Some fucking MBA shithead decides to save a couple bucks on parts by putting plastic internals in a part that sees torque and now my fucking shower valve face comes shooting off the wall like it’s a goddamn rocket and I come back from being away to steam condensation dripping off the ceilings and water rifling out of the wall like the goddamn Trevi fountain
So now I shut off the water, pulled out the old cartridge with the valve stem broken clear in two and replaced it with a CHINESE one that is properly made out of FUCKING BRASS like it should have been in the first place, all of which could have been avoided if this made in germany bullshit had been properly built to begin with
German engineering my fucking ass
The whole almost eugenicist racial aspect that is tied to where shit is manufactured is a whole shibboleth of mystic bullshit layered on top of the National character of Peoples that creates a false reality of manufactured shit being graded with racial phenotypes instead of how it’s made.
Funnily enough, “made in Germany” was also meant to warn of the bad quality capitalist Germany pumped out after WW2.
