GOT7's Jackson has cut ties with Adidas due to the fashion brand's support of Xinjiang Laborers.

Adidas is one of the companies that are no longer using Xinjiang cotton due to the alleged use of forced labor and discrimination of ethno-religious minorities in Xinjiang to harvest cotton. Chinese nationals are now boycotting the brand among others.

Though GOT7 have been collaborating with Adidas since 2018, Jackson has now decided to cancel his endorsement of the brand. Jackson's official Weibo announced, "From today forward, this agency and Mr. Jackson Wang will cease all work with the brand Adidas Originals. The country's interests are above everything else, and the studio and Mr. Jackson Wang are strictly against all malicious acts that defame and slander China." CR.

CCP has been posting images comparing slave labor in the US south during the 19th century to Xinjiang today.  The point is supposed to be "the US is guilty of slave labor," but why on earth would you make the comparison??  Nobody in the US thinks US slavery was a good thing.

the comparison is backwards and stupid af

learn from history mistakes. don't repeat it.

Actually, I think the comparison is quite fitting honestly, but the CCP is not making the point they think they are.

that what i mean, the point they're trying to say doesn't make sense.
