    3 out of 5 posts hoping for Seal. From here we can tell how much China little pink indoctrinate their ideology. What is special about this model? Have you tested it? Have you look at the model in person? What is the rate of this model catching fire compared to other models of the same brands?

      Rather than spewing a bunch of nonsense, it’s best to get your mindset out of your own delusional hatred that has no basis whatsoever. How are you so sure about them being indoctrinated? Have you met them? Do you know them? How many comments have they posted for you to get the assumption that someone is being indoctrinated? Get out of your little world, would you?

        Roti canai, your comment is as bad as the original commenter. Don’t knock it till you tried it. Both making worthless criticisms based on 0 experience.
