This ignores the massive levels of subsidies that the Chinese govt provides to their companies.

Bud, if you think only China is playing the subsidy game, you are sadly mistaken: https://www.forbes.com/sites/taxnotes/2020/11/20/boeings-tax...

Bud, please understand that this is a spectrum and not a binary situation.

Also, Chinese restrictions on companies restrictions on foreign companies pale in comparison to the freedom they enjoy in the US.

Google, Facebook and Twitter are all banned in mainland China.

Meanwhile, TikTok and the likes are freely allowed to shape our minds.

Blocking foreign companies is a form of massive subsidy.
