    Why do we continuously cowtow to those fascists? It’s getting more and more difficult to not sound like a racist but it seems like everything coming out of that country are just lies, damn lies, fabricated lies, and rampant cheating/corruption. It’s like their national past-time is lying.

      It’s not racist to dislike and distrust a government, as long as you don’t equate all people of that region or ethnicity with that government. Authoritarian governments, especially Israel, but also China, LOVE to cast dissent with their politics or cultural values as “racist” but this is ABSOLUTE bullshit and should be called out, mocked, disparaged and laughed at, NOT legitimized.

      The problem is that’s kinda true of pretty much everywhere so your choices are to isolate and only get lied to by your own politicians and corporate overlords or to accept the complexity of the world and try to work on moving forward where possible.

      I do agree that this entirely greed based approach from the company is wrong but honestly I prefer it to your extreme xenophobia towards them. Yes there are issues with China just like all our countries have issues, they’re not the devil though not by a long shot.
