Reply to comment by Yumewomiteru in U.S. plans new limits on tech sent to Chinese firms by WallStreetDoesntBet

It would happen either way. China sanctions countries for far less, it's a foregone conclusion they wouldn't be sharing any technology that threatens their dominance. Doubly so if the US in this alternate reality was making noises to replace the CCP led world order, do you think that would not be met with a response?

Nice projection, had the US not try to actively stifle China's innovation there would be no reason for China to not work with the US. China is not an ideologist nation trying to export Communism to every country, that is the US with Capitalism.

Incorrect, China sanctioned Australia for merely mentioning that the origins of COVID should be investigated. Sanctioned Lithuania for allowing a Taiwanese embassy. What do you think they would do if a credible threat to their power base was identified?

Absolutely they have that right, as does the US.
