Is it racist to say I'd never buy a Chinese car just on principle?

Electric cars are so much simpler than ICEs...they're almost "phones with wheels"...so IF you happen to ~~"trust"~~ "buy" their phones, it's not a huge jump to cars...but it's a jump ๐Ÿ˜… , just not on principle.

I get your point but choosing Chinese phones as a trust example is hilarious. Every Chinese phone has a backdoor straight to China.

Your Apple or Android have a high probability of having all or part made in China.
