Okay, I kind of hinted at this but:
Taiwan is not China. Taiwanese people are not “Chinese”. Please stop mixing the two up. That is the kind of heinous shit that Xinnie the Poo does.

Factories share some similar characteristics no matter they are in the world. I’ve seen first-hand examples of it in a few countries and second-hand examples in many others.
Even places squarely “first world” such as Japan, South Korea or Singapore have very similar expectations for factory work, such as long hours in exchange for low salary.
You can keep being petulant and attempting to force your opinion on the subject, I’ve said what I had to.

You had to call Taiwanese people Chinese? Repeatedly?

They’re Chinese. They’re from the Republic of China.

Taiwanese people are ethnically Chinese.
That said, I don’t have a dog in that fight and don’t care one way or another whether Taiwan is considered part of China or a separate country.
You seem offended by that for some reason, so my last reply to you is: I first said Asian/Chinese. I wasn’t implying any political innuendo into the matter, I was merely referencing common Asian practices that I know are true in Taiwan as well as mainland China. Factories are factories, be it in mainland China, Taiwan, Japan, Vietnam, Africa or anywhere else. Stop trying to read offense where there isn’t.
And have a nice day.

They are “ethnically chinese” in the same way that Americans are “ethnically british”.
Except, no, that doesn’t work. Because there are a lot of different peoples in the US. Well, there are also Uyghurs in china… for the time being. So I guess that doesn’t work either.
But that is the thing about dog whistles. They fall apart under a modicum of scrutiny. Really, all they do is make people even dumber than the folk spewing them feel warm and fuzzy. So… probably not good for your social credit score that you are acknowledging how fucking stupid Xinnie the Pooh and the rest of his CCP goons are.
