Meta is different because of the US fails as a state, they lose. China doesn't.

Meta might still be a shitty company, but their incentives are not to gather intelligence against US citizens that could be used to conduct cyber attacks or plan for military operations.

What does Meta lose if the US fails as a state? I'm sure there are some downsides but isn't it a global company anyway?

I presume the Neo-Confederate states of America or whatever will still be happy to do business - probably with fewer regulations even.

It always is. And I'm rather on the side of the west than the side of the CCP.

As a European I am ... not sure I see the truth in that argument. Not anyone who speaks some form of English is automatically western, mind.
