"sinophobia"

That translates to "fear of china" which is almost always incorrectly applied. Were there a single word for "boycotting china" that would be more appropriate.

It’s definitely fear based on the crap I’ve heard.

“Why would I buy a radio from communists. It’s probably bugged”

I facepalmed so hard I nearly imploded my skull on that.
