China is the world's largest economy, there's no way to avoid doing business with it.

Doesn’t mean you can’t try. Being deliberate with whom you associate is all you can really do.

History is chock full of examples that demonstrate otherwise.

It's the second largest economy. And I agree that it's practically impossible to avoid it completely, I only suggest avoiding it where possible.

My personal rule is to not buy anything made in China for more than $100. I can't avoid buying Chinese for cheap plastic crap, but for significant purchases it's worth the time to be ethical in your purchasing decisions.

So you haven't bought a smartphone, computer, camera, etc? Give me a break. You should boycott australian goods too. It's committed genocide and stole land/resources from the aborigines and got rich selling resources to china.

No, they shouldn't let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
