If anyone is worried about the CCP, remember that communism is less efficient and more dependent on spreading lies than capitalism is. We can put communism at a disadvantage by using Boost to communicate.

Not worried, just ready to make better choices. I still got to buy a phone, buy a computer, toys for my kid, a tv and so on.
The difference is being a more efficient consumer, trading little by little better sourced products where available within reach.
The thing that concerns me are the business and political elites that are aligning with the CCP to cement their grip on the world. First they bent over backwards to get into China, now they're working with the CCP to take over world.
I wouldn't be surprised if the Twitter hacks had something to do with the CCP, they're really desperate at the moment. Trade wars, the virus now floods. Australia has been under heavy cyber attacks. See how many servers went offline recently.
You prepared to pay more to boycott, can be difficult. In some ways it is ethical, but also superficial, avoiding empowering a tyrannical regime but at the same time taking work away from those in need.
We just have to play the long game.
It will be impossible for years to cut even 25% on normal purchases that are regularly made in China, but pressure is one thing & action is another. There is more one can do, please come with suggestions.
