Here's a site that recovered some comments that were removed.
There are a few there that express "hatred" per predditor standards. If that is against the 3d printing sub's rules, then I could see where a typical preddit mod would just take the "y'all can't behave" route.
I can believe that. And I honestly don't even have a problem with pruning nasty comments in a sub like that. I would expect a Reddit sub on 3D printing to not be nearly as spicy as some place like here.
What irked me was the mod's reason for locking the thread said:
Nearly all of the comments are simply hate
Which is complete BS. People saying "my prototype appeared on Alibaba within a day of me sending it to my Chinese manufacturer" isn't hate. It's accurately reporting behavior from a country that doesn't honor intellectual property in any way shape or form.
How it works is.. factories will agree to make stuff for you for cheap. But unofficially, they gonna use the master copies to make copies. Thats how it works. Ive actually tried to seek out clothing production.
I saw one comment in there that I thought was pretty clever.
Somebody said they designed something, but didn't have the money or capability to produce it so they sent it for prototyping in China and then bought up all the unauthorized copies that were made to mark them up and sell at retail. They basically tricked China into being their manufacturer.
The only thing I can't figure out is what prevented the consumers from just buying directly from the Chinese.
The concept of “ancient Chinese inventions” itself was invented by some western scholars who can barely read Chinese. They would see any rough text and drawing about any stuff and immediately jumped to conclude that the Chinese invented that.
I scanned almost the entire reply section and didn't see a single ethnic slur or slanderous comment. I saw:
Reddit is so fucking PC that calling China out using the truth is considered insulting.
Reddit is partly owned by China. Can’t upset the overlords.

I mean its crawling with Chinese bots.
And then another Chinese company will steal the knockoff and shave off another 1-2 cents.

how a liberal interprets the word "hate":
nuke peking
What are the Chinese cultural products we are consider crucial for the survival of our society? paper and gunpowder ?

Ancient Egypt had a paper equivalent with papyrus
Off the top of my head: paper money, printing, rocket, MRL.
I seem to recall reading that they were the first to pipe natural gas into their houses for cooking and such.
Disney mods, of course they locked it.
