Yeah, we have let that happen and it is not essential, there are other places and decent prices, everyone is just lazy and wants things cheaper, cheaper goods are just that…suck it up buttercup, losing 93 billion is going to do something and people will adjust, it isn’t a big deal, besides a lot of that stuff is poison ☠️….put your money where it should be, mostly anywhere else…maybe have some ethics, at all….there is not going to be more poverty for us, Etsy sales will go up…any Chinese poverty will only change things for the elite
After being pointed out most of the stuff on Etsy is made from imported materials
You can get the essential things wherever, stop buying junk that you don’t need, end of story…I think that all electronics will eventually come back, granted we should have upped our game on making computer chips, instead of killing the program, especially just cuz someone said they would put a manufacturing company here that we won’t see the profits from…but that isn’t the issue, the issue is that they are slavers and we don’t need their crap…but lots of places make these goods besides China…people are just spoiled and entitled, most everywhere in the world tariffs China, actually all imported goods
Get over it, you’ll go through withdrawals, but when you come out the other side, you will be better for it
All this talk suddenly coming from a people who lost their minds over covid lockdowns. Anyway this dude only buys essential things not made with slave labour, like... Chinese retro handhelds. But that's okay, because he thinks Retroid was founded by a Brit
I do trust them a little but, since the guy that started the company is from the UK I think…it is not hypocritical to buy one thing before tariffs and I will use it for a longtime, like I said and I paid a fair and actually expensive price for it
There's something quite magical about Americans saying this shit about China when they live in the biggest, most disgusting dump the planet has ever fucking seen
To cap things off, here's some random guy from Eastern Europe chiming in with his input
"the subjugation of a whole people that will never have a chance to have a better life, to speak freely, to not just see propaganda, no way to not be owned by the government…"
^ That's how we in the communism-plagued half of Europe lived for 45 years (some even longer), several countries (including China) still live, and how the "Western" leftists would condemn everyone to live had they have a chance to implement their marxist dystopia.

false! thinking for yourself is when you agree with me about capitalism being god!
