Did coerced labour build your car?

Chinese factories tied to Xinjiang forced labour feed supply chains for practically every major carmaker – and tariffs won’t stop that

wrote on last edited by [email protected]It's remarkably light on details about the coerced / forced labour.
It just mentions that they ship in thousands of workers from the western regions of China where there are forced / coerced labour issues.
I'm not one to trust or believe the Chinese government, but this article didn't exactly convince me there was an issue in the first place.Edit: never mind, I missed the link to this article which has a lot more detail: https://www.thebureauinvestigates.com/stories/2025-05-29/chinas-economy-runs-on-uyghur-forced-labour

Don’t worry, the ML are totally cool with this by just denying it exists and focusing on destroying the US.

You can rest easy now.

Where do we draw the line with what is/isn't coercion? "Wage slave" is a commonly used phrase for a reason. Most people face the threat of homelessness and starvation if they don't work.
But this gets a little philosophical. I'm going to interpret it to mean: "labor standards and practices that are considered unfair by developed western nations." Unfortunately this is pervasive and many common products fall under this.
