    I’m aware of what lululemon is but not aware of what’s going on in New. What’s up?

      USian garment manufacturer who has sweat shops multiple employment opportunities for slave labour workers out in Asia; therefore their products will now be tariffed upon import.

      Edit: They are Canadian, see below, but incorporated in the US.

        Apparently the creator is also racist and purposely named it to be hard for speakers of East Asian languages to pronounce, but I believe everything I read on the internet.

          Probably - make cheap, sell high is good business sense, at the end of the day; if you’re only concern is pure profit.

        Lululemon is Canadian, but you’re right about most of the products being made in various Asian countries.

        But also their CEO is a piece of garbage and nobody should be buying their overpriced shit anyway.

      There just seems to be a lot of posts, I guess it’s very popular but I don’t know what it is.
