As if any of the other social media networks aren't doing the same shit. I'd rather have China spy on me than an American company. They can't use my data to fuck me over.
I mean, yeah they can. Anyone with data on you could fuck you over. In fact, the more data, the easier to fuck you over.
China cannot put me in jail. The US can.
Maybe I should have worded it differently. They're far less likely to fuck me over. I have nothing the Chinese government wants.
Nah they want your money and attention same as the Americans
I will say that being from Latin america I am fundamentally less scared of China than I am scared of the US. The US took my country's future from us twice, both times in living memory, and one I was already around for.
While the worst thing China has done here is uhhh
Buy land to open a factory in our sovereign soil and illegally mistreat workers in that factory.
Really not anywhere near the same level as backing two far right coups.
