    Even if certain Chinese products are of low quality, have these bazinga brains considered that perhaps the reason for that is that... they're cheap, and so are made to lower standards?

    "Oh, why would they use Chinese instead of Swedish steel", because it's cheaper you fuck, even after paying for the cost of shipping it all the way over from China, it's fucking cheaper. Literally staring right at a problem created entirely by capitalist greed and going "actually, it's because Chinese manufacturing is bad"

    me buying a cheap product :sicko-yes:

    me finding out it's low quality :sicko-no:

    These dweebs would buy the cheapest sword in a video game and be like "NOOO :frothingfash: IT DOES TOO LITTLE DAMAGE!".

        yeah, it's like these people can't grasp the concept of "you get what you pay for" (or they conveniently forget about it when it gives them an opportunity to do some racism). The whole point of offloading manufacturing onto the developing world was saving costs, so obviously you're going to get shittier products in return. If you have a problem with that, then... well done - you've found out capitalism's bad, I guess you have no choice but to become a communist now :xibe-check:

      "Why does capitalism value affordability over safety?"

      And now we're getting somewhere.
