People in china make things with love too. Electronics, games, movies, shows, comedy, art, software etc.
Fuck the government but the hate for the people in china is disgusting. I do get it. I do. The government is absolutely fucked and very oppressive.
But i feel like a lot of people don’t see that a TON of american and european products are made in china too. And think “oh i don’t buy a chinese phone! Its made by abused workers!”.
And then buy an iPhone. Completely forgetting that phone is made in the same factory but with an american logo on it.
We need to be more focused. We can’t let people forget that the government and the people are not the same.
I know people say the “chinese” or the “russians” or the “americans”. But we should say the government instead when talking about political conflicts. A lot of people read the “chinese” or the “americans” and see it as that ENTIRE country. People, government etc. As if it is all one singular thing.
Its just sad and wrong to see them as one and the same.
