Okay, so background: I'm your average pro-gun fuck-the-police, fuck-trump zoomer honed by years of unsupervised internet access and I've just discovered this community and started lurking for a while. But I still hold extremely negative views on China, which I still think are justified.
"Which views?" I'll throw them out real quick: child labor! internet censorship! media censorship! anti-LGBTQ! uygher genocide? positive and pro war relations with russia! (because fuck putin)
So I get really confused anytime I see people expressing pro-China sentiments. Have I been spoonfed by the media or are some of these points actually justified?
Could you link some of those co-ops?
I usually just go to Yunnan Sourcing .
Find what type of tea you want and then lookup the producer if you care. I haven't looked much recently because I got a big shipment last year. Fair warning though, Chinese tea is usually more expensive and requires a special method of preparation to get the best result. It's not a "tea bag in mug" deal unfortunately.
