    ridiculous kindergarten-tier reasoning

    like pottery

    "waaahhh they're only DISPASSIONATELY SELLING the racism, they don't actually feel it in their hearts!"

    First of all that's irrelevant
    Second of all your work almost always becomes your personality to some extent so you're almost certainly wrong

      And you're better, right? No. You aren't. I'm on hexbear fairly frequently. I don't have any issue with hexbear or lemmygrad. I'm just not ignoring the fact all these nations do this. China has an almost exclusive ecosystem, yet somehow when the US does it it's racism? No. It isn't about race. It's about control. This apiea to China, Russia, and the US, and any other power in the future or past. Anyone who has the capability to gain control also has disposition to exploit their control. You don't gain control without that.

        Except it isn't actually the same. Bytedance can give the US government all the control literally everything they asked for and it hasn't been enough, because ultimately that is not what it's about.
