I’m gonna piggy back on this. I often like to go to sites and search for political terms, just to see how different competing sites are. If you search for “communism” on Amazon, most of your results are anti-communist, where as on Ali it’s hard to find anything anti-communist. On Amazon if you read the reviews on communist books or flags, for instance, you’ll see a lot of the reviews are from anti-communists. Whereas if you read the reviews from anti-communist or NATO backed flags or books (or what have you) on Ali, most of the reviews are pro-communist or anti-NATO.
Amazon and Ali harbour entirely different cultures, and their core demographics are totally different geopolitically. So, for communists, Ali really is the best place to find political stuff.
Man one time I tried to ask the seller on AliEx to urge President Xi to liberate my country but the message got blocked by the website’s filter for containing politics. Thought it would be a bit cringe to try and circumvent the filter so left it at that.
tldr: Buying plastic crap from private company that forces cuts out of peoples sales by making independent shops invisible is cool, but only if they are from “communist” country.
Nazi/fascist paraphernalia is extremely common on Amazon so no surprise there.
Literally five minutes of searching, and this isn’t even close all of the ones I found.

Also, I’ve not heard anything about Aliexpress treating their laborers like literal cattle, so that’s a plus.

What’s your point?
Both sides bad
surveillance capitalism bad
