- masfenix, on 04/12/2008, -12/+412This post was made in china.
- sleeknerve, on 04/12/2008, -4/+365the megaphone was obviously made in Taiwan, dont know what this is talking about
- dustin32, on 04/12/2008, -4/+256But once you found one that wasn't made in China, did it blend?
- inactive, on 04/12/2008, -29/+246Don't forget that 90% of the protestors didn't give a flying ***** about Tibet about 2 weeks ago and in a week they won't even remember the name.
- EntangledPhysx, on 04/12/2008, -8/+216With food imported from China
- Cofaloaf, on 04/12/2008, -2/+178Cost-effective protesting.
- mountainsurfer, on 04/12/2008, -15/+179What are they supposed to do, walk around naked? You can't find ANYTHING that isn't made in China these days. I went to buy a new blender the other day and had to go to five stores to find one that wasn't made in China.
- diggSJaustin, on 04/12/2008, -5/+152Congrats on making the first "Will it blend?" joke that earned positive votes in the past 12 months.
- inactive, on 04/12/2008, -13/+150What, because China is an industrial powerhouse, we can't object to their gross human rights abuses?
- displaced1, on 04/12/2008, -27/+113His fat belly and double chin, made in America.
- StaticThunder, on 04/12/2008, -4/+79Yeah, so you bought the German one with parts made in China. Good job.
- DephexTwin, on 04/12/2008, -10/+78Shut up. Good for him if he did that. I'm not going to get angry at someone who doesn't make that kind of effort, but kudos to anyone who can and does.
- peterjmag, on 04/12/2008, -8/+72At least his fat was made in America.
- CaptainJapan, on 04/12/2008, -2/+48This year when nobody watches the olympics, people can tell themselves that they are boycotting China, as opposed to the last few olympic games, when people didn't watch because they just didn't give a *****.
Does it count as a boycott if you were going to ignore it anyway? - WiZZLa, on 04/12/2008, -0/+44All of North America includes Canada? That's crazy talk.
- conscious, on 04/12/2008, -5/+45Wow. I think there are very few people, even among those sympathetic to Tibet who would travel to five stores just to support that cause. Well done.
- staticneuron, on 04/12/2008, -3/+41What?!?! That can't be.... FREE TAIWAN!!!!
- kylere, on 04/12/2008, -2/+39Looks like a WalMart shopper
- MikeEnIke, on 04/12/2008, -19/+56You cared that much?
- DarkPrince11, on 04/12/2008, -2/+38*their
- KyloOb, on 04/12/2008, -15/+46This is freaking stupid, just because you happen to be supporting the people of china by buying products manufactured by them, doesn't mean you support their UNELECTED government.
- gabrielg01, on 04/12/2008, -5/+33There is no hypocrisy here. Just because a bunch of things are made in China, it does not mean that we should allow them to walk over human rights.
- acdcfanbill, on 04/12/2008, -1/+26Well, the island of Taiwan is ruled by the Republic of China which is quite different from the People's Republic of China. The People's Republic is the mainland, what people normally refer to as China. The Republic of China is what Chiang Kai-shek created, leaving the mainland and giving way to the Communists. The Republic of China still lays claim to the mainland (China) though most nations haven't recognized that since the '70s.
- ayeroxor, on 04/13/2008, -9/+33Sorry for the comment abuse, but here's a scenario for all the idiots who think this submission is accurate:
Suppose Shopkeeper A beats and rapes his wife and children. Let's see how a conversation might go:
Person B: Hey, Shopkeeper A, stop beating and raping your wife and children
Shopkeeper A: You buy your goods at my shop. Therefore you have no moral authority to tell me to stop beating and raping people.
Is that really how it works for some of you? - inactive, on 04/12/2008, -6/+30Do you know how percentages work?
- XBSHX, on 04/13/2008, -1/+25That doesn't really work because Person B isn't threatening to boycott only the things that won't affect his life. The point of the comic is that the person is boycotting the olympics, which really has no affect on his life, and yet he wont boycott the clothes he buys that would have a much larger impact and put a lot of pressure on china.
- inactive, on 04/12/2008, -3/+26Poor quality cars and inferior-style electronics.
- 4NDr01D, on 04/12/2008, -2/+25anyone remember when Wal-Mart used to sell US made products ?
yeah it was a while ago (10-15 years) - ZenMojo, on 04/12/2008, -8/+31Dugg down for self-important reflections on the supposed unproven hypocrisy of the commitment of some Americans to REAL causes while said poster sits on his ass doing nothing.
- wordglue, on 04/12/2008, -6/+28I see the point and I disagree with it. I should be able to eat my steak and still protest animal cruelty on corporate farms. There's not much one can do if EVERYTHING is made in China, that guy still needs to buy a shirt (short of going Ghandi) at least he is striving to bring awareness to the cause.
- diggdiggerid, on 04/12/2008, -5/+27Boycotting Chinese products isn't hurting anyone but the Chinese people. Do you seriously think Hu Jintao and gang are going to be affected in the slightest? It's the same as the Cuban embargo. Castro is still living in luxury, it's only the peasants that we're hurting.
- brokenex, on 04/12/2008, -1/+23what american goods
- inactive, on 04/12/2008, -2/+22Has anyone noticed that a lot of things that used to be "made in China" are "made in Taiwan," or India, Mexico, Indonesia, etc? I don't know if there's a statistical reality to that observation though.
- snoox, on 04/12/2008, -9/+29"What are they supposed to do, walk around naked?"
1)make your own clothes in the usa. 2)dont be a hypocrite. 3) then protest - renagadex2, on 04/12/2008, -1/+21Except we pay that hand to feed us.
- Railz, on 04/13/2008, -0/+20China actually has to import a lot of its food.
- Wugie, on 04/12/2008, -3/+23Free Tibet
with purchases over $20 - Pake, on 04/12/2008, -8/+27That's there plan though. They plan to fatten us all up and eat us.
- tolbs, on 04/12/2008, -0/+19of theoretical dollars i'm sure :)
- blate, on 04/12/2008, -0/+19Well...there's zippos....and FREEDOM!
- jstem1994, on 04/12/2008, -0/+17Wait. 99.9% of Canada is made in China? I'm confused.
- inactive, on 04/12/2008, -1/+17Do you know how hard it is to find crap that didn't come from China? And it's not just crap you don't need - don't be an arrogant twit and ignore the fact that the clothes on your back likely come from China, too.
- mediaphile, on 04/12/2008, -0/+16Why can't an entire country of people focus on more than one cause?
- inactive, on 04/12/2008, -2/+17I wanted to make a shirt that said "FREE TIBET", with a stamp near it saying it was "Made in China". Guess I got beat :/
I would have made millions. - OutThisLife, on 04/12/2008, -6/+21***** that was hard to read.

- Crizack, on 04/12/2008, -3/+16Most are made up like yours?
