Had me in the first half. As for the second, you don’t have a real reason besides China bad? Not even a “stop polluting by buying mass produced cheap single use shit”?
I notice you tacked Israel onto USA there, let’s not ignore China’s role in vetoing the UN Ceasefire resolution with release of hostages in the terms, arming the Hamas attack on the music festival through their support of the IRGC who rule Iran, and supporting the Trump Admin’s reelection who ended all food aid into Gaza and shifted the genocide into high gear.
You’ll have to forgive me for not clicking on the links. I am lazy and I used Google overview. Most people frown at using Google overview. I understand if you do, too.
When you search on chrome, the top of the page automatically populates with Google’s AI overview. The best practice is to click on the links next to the text to see what sources it is pulling from.
Everything wrong with the USA is worse with China. You can even say that the worst part of the USA currently is Trump and he was aided in reelection by Beijing operated psyop TikTok. Fuck China, Fuck Authoritarianism.
Yeah, why hate and boycott an entire country? There are hard working folks there that need to feed their families. I used Temu a few times and never thought about the country the store is from. I just wanted to see the product. So far, clothes off Temu aren’t that bad.
The people in that country have a responsibility to do something to stop the authoritarian assholes in charge. Until that point, all harm inflicted upon them as a result of their notoriety is deserved and their own fault.
Well if you subtract the ones I listed and India (or maybe not depending on the evidence in the Pakistan conflict) then bout 187 including Taiwan, the entire EU, Mexico, Canada, South Africa, etc.
But more realistically probably like 130 depending on how you draw the line and after excluding aggressors in Africa and South America.
It wouldn’t be the first or the last revolt. If Xi “Poopy Pants Pooh” Jinping weren’t afraid of it he wouldn’t keep executing generals and parliament members.
French Monarchs fell, Russian rulers fell twice, most English colonies threw off their own shackles.
Don’t use TEMU. Basically, if it helps China, don’t use it.

Why are you saying that like it’s not a good reason?
Meant more as it’s a real and easy (easiest imo) reason. “Not even a” implying they could not even muster up the brain cells to put up a real reason.
TBF China wants to kill us all and take over all the land, and they’ve been pretty successful in their recent attempts.
Why would China want to kill y’all? Someone has to farm the land for the new lords
I don’t like china (both government and population), but this take is just shit. Sorry mate
lmfao
This some kind of reverse psychology tankie or something? I’m not like you, I feel empathy for the Chinese citizens living in that dystopian hellhole.
Okay
I can’t express how much I’d rather give my money to China over any American shit. Like:
Canada/Local > most of the world > China > […]x100 > USA/Israel
It’s your funeral. [and everyone you love.]

Not Amazon either, denounce Walmart too, US bad.
Now, how about IKEA? Sweden probably bad. Aldi? Germany definitely bad!
Also don’t you dare use your car, it helps oil corporations!!!
I’m not against not using TEMU as a concept, but your point sounds as stupid as the ones above.
PD: although, don’t use Amazon, Jeff Bezos definitely globally bad.
Wrong. EU good.
IKEA is actually bad. They illegally fell trees in European forests.
They also hide tax money by operating as a “charity” IIRC
edit: they’re operated as a non profit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IKEA_Foundation
How do they get away as a non-profit?
Edit: Here’s what I found:
Why does that search look like that?

WTF is a google overview? Are you asking the AI?

In your opinion, what country’s products are okay to buy, then?
Definitely not the fucking shorter list.
Blacklist any country with any form of aggressive military operations: Russia, China, USA, Israel, Iran, Lebanon, Indonesia, etc.
So what countries (with any considerable exports) are left to choose from then?
Well if you subtract the ones I listed and India (or maybe not depending on the evidence in the Pakistan conflict) then bout 187 including Taiwan, the entire EU, Mexico, Canada, South Africa, etc.
But more realistically probably like 130 depending on how you draw the line and after excluding aggressors in Africa and South America.
How do you suppose they do that? You think it is that easy to lead a revolt!?
