It's amazing to me that people don't recognize the influence that this kind of platform has. I know it goes against the prevailing idea that American corporations are evil, but American companies are interested in making money while China is interested in the disruption of western society. They are not the same level of risk.
I'm not sure about that. The US and China sort of need each other, at least from an economic perspective. If one faces disruption, the effect on the other is guaranteed. I'm not saying they like each other, but the relationship is symbiotic in many ways.
US is way less dependent on imports than China is dependent on exports
Anything that tips the scale in favor of one tips it against the other. Why are Americans arguing for the US to have less leverage in this relationship? It's downright illogical.
