I bought some cheap Chinese 2-way radios. The packaging has a big American flag and a “Designed in U.S.A.” claim, which I suspect is bullshit given the company involved. Also, there are two Bible verses referenced. This smacks of pandering to a particular slice of conservative Americans. All I want is cheap radios for skiing with my kids next winter, not a reminder of my country’s socio-political bullshit.

      I was caught off guard when I initially saw it, but a Google search showed it for what it was.

      If you feel compelled to hide the fact that you made something because you feel other people will look on in judgment, not buy your product…would this not compel the normal person to look inward & ask, “Are we the baddies?” 🤔
