No country has a right to do business anywhere and everywhere. I feel like people are really grasping at straws to squeeze this argument under some kind of "freedom of speech" or "freedom of action" umbrella, but those concepts have only ever applied to humans, not nations.
- aprilthird2021 2y agoI actually am fine with banning all Chinese businesses. Our ruling classes would dislike that. They ONLY want to ban Chinese businesses when they fear they might not have sole and total control over what Americans see and what "influences" them, and I hate that. It's that authoritarian impulse in rulers to keep people like docile sheep they can extract money out of and silence, that I hate.
