Competition is good for the consumer.

except what is happening now is not really any kind of fair competition. the european manufacturers exported they know-how to china, which was strategic failure, it was stolen, and now it is sold back to us with the advantage of cheap chinese production.

they will ruin our production and we will be in a similar situation where we were during covid, when the political leadership were saluting the china cargo airplanes on tarmac, otherwise it would not bring us masks, syringes, or any other stuff whose production we had given up and outsourced to china

unless we turn the ship around quite soon, we will be regretting it soon and for a long time.

China would love so much to rule the world, that’s why it hasn’t entered any war in the past 40+ years

the global south are happy to enter the comparably advantageous economic deals

are they happy? and are the deals advantageous? can you back up your claims? 😂

As for “dictator”, look at the approval rates of Xi in China

oh yes, the approval rating of a dictator in a dictatorship is very valid metric 😂. (hint hint: they are irrelevant even if they were not fixed. any kind of approval rating bears zero relevance to whether the country is a totalitarian state or not, or whether the country is a threat to its neighbours or not).

I would say go with whatever company that doesn't have a CEO throwing Nazi salutes.

I have no doubt most CEOs are psychopaths, but they also don't own a global Nazi mouthpiece like twitter

So did you mean "CEOs not throwing a Nazi salute" or "CEOs whose Nazi salutes don't show up on your twitter feed"?

It seems you forgot what your argument is in a span of two rebuttals

You definitely sound like your advocating for musk.

You should work on your reading comprehension then
