Literally almost everything you own or purchase was manufactured in China, and has been for 30+ years. They’ve risen most of their population out of poverty and have been stringently educating their youth as well. “Ghost cities” are becoming populated urban centers, as they planned.
They have the manpower, infrastructure, and smarts to absolutely beat us at our own game, and our rich, Republican billionaire elites fucking sold it to them for the chance to lower labor costs and keep more of the profit themselves.
And you’re still like “hurrr durr Chinese shit cheap” like dude you’re typing on a device made in china, even the most top of the line shit. You’re already IN China, my man.
@4am@Fake4000 too true. The same quality issue was levelled at Japan 50 years ago and now they are the go to for quality cars. My kids have a Polestar (not cheap) made in China and so far no faults and they love it. #evs#china
Considering even Tesla’s cars in China is of higher quality then the same model build in the US. I am inclined to doubt the quality of electric vehicles not built in China.
I absolutely hate Chinese car manufacturers, but they made it clear that western car makers don’t want to create affordable EVs.
Hate why?
Generally don’t trust their build quality.
Based on what though? Any hard facts or is it just like racism or xenophobia or something?

Well R&D costs a ton of money
The reason why Chinese ones are so cheap is that the government is subsidizing them
thats the correct thing to do if you want to transition away from oil fast.
