why do you dislike Chinese phones ?
Permanently Deleted
It is an authoritarian regime after all, do you think that these phones are being used to aid their goals ? or maybe simply buying them helps support that regime ?

USA ... don’t bother my freedom or try to take over the world like fucking cartoon villains
Did I hallucinate all those military bases and imperialist wars?

You are one hell of a fucking clown.
Oh no, someone who thing the united states hasn't acted evil or tried to take over the world has a poor opinion of me.
saying you're a clown doesn't mean anything, we all seen these bases and we all know how the NSA monitors everyone, I'm waiting for a proper reply
My curiosity lies with peeps like the above actually being to walk around their house and not find things Made in China.
I know I'd be hard pressed, and then components in devices?

My personal philosophy is to not buy tech products designed and/or owned by Chinese companies. It is very difficult to avoid buying products manufactured in China, but very easy to avoid buying from Chinese companies. All you need to do is pay a bit extra. The problem I have with supporting Chinese tech companies is that they are all essentially owned by the CCP and any technological advances they make can and do directly contribute to the ongoing suppression of the freedom and human rights of minorities in the country. Personally I think it is worth spending a bit more on a non-Chinese product to avoid directly contributing to that problem.
All you need to do is pay a bit extra.
Like I said in another comment in here, I find it odd that we need/want to pay more for things that don't actually cost that more but do because some companies can't run the books right (ie: fat cats and excessive profits) and end up with massive corps having to submit a First Gazette Notice.
I had no idea what that meant since I found out last night my company I work for here in the UK, has done just that :/
Paying more for a product that better aligns with your interests, ethics or ideology.isn't a strange concept.
Being a consumer means I don't attribute others ethics, nor ideology, when making a buying decision.
I buy things because I'm a consumer of goods that tries to save myself from having to spend more, to line others greedy pockets though.
If those are my ethics, call me a dirty consumer perhaps? But people getting paid minimum wages whilst people who do nothing other than tell their sales department to up their price "just because" it doesn't come from a certain geography is like chopping your nose off to spite your face IMO.
edit: I found a perfect example of this. Berghaus fleece Vs a Amazon basics, or hell, even a Regatta fleece. Just the badge, and nothing else.
It's not an all or nothing situation. Like choosing to buy cheap clothing doesn't mean you can't practice ethical consumerism elsewhere. There is no contradiction there. Life is all about determining what values are important to you and attempting to uphold them to the best of your ability.
Absolutely!
And when you have a finite amount of money / time left on this planet I uphold my values of buying the best bang for buck.
Whether that's my Xiaomi router, phone, scooter, or even the cheapo Amazon basics fleece the first thing I do is look at the price and not if it comes from a country that others don't like.

at a very low price
This is another thing that makes me curious.
I live up North of the UK where prices are cheaper, wages are lower. Much much lower than the same costs etc down.....south of the very same country.
Things costing less than getting priced up for the sake of it, simply because of geography, is kinda baffling.
I dislike China in general.
I'm sure they dislike the phones you make, too.

I don’t give a single fuck about what they ... use.
I thought you minded they allegedly used slave labor.

So you do care about what they use?
