While I want to do away with prison/slave labor entirely, I didn’t know car license plates in the United States were trivial luxury goods. Why the false equivalency?
Also, the Chinese terrorist groups are the reason Facebook is banned in China, as the US and Facebook refused to assist the Chinese government investigate groups related to the Urumqi riots, who were using the Facebook platform.
Absolute false equivalency. One is a luxury consumer product, one the government baked into their system and made a requirement so everyone has to have two to use a vehicle, which you need if you wanted to exist in society. I think y’all have it backwards which is worse. I don’t have to buy a labubu
Y’all gotta remember I’m in California the slave fire fight state. That is like, worse than all of that. Buncha bullshit.
How is it a false equivalency? The Workers produce, among many other things, cotton, which is not a luxury good. There is no claim that they made labubus, but that some of the cotton involved came from some of the work camps in Xinjiang.
China’s “forced labor camps” are part of the prison reform initiative. Nearly every East Asian country has a version of this, wherein workers learn a trade and produce goods; the sale of which to the general market subsidizes their wages which they build up during their sentence which allows them to have savings when they exit back to society, with state-guaranteed experience in a specific job. Farming is popular because, you know, it’s China. Making those that go against society do the most basic and necessary work in society to understand what they are harming has been their modus operandi since the revolution.
Your problem with ‘trivial luxury goods’ being made by prisoners though just means you have more of a problem with the US than with China; as in the US ‘prisoners’ are leased to private corporations like Walmart, McDonald’s, Wendy’s, Starbucks, Sprint, Verizon, Avis, AT&T, and Aramark.
China uses ‘forced labor’ to ‘produce cheap materials’ that need to be used in some way since they’re the by product of teaching prisoners a trade. The US has never even thought about abolishing slavery and every fortune 100 corporation in the US uses slavery to produce final products that you directly buy and consume.

False equivalency is a reach.
