I'm sure you don't own anything made in China then. Canada, famous producer of consumer goods farquaad-point

Whatever little is actually made in Western countries anymore is shit quality designed to fall apart to make more profit just like everything else.

Well I do have one, but only this one item from Germany which I would say is pretty good. A Lamy Safari.

But that is seriously my only thing at home from Germany which I would consider high quality, hell all my Thinkpads are from China after all. Lmao

So they excel at trinkets maybe? Lol
