Yeah in a global environment essentially China is the workforce/factory workers of the previous gilded age.

And it's pretty much exactly my point that their union (the government) is finally pushing back against the management while being not exactly kind to their workers.

We are essentially reliving through a new worker rebellion but from the governments of the global south with their own layers of local nuance underneath that.
Weird times.

Maybe 15-20 years ago, but not so much anymore. Cost of labor has been rising in China dramatically to the point that a lot of manufacturing is leaving China.
