Nothing about Saudi Arabia is pro-consumer.

If this is the thinking I can expect on this instance, perhaps this is not the instance for me.

I feel that maybe you're reading my question as 'critique of China is inherently support for the west/US/etc' which I absolutely do not mean.

I am asking this in full earnestness: is any critique of the Chinese government assumed to be rooted in xenophobia?
