    That robot was stolen by Huawei, which is heavily subsidized by the CCP.

    But what I have said repeatedly, regardless of your presumptive tangents, is that state level actions make a state responsible, and in the examples I gave, a hostile state has ownership ties to companies stealing energy production data and military data.

      But you don’t consider T-Mobile, Apple, Intel, or Microsoft to be American state-sponsored companies despite their hundreds of billions in subsidies and tax incentives?

      Odd.

      The recent CHIPS act gave Intel what, like $20 billion in subsidies. Guess what? That’s what governments do to stimulate economic growth.

        Odder that you keep making false arguments and pretending they are my arguments.

          Huawei, which is heavily subsidized by the CCP.

          This statement is literally irrelevant because, guess what, every reasonable country subsidizes their domestic industries. I’ve proven that and you’re unwilling to accept that state-owned enterprises (which exist, by the way) are different from private companies.

          I’ll help you out: Intel is a private company. Amtrak is not. Alibaba is a private company, CRRC is not. Huawei is a private company, CNPC is not.

            I’m sure everyone is very proud of you for repeating things that I stated previously in this thread and pretending they are your argument.

            Wait right here, I’ll find someone who can slow clap for you(I feel like you’ll be able to understand the clap better that way).

              So you don’t have an argument? Great!

                An argument against you repeating what I said and agreeing with me?

                No, I stand by what I said and you parroted.

                  so you really do have no argument, huh? You claim that taking state subsidies makes a company state-sponsored.

                  I claim that that’s stupid, because it means that Intel and Microsoft would be considered state-sponsored enterprises.

                    I don’t have an argument against my own argument, no.

                    Regardless of what you claim I claim, you’ve already taken my side on all of this.

                    Thank you for your support!.
