You first.
I'm talking about Chinese hackers, and you're trying to talk about... what exactly? Is your subject even on topic for this meme image?
Are you seriously saying the focus of your argument is closer to this topic than my focus on Chinese Hackers is? I dare you to try to tie your posts back to the root meme that started this topic.
You seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding about how discussions work. They change and evolve, a root meme is just that... a root. It is not the whole tree. There are no leaves on a root, yet there are many on the rest of a tree.
I'm talking about the basic nature what what these specific "Chinese hackers" are doing (which were never mentioned in the meme, so I'm not sure where you even got them, if you're so invested in it), which is capitalism. They are motivated by capitalism, just like the people exploiting the labor of the people they employ.
US style capitalism has strong IP protections that make Chinese-style Hacking / corporate espionage literally illegal. Literally illegal in our system.
Your argument flies in the face of obvious facts here.
