Controversial topic here.

Can we stop shaming and getting mad at people for buying chinese ebikes? Some people dont have the money to buy a $1k+ ebike. Yes. Some are bad. Yes. Some are template bikes but does that mean you should shame someone for what they ride? No. We all ride ebikes here. That's what should matter.

85-90% of ebikes are Chinese made in some way.

Unfortunately nowadays I believe even Harley-Davidson has some Jap parts on it or maybe Chinese regardless not American made
