Sometimes it is tempting to boycott china’s products. The chinese state is authoritarian, capitalist, exploitative, and enslaving. The chinese regime is, in my opinion, an expression of how fascism is alive today. (together with the russian state..) Am using the term fascism in the sense that these regimes unify senses of nationalism, authoritarianism, and capitalist systems entwined with the state and its powers.
However, china is everywhere when you are poor. Being free of chinese made stuff is expensive. What should a person try to do?
