That's beside the point. The reason these phones do what they do isn't because they're Chinese-made; it's because they're advertised as cheap but there's a catch. The title distracts from the more important point and instead panders to our natural xenophobia, which is one of our greatest weaknesses. We should all be working to overcome that weakness, not stirring it up.

- bassman9000 6y agoThey're cheap because China can afford to dump, which is a CCP strategy. All Chinese manufacturers are state-bound, and the article is not to blame if the CCP long term goal of erasing the citizen and conflating party, state, and country has been largely successful. It is absolutely relevant they're coming from China if no other manufacturing country is doing the same. It has nothing to do with race, but the insistence is telling.
