You're right, all very good points that contrast my cynicism. I am even more worried that if an authoritarian government takes hold of power, corporations would go into survival mode. Look at AliBaba/Jack-Ma situation in extreme case, not sure if that's a fair example.

Look at how the same corporations are operating in China today, as the CCP runs an authoritarian and arguably fascist (in the original sense, regardless of the commie branding) dictatorship. Are any of them denouncing Chairman Xi or taking a stand against the CCP's brutal crackdowns and internment camps bordering on ethnic cleansing? How many of them would still put Taiwan on a map?

But I'm sure they have your best interests at heart.
