Awesome. As an American consumer, China is doing far more for me than the corrupt USA.

Exploitative sweatshop labour pays dividends for us westerners, doesn't it?

Lmao when china does it, its sweatshop labour and when western companies pay their labour pennies its the fault of the workers for being lazy.

I get the feeling if this was a us company, people like you would have been chanting this as a success of capitalism that will increase competition and decrease prices.

Better than a million feral humans sent back to live as animals in urban nature and corrupt wage slavery for pirate banker commodity housing, not to mention the Flock-You surveillance state that is stealing citizenship and democracy right now. When Citizen is functionally equivalent to Slave, China looks far better. "You will own nothing and be happy about it." -because slaves that speak up find themselves dead. I'll take a sweatshop over this corruption any day.

Nearly everything you mentioned there could be said about China as well though. So, how? In what way does it make China look better? Serious question. And not a defense of the west out the US.

China has been doing more for you and I as American consumers than the USA for the past like 60 years. China is the manufacturing superpower of the world.
