    Nah they’re gonna go back to the slave labor and terrible working conditions angle (note anti China pr account already using this exact article as an example of it).

    While ignoring the reason why they are going back to China because the cheaper labor in worse conditions weren’t worth the issues they created in the product

      China hasn’t been a cheap labor market for a while now. The reason companies go to China is the industrial density and the scale of automation here. You gotta update your China tropes there.
