That’s fine. I have more trust in CCP than United States, as I am living in North America.
USA is not all of North America so I'm not sure what this even means. Where you live on the continent is only relevant to the conversation if you're in the US. I don't care if you live in Canada or Mexico because I'm not a citizen in those countries nor do I follow their international relations all that closely. In any case, while the current US government is certainly not without its flaws, at least they don't commit evil atrocities against their own people like the CCP does. We don't imprison anyone for speaking out against those in power or put entire minority groups in hard labor camps against their will, and we enjoy a liberal democracy that allows for duly elected leaders rather than dictators for life.
If you count China as adversary, then that’s also fine. So don’t be surprised that China treat US as adversary. Overall, it is not China started the conflict, it is preciously the United State with Trump Administration.
Of course it's not surprising that they see us as their adversary. They should absolutely see us that way given we are easily the biggest threat to their existence, bigger than probably the next 10 most powerful countries combined. Also you are clearly ignorant of the history of China and America's relationship in recent decades. Trump is just one of many national leaders who have affected that geopolitical balance, for better or worse. You should be more concerned about how some of the other past presidents have handled China while they were in office such as Nixon, Reagan, and Obama. Any of those guys were significantly more influential on US-Chinese relations than Trump ever was.
And don't be ridiculous, China absolutely started the recent tensions or at the very least has been making it worse if for no other reason than because of how they bully and intimidate Taiwan, with whom we share many common ideals including one very important value in particular that I mentioned above which is liberal democracy and human rights. Not to mention the major role Taiwan plays in the global economy because of their robust manufacturing abilities when it comes to supplying most of the world's computer chips. While I can honestly say that I really don't think our government wants to directly engage in an all-out war with China, what I
can assure you with the utmost certainty beyond any doubt is that no matter who is in charge of running the United States at the time, if China invades Taiwan or coerces them in any way then the US will come down hard on them like a hammer. Not just the US either, probably most other NATO countries as well which is basically all western European militaries combined plus Canada, India, etc. That's a war the Chinese can't afford to fight; the West would pulverize them and turn the country into an unrecognizable wasteland.
If you think banning TikTok is justifiable, then China banning US social media is also justified. Then don’t criticize China’s censorship. If you think TikTok is national security risk, then Facebook, WhatsApp Instagram are all national security risk to China.
You seem to enjoy making up things I never claimed. I don't think TikTok should be banned. That happens to be the official position of my country's government but it is not
my position. All I said was that I personally have no interest in handing over my data to the CCP and that I don't understand why so many of my fellow Americans, including many of my own family and friends, fail to see how deeply problematic that is.
If you think China is evil, then United State is just as evil
LOL
