Being negative about Xi has typically much worse in consequence and closer cooperation with China might make it more likely in practice. I'm not saying countries should not cooperate with China, just that your argument is not that great.
- Insanity 9mo agoI think you misunderstood my earlier point. I mean for most EU or Canadian citizens, the odds of being negative about Xi having actual impact are near 0 (not many travel to China), whilst many do travel to the US.. and rely on US tech.
- azan_ 9mo agoNo, you've misunderstood my point. Note that I wrote "closer cooperation with China might make it more likely in practice" - my point is that closer relations with China will increase how many people travel there increasing odds of being negative about Xi having actual impact.
