MODERATORS
US looks very militaristic to me. It has a very broken democracy, and a history of supporting/causing brutal dictatorships.
The control the Chinese gov has over tiktok is on a different scale compared to Google and the US
Just to play devil's advocate here, how many military bases has China got in other countries, compared to the US?
How many McDonald's are there compared to general tso's chicken?
Both comparisons are irrelevant. It is about how much control and access China/US have over tiktok/Google and the user data and algorithms.
Archy really tried to pull out the Chewbacca Defense.
The USA hasn't taken territory since 1946.
The major reason for the USA being so broken is due to deregulation and corporate greed. Which is a little different in nuance to Authoritarian China.
The US doesn't try. It just bombs the fuck out of anyone worth exploiting production of anything any private exploitator willing to play "business" there wants.
The ol' "Bomb it to glass" tactic. A classic tragedy.
Ghastly business, that. Unavoidable, really, and tragic. Anyways, here's our top stories tonight: the US kills its own population with the most potent designer drugs in history, at a 0% tax revenue! "This is great for the economy", according to Experts, who warn that the same measures would be "devastating" under Democratic rule.
"Um, technically when we lost all those wars for profit and oil, we didn't seize any land. So, technically, we are the good guys."
Compared to the dictatorship who are in the process of seizing land and committing genocides on their (according to them) own peoples, yes the USA are fucking saints. See this is my exact problem, two bad things are not equivalent but so many people fail to grasp that.
