China

Working conditions in many Chinese sweatshops and factories are abominable, just like the European factories and sweatshops of the 19th century that Karl Marx railed against.

I’m not knowledgable on these cases. Can someone else look into this?

Additional comment since it's another thing entirely. This is not true anymore. Their info is severely out of date, like most westerners when they speak about China. Nowadays "sweatshops" (they mean factories) even have trouble finding employees because the new generation doesn't want to do it. They have other opportunities. It's come to the point where some factories will lodge you, feed you, and pay you a sign-on bonus on top of your normal wage. Many younger people in China do it as a summer job.

I knew I had issues with Current Affairs and this is why. Using the aesthetic of Marxism with none of the actual substance. Doing a shoutout to Marx and expecting everyone to turn their heads and bow in reverence at the name drop. I don't even know where Marx 'railed' against 19th century factories, he probably did, but his bigger point was not so much the conditions of the factories but the condition of the proletariat. They're making him seem like a socdem... because that's what they are.
