The last few sports shoes I've bought have been made in Thailand and Vietnam.

My recent Nikon camera was made in Thailand, as was a new lens I bought for it.

Plenty of other countries which can make quality products.

If businesses pull out of China they can invest in several countries in South East Asia and South Asia.

Actually that started happening as soon as Trump put tariffs on China. Hopefully he cranks them up further- right after we move pharmaceutical precursor manufacturing back to the USA, haha.

Wait is this boycott retroactive?

Is the request to get rid of already purchased products? Or to not buy them in the future?

What if we’ve been to China in the past? Should we go back and tell them it was a mistake you ever came there in the first place?

Too difficult? So keep it simple, don't buy anything with any chinese made parts in it, nothing which is made in china for foregin brands etc. or shorten version: Just stop buying anything, because you can't avoid chinese products. Even that whey protein, where do you think they get those ingredients?

Same here.  Especially foods, pet foods or anything else that's ingested or goes on the skin, like shampoo, soaps, hand sanitizers, lotions, mouthwash, makeup, kleenex...

Smart. Products made in China often contain toxic materials, and / or allergens such as nickel. As there is no freedom of speech or press freedom in communist countries, it's easy for companies to break the law / add or use illegal or dangerous stuff to their products.

Bribery and corruption also are a big problem in countries like Russia, china, North Korea etc.

Both for health and environmental reasons (not to mention human and animal righst violations) I think it's best to buy goods made in for example Germany, Canada, USA, Australia, UK, Northern Europe etc etc)

Trump was so right on China the Dems shouldn't even run this time around.

It's not like we didn't know the seasonal flu comes from China every year. They take zero responsibility and attack any criticism. In fact the wording they use sounds a lot like CNN/MSNBC.


Here is Red China in full view, blaming the USA for having their disease that they hid from the world while people from Wuhan freely flew all over the world for the New Year:


“Some U.S. officials just want to shift the blame,” Hua told a regular briefing in Beijing. “Actually we don’t want to fall into an argument with them, but faced with such repeated moral slander by them, I feel compelled to take some time and clarify the truth again.”

Hua questioned the speed of the U.S.’s response to the virus after banning arrivals from China on Feb. 2. “Can anyone tell us what the U.S. has done in the following two months?” she said.

Trump is the only leader who has the guts to stand up against the chinese filth and terror. All other western "leaders" are scared of china.
Even though practically all countries buy a lot more from china, than they buy from us.

Terrible trade balance, in their favor alas

Hopefull production / manufacturing will now shift to other countries than china.
Perhaps I'm sounding naive, but I do hope this is a giant and nasty wake up call to politicians all over the world to rethink doing business with the chinese dictator

So you are an idiot, aren't you?  How about some facts: They make LG, Lenovo, Huawei, ONE +, Xiaomi, ZTE, TCL/Alcatel, Huawei, Coolpad,etc. and all and any sort of electronic components, used in just about all electric products there is, used by your military in its missiles, weapons etc. You are using chinese products just about every second in your life, not least when you are writing that crap in this forum, beating chinese keyboard, connected in the computer made in china, or computer which maybe is assembled outside of china, but with parts made in china. Throw out everything in your apartment, lock all the doors and windows, and sit naked in dark in the empty room. That is only way to avoid using any chinese products, because even in that light bulp has chinese parts in it  ;D

Who says do it right away?! 100 years ago what did China make compared to the USA? Traitors and greedy elite in the west outsourced manufacturing to China over decades. But they were stupid because eventually these elite would be replaced by their Chinese counterparts.

If people boycott Chinese products then eventually someone else will fill the void. A politician like Trump is also helpful because he places tariffs on China. Too bad there are not more politicians like Trump. You think Obama, Clinton or Biden would have stood up to China?! LOL!

Boycott Chinese products?  Okay, you go first.

Start by throwing away your TV, cell phone, computer, coffee maker, toaster, blender, light bulbs, headphones, bluetooth.

After you're finished with that, we can get started on your non electronic items.   :D

You should ask what was china 1000 years a go, or 2000 years ago, because china is one of the oldest organized society on this planet. During the history of the mankind, countless inventions has come from there. What was USA 2000 years ago? Some bare butt Indian  braves living in the tents, eating rodents  ;D

As stupid as you are, you don't understand that you don't know shit about the china, because it has been communist country last 80 years. By it's 1,4 billion people they could do anything they want, and Trump knows it. It doesn't take long before he is kissing their ass just like nothing has ever happen. Just like South Korea, Russia etc. best friends of his  ;D

It should. 3M apparently has no problem shipping them outside the USA. Production must be humming along.

The USA achieved the worlds number 1 economy in less than 300 years
That's quite impressive by any standard

(All economic data from china are rigged. Their national debt probably is a lot higher than they are admitting. It could even be worse than the Japanese debt ratio, so perhaps as high as 300% or 400% of GNP. Or maybe even more than that)

The reason china produces so much protective mouth / nose mask (often of poor and not medical quality) probably is the horrific air pollution in china



In Hong Kong they even have a large photo especially for tourists if they can't see the skyline because of extreme air pollution levels

With some electronics there's little choice, but with a lot of other things consumers can make a difference

china's messed up lying communist "leaders" do not care about people, nature, or our planet. However, they do care if a consumer boycott creates mass unimployment in their fascist state.
That will cause severe instability, something the chinese communist party is very worried about

Clothes, shoes, cars, motorcycles, interior decoration: quite easy to buy American, European, or other non-chinese sourced

APPLE doesn't want to produce in the USA. American jobs? Apple could not care less. Apple does not like excellent profits margins, Tim Cook wants extreme profit margins (preferably without paying taxes, which is something for ordinary people to do)

As nobody really needs Apple products, a boycott will force Tim Cook to pay attention and hopefully change his mind

Ropo makes it seem like China is the centre of the world and we can not live without it. Nothing made there is not made elsewhere too, its just a matter of voting with your wallet in end.

I hear you about bocotting chinese products, but surely when visiting China on vacation we can still buy food at their markets? We don't have to go to extremes with the boycott.

Now I know you are a fucking troll, lol. I visited the Chinese National Museum in Taipei on my last visit there. A complete history is on display of all Chinese art and technology for over 5000 years. China on its own was one of the most backward countries in history. The first watch in Chinese history was a bad copy of one given to an emperor by the British in the 1800’s. They are about original as your posts Ropo, haha
