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 love when this happens so I know who to stop giving business.

    Lol you're gonna run out of companies to buy from and have to live in the woods like a hermit. Every company does this, not matter how big or small.

    Like... farmers are mostly conservstive and likely voted for a fascist, are you gonna stop buying food grown by farmers and grow your own?

    I'm sure Baofengtech makes a version for liberals too, probably in a brown box marked as recyclable.
