Voting with your dollar is a myth (it’s a myth that workers have any vote, not that the dollar controls the imperial core).

Very much a strawman argument. China can offer cheap electric cars because they aren’t paying american car company CEOs. Also, your argument supposes that American manufacturers aren’t supporting IDF…
