The US is a morally and ethically bankrupt country, that's why something like this happens. Not the first time either[1].

Time for a massive boycott to all US-American products? Or what else will stop the thugs?
Being comfortable with China playing America's role.
For a change, yes
China will be worse. Either Europe steps up or we just try living life without a hegemon.
Why do I have to keep believing China will be worse?

It's not china mass survelling the planet, the US is. It's not china starting wars, kidnapping foreign leaders, it's the US.

It's not china threatening their allies, not even going short of mentioning annexations, the US is.

TikTok might be the most successful global surveillance tool ever...
China does these things to their own citizens, so really only better for those out of range.
Nobody will stop USA as long as they fight evil regimes.
> as they fight *weak* evil regimes

Fixed. US only has chutzpah to fight someone who can’t meaningfully fight back. If US was truly fighting evil regimes, it would go for Russia, China, NK and bunch of other autocrats.

Haha. US ain’t got the balls to fight NK. They got nukes and US presidents take pictures with their supreme leader.

Iran knows what’s on the other side once they have nukes. No one touches them.

> Nobody will stop USA as long as they fight evil regimes.

At what point will the USA fight the evil genociding Israeli state?
