  The difference is that drunk driving objectively kills over ten thousand people every year. Meanwhile, the negative effects of 10 person company refusing to generate low-effort satire is less clear.

    Bending the knee to a brutal ethnic cleansing regime is never a positive, regardless of the size of the entity capitulating.

      At the end of the day, it's his company, so he can choose what services to supply. Freedom of speech means that he is allowed to have is own worldview that you disagree with, and you're free to use any other AI tools to make as much satire as you wish. If you're worried about China, worry about our incompetent Congress who is more interested in collecting sound bites than actually learn enough about technology to write meaningful regulation that protects us from China's influence on corporations.

        Yes. No one doubts who's company it is. That does not make their actions free from criticism. They're free to do what they want, others are free to say what they want to say (well, except when using Midjourney), the company can listen or not, and people can use Midjourney or not. Saying "if you don't like it, shut up and find something else" doesn't seem particularly productive.
