You don’t think tit for tat is a good strategy in this situation?
- sacnoradhq 4y ago"An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind." And competitive brinksmanship, xenophobia, and walled isolation aren't useful unless you're running DPRK.
- edmundsauto 4y agoI'm sure it's fueled by xenophobia, but if we think of China / US as competing technology firms, the decision makes even more sense. What tech firm would want a one-sided relationship where their employees share information using a competitors platform, when you have no guarantee of privacy? I don't think the walled isolation claim sticks - the US would not be seeking to isolate itself. Instead, it would be requiring both countries to operate on the same playing field. Why would anyone want to play a game when the other side won't agree to the same rules?
