There's this (apparently) acceptable racist thing of referring to poor quality products as "Chinese crap" whether or not they are Chinese. I hear otherwise "enlightened" people say it a lot.
1. Not all crap products are Chinese
2. Not all Chinese products are crap
Moreover, if you are buying crap from China, that's on you. "It's just Chinese crap". Yeah, but it's all you can afford. They saw you coming.
