And try to avoid Chinese products whenever possible.

So just stop using literally any and everything, got it.

There's still non Chinese companies...

That's not really helpful when the vast majority still manufacture in China, and at best 'assemble' somewhere else.

A Western company still has a different level of oversight & quality assurance than a Chinese company.

It's an outdated argument.
There's both quality and crappy stuff coming from China.

I made no comment about the quality of Chinese goods, just their ubiquity.
