I'm going to stop talking to you now because wtf are you even on about. No one said anything about not wanting to buy Chinese goods. I specifically buy Chinese goods because at least their billionaires are kept to heel and are doing less to actively fuck over my life than Jeff Bezos.
Also no one said anything about Temu encryption but you, so again, wtf are you even on about?
Well, I'm happy to stop talking if you're the type more interested in catfighting than even interpreting the conversation correctly. GreenBottles did in fact start off saying Microsoft is using Temu encryption. If Microsoft was using Temu encryption then their customers would be safe & they would have a record of zero data breaches. I don't think farmers would buy anything important on Temu, I never said no Chinese person would use it. This is anecdotal from speaking to urbanites who were more interested in high-quality manufacturing for throwing some money around in the markets. Nevermind!
I'm glad you buy your Chinese stuff directly instead of through Bezos, but I hope you can see that the kids using Temu synonymously with "dogshit" are being somewhat racist. Since this isn't based off a comparison with durable good from Amazon or the supermarket. Amazon support just isn't worth the markup. It's informed by propaganda spreading through unconventional means such as gore websites plastered with Russian and Chinese industrial accidents or hit-and-runs from the 2000s. Things change, and when that change is accompanied by a meme where a Chinese company is used as an adjective meaning dogshit, I think, well, the advertising firms that these Fortune 500 companies employ would feel quite chickenshit if they got beaten to the punch by natural slang developments. They'd be saying gee, I wish we got them talking like this five years before.
No one likes you
Americans, when you remind them they live in a world of shit they created: "You have to want me to like you or you're a bad person lol"
No, I don't. You are pond scum. Put me on the phone with your mother. I'll give that slag what for. You were raised up wrong.
