I agree with your stance on fast fashion but I find it interesting that when western companies catered to fast fashion, no one complained. Now that shein took off, they increased the narrative on fast fashion. You could easily keep and wear shein clothes long term and but H&M or Zara for fast fashion. It's a lifestyle they people chooses, not driven but any company. That's how MSM attacks shein.

Man, what a shit argument to make. All fast fashion that were or are led by Western companies never gave a thought about this real problem. There's a documentary made by American propaganda network DW about this issue where most of the clothes coming from the west are dump in Africa where people sift through mountains of clothes to re-sell to their community hoping to eek out some living out of it.
This ecological problem has been going on for decades and now that a non-white company has began to dominate the landscape all of a sudden these monkeys became woke activist for the environment?
I would be with you and the usual litany of complaints about the environment if there were concrete actions made prior and not just simply make hay about the problem when their economic competitive advantage has been eroded.
Westerners are the biggest mother effing hypocrites on the face of the earth.
It's an opportunity for the West to develop its recycling industry. Western countries can take this waste, process it (with Chinese technology) and send the resulting raw materials to China (where the value-add happens). Westerners have been complaining about their deindustrialization, so this is an excellent way to address those complaints.

(ECNS) -- A Virtual Rowing Invitational of the Shanghai Virtual Sports Open (SVS) was held Thursday.
Contestants participated via digital technologies and simulators in the two-kilometer virtual race track of Huangpu River against the background of Lujiazui, the financial zone of Shanghai.
Xu Zhigang, an official in charge of science and technology sports in the city, said virtual sports are attracting more participants, especially young people. “Technology empowering the development of sports has removed the barrier between the real and virtual sports,” said Xu.
Relying on meta-universe technology, virtual sports are attracting more outsiders, which are of minority interest through human-machine interaction and high-tech means such as AI intelligence and scene simulation.
The SVS has widened the range of China’s virtual sports and is expected to become a trend in the future, said You Huizhen, deputy director of a Shanghai-based company in charge of sport-related evaluation and consultation.
I mean yeah, it's also a largely consumer problem that those amount of wasteful companies became so popular, I don't think China is the problem, people are. We just really need ways to at least get rid of the waste instead of sending it off where we don't see it. I.e waste to energy plants.
Westerns need to reduce their per capita energy use and pollutant emissions, this is the key part. Then overall global emissions and non recyclable waste will be reduced by almost half
