    if we want to make sure that Western values are baked into the technologies of the future, we need to make sure we’re leading in those technologies.

    When they say "western values" what they actually mean is "bourgeois controlled capitalism". They want to bake liberalism into anything and everything they possibly can.

    Use non-western products wherever you possibly can.

        Lol I've been looking at buying a Huawei phone specifically because of all of this nonsense. They actually have some neat features too which are tempting.

          I have a samsung, I wouldn't go for huawei because while I love the idea of supporting them, eventually the chuds are going to ban them from being compatible with major networks here (if they haven't already). I'd rather just buy some Chinese art or something at that point

          I've been looking at huawei matebooks though

            Yeah I don't quite have that issue in my country (UK). I doubt they'll get banned here at a basic consumer product level.

            I mean phones these days last a couple years max so I guess it depends on how soon you think that'll happen lol

            Had a matebook x and it was very nice, though I had to repasted the cpu because they did an awful job of it

      When they say “western values” what they actually mean is “bourgeois controlled capitalism”.

      In fairness, sometimes they also mean white supremacy.
