How is this a shame for AMD or Qualcomm, who aren't part of this comparison at all?

> Windows running in VM on M2 is faster than native Windows on x86.

Which x86? 12th gen Intel? 11th gen Intel? Ryzen 6000? These are all wildly different processors. This comment is absurd. It's also "Windows ARM version running in a VM on M2", not x86 windows which is the only thing you'd care about running in VM on MacOS if you were actually going to do this for some reason.

It's not a coherent comment - the part about "shame" is meant to incur an emotional response and bypass logical reasoning systems of the human mind.
