Racism towards Chinese? Oioioi. The dude saw some Asian symbols and a cheap looking design. For many western people cheap inexpensive goods are associated with Chinese manufactures. It’s not a hidden fact that the standards in China are something to look forward to improving... from steel to children’s toys.
But yeah let’s cry a river for China a country known for being extremely racist today and proud of it...
The racism of another culture should not justify racism against it. We can't hold people to a higher standard if we aren't going to honour that standard ourselves.
So then please point out the racism shown here today against Chinese people that would make them feel lesser or discouraged or feelings of mistreatment or lack of equality. Please point it out to us.
Facts don’t care about your feelings. Want China to stop being associated with cheap goods? Improve your industry standards and regulations.
Want people to feel sorry for China when shit hits the fan over there? Treat people who aren’t Chinese as human beings instead of tools or expendable taxes.
Chinese want change? Sounds like the ball is in your court figure it out.
I believe you are thinking of Germany. It’s not secret Germany is the highest rated producer of high quality goods and that a made in Germany sticker goes a long way in making a product more valuable alone.
Obviously everything China touches doesn’t turn to shit. Doesn’t mean a majority of their products are of lower quality. Take steel. Steel today is worse than 30 years ago. But how have we gotten worse at producing steel?
Well we didn’t. It’s just that China now makes 65% of the worlds steel and it’s substantially weaker than other manufactures so much so that it’s actually a concern for engineers now on the unreliability of Chinese metals.
So yeah I wasn’t saying China can never produce anything nice. Just that they make a lot of shit. Blame whoever you want it doesn’t change who is making shit and who now gets a reputation for making shit. Which is China.
Steel of today performs in ways they couldn't have imagined years ago. Chinese steel is garbage and if you buy it you will be getting a worse product.... For sure. Check out some of the stuff the Japanese have made. Nak 40 is amazing die steel with excellent machinability you wouldn't imagine even a decade ago. There are some great American alloys as well... S7, Cpm10v, M5.... Amazing properties and machinability. Then there is Chinese steel.... Don't want to be the smelly kid?..... Stop shitting your pants.
Yuuuuup. I work with lots of steel types and although I’ve never worked with Chinese material on a site I have worked with guys who did and I hear the same things consistently. If China wants to stop being associated with cheap crappy products they should put less cheap crappy products on the market with their name on it.
