What we have here is case of good old American marketing deception. Man, I should be living for free based on all the freebies handed out by Americans. Marketeers count on suckers, based on continuation of falsehoods stated in marketing, no lack of them. Suddenly, people at least getting something for their money, and good value proposition based on posts here, are the suckers, and the sellers thieves. I think some have the whole equation mixed up here.
@theaudioamp They don't care about the price charged for them, preposterous, the anger goes up in correlation to price, Go through endless threads here for proof of that. Doesn't even make sense based on logic, I'd be far more pissed spending a $1k fake vs $100 fake.
I won't even argue in regard to the fact Chinese play by different rules, mentioned that in prior post. US made decision to play this game knowing full well the rules of game. Short term profitability and regard only for investor class by global capitalists made this happen. This is war of capitalism, no chivalry, total war, this is always the way it goes with humans.
Suddenly all this concern with ethics and principles, and all over some relatively cheapo cables. Is this really the line in sand you're drawing, those lines were obliterated long ago. You all better get real, understand we live in global world, never going back to this protectionist isolated realm of self sufficiency. The MAGA world is pure delusion.
