US exploitation = "that's the free market baby!"
China exploitation = "a threat to American democracy!"

That is a false equivalency. You know it too. If it wasn't you would have something to back that statement up.
The bad actions of one party does not justify the bad actions of another.
China can literally mobilized a bunch of people to change the mindset of ordinary Americans. Make them vote for a president that aligns closer to China. Make people think it's ok to invade Taiwan and ok to claim the south China seas.
They are close if not already there with the technology. Luckily we have time on our side and the teenagers who are already mobilized are not at the voting age.
Because it's a false strawman
Shhh the tankies might hear you.
I can make shit up too
As a privacy advocate, I hate all of them. But the main difference is, that unlike China, the U.S. government doesn't have a 'golden share' in those companies.
