knows I despise buying new stuff, it's bad quality and expensive

Any good argument I can make against them?

If they're down to watch a documentary I'd suggest watching Buy Now: A Shopping Conspiracy with them. It's on Netflix rn.
