I care mostly about myself. Just like you care mostly about yourself. You certainly don’t use the same criteria against any other country.
Yes, you are. Both of those countries have large intelligence programs, yes. So does the CCP. And, as I mentioned elsewhere, they don’t have to even pretend to follow the law. China is a massive surveillance state.
USA is much worse, much more pervasive, much more massive.
But sure mate, China fine, US big bad scary. Got it.
China bad, USA is worse.
The CCP has no laws it needs to follow.
Same goes for the USA.
It needs reasons to get information on you, and the information it can get is limited.
Nope. It gathers mass information all the time. This conversation is being recorded by the USA because all traffic on the internet is being recorded by them. They didn’t need to ask anybody.
I am, I’m just not a paranoid conspiracy nut.
You are more paranoid than me but also racist from the looks of it.
I care mostly about myself. Just like you care mostly about yourself. You certainly don’t use the same criteria against any other country.
I have empathy for many people. I care about all lives. I never once said I hold this view exclusively about China. We were talking about Chinese cars, so I said I don’t trust them.
USA is much worse, much more pervasive, much more massive.
Disagree. You should spend time in Asia and talk to the people there, follow the news, etc. You might learn something.
China bad, USA is worse.
Ok, so how does that invalidate me not wanting a Chinese car or a Chinese cellphone exactly? Since that’s how this started…
Same goes for the USA.
No, this is wrong. The government can do a lot, yes, but it is not a dictatorship.

It really isn’t, but whatever.
You are more paranoid than me but also racist from the looks of it.
Do you? Even about Palestinians and Yemeni and Saudi Arabians?
Yes, of course. Why do you keep bringing them up? What do they have to do with Chinese cars? I genuinely don’t understand why you are on about this.
Disagree all you want. The fact that NSA has software in all routers and hard drive firmware and sim cards has been widely reported.
No, it is reported they put backdoors in US-made routers. Your claims of “all” are nonsense.
But even if we agree on this fact, I am less concerned about it. Why? Because I can badmouth the US government and have no fear of being detained if I travel there. The same cannot be said about China, as another poster has already pointed out.

How, exactly, am I racist?
