do you have concerns about buying American stuff? I mean the usa just got outed running an antivax campaign to kill Asian people while hoarding vaccines.

States aren't your friend yo

Yes. I hate consumerism and our corporate overlords. I hate any World Super Power(tm), real or imaginary.

It's a team sport, but we're all the disposable pawns.

So you support the ccp and their oppression of the Chinese population?

[–] NorthWestWind@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Chinese are humans too. They have a life, have things to pay for, and most of them are not even associated with the government.

Then don't buy things that are owned by the ccp. I'm not against them. I'm against their government, and unfortunately, we can't do anything about the ccp except not buy as much as possible from China.

Tell that to all the major Industries that are buying and producing stuff in china than just a regular bloke

Just because they are shitty doesn't mean I have to be too.

Yes, the Chinese are people too, and they are being oppressed by their government.

What's your point?
