Yeah this isn't what people make it out to be.

I already pointed it out in another thread about this exact website: Go and search for "keyboard", what's the first search result? Logitech, a company that makes their products almost exclusively in china. There's nothing european about this.

"Yeah but it's a european company so!" yeah i don't care. It's not an european product. It's a chinese product. I don't care if the CEO lives in europe or it has a German flag on the cover or whatever - if the product is made in china, it's not an european product.

Also this is like the 5th time i see this here, which makes me wonder if this is some sort of organic-looking promotional campaign.



>There's nothing european about this. / "Yeah but it's a european company so!"

You are contradicting yourself. There is something European about it.

Anyway, as long as it's not from the USA, it's a win.


I don't care. It's a chinese product, i refuse to take anyone who says otherwise seriously. European products are made in europe, not china.


Sure. But what is the reason sites like this are popping up? Which county is threatening to take over Greenland "one way or another"? Not China. Which country has invaded multiple countries over the last decades? Not China.

Which is the lesser evil, really?

Where was I wrong? I don't see any recent Chinese invasions listed here:

contrast with:

These days, from a Canadian perspective, non-US is already good enough.

Yeah, China sucks. But the US sucks even more.
