It doesn't mean much more than that some American CEO is a member of the (R) or (D) party. The CCP has 90 million members, it's not some hugely exclusionary club, though relatively speaking a bit more exclusionary than the (R) and (D) party in the US with respectively 33M and 45M members.

As mentioned in the article, the CEOs of the other tech giants Tencent and Baidu are not members. It's simply not a huge deal one way or the other.

Democrats and Republicans can't limit their membership at all.

Not only that, but there isn't even a singular party of democrats or repulicans. Every state has its own party for each.

People can decide which party they are in and the party itself has no say in the matter.
