Chabuduo - good enough (on corner-cutting in China)

I found this article this morning, and while I have only begun to read it (at work, etc.) I find the subject interesting, and thought y'all might, too:

https://aeon.co/essays/what-chinese-corner-cutting-reveals-about-modernity

I am accustomed to seeing a lot of sort of reflexive prejudice in the US against Chinese-made goods, or goods made by Chinese or Chinese-owned companies. Often, I have found this to be uninformed. But often I find myself agreeing, and feeling like I understand without knowing exactly why. I think this article gets to that feeling. But it also goes into the positive expressions of this, and the marvelous creativity that it can lead to.
