In Reply to: Xenophobia, ignorance, arrogance, bigotry, myopia, stupidity, poor education and hatred, that about covers it. ... posted by three_sox on October 27, 2014 at 19:49:35:
I don't avoid purchasing products that are made in China as a matter of course, but I prefer to buy products made elsewhere when I can.i am not a China basher, but I am concerned about human rights abuses in the PRC, and about their treatment of laborers, and about their quality control and about their lack of respect for intellectual property rights.
All of these problems may change and I hope they do, but I don't see it yet.
I do not see any of the problems as inherent to the Chinese people. Much of this could have been said about Korea or Japan, or the U.S. or Western Europe for that matter, depending on how far back one goes.
I also am not worried about the USA or Europe being buried by China at the end of the day. But I do want to see American manufacturing supported, and I would like to see fewer innovative technologies licensed away to countries that do not enforce IP protection. That's just common sense and it does not only apply to China.
So, while some inmates may be frothing at the mouth or xenophobic or ignorant, as I read this thread I see those sentiments shared by a few but clearly not by all or even most.
And the loudest mouth-foamer is Sudz, but he is here for no reason other than to poke fun and stir up shit and bring out people's worst side.
My 2 cents in any event, respectfully. :-)
