Why is "The Chinese Communist Part is more dangerous than Meta sharholders" such a hard thing to grasp?

Because Facebook destabilized our nation in 8 years far more than any claims of modern CCP wrongdoings to the US.

Now imagine what would have happened if Facebook was owned by Russia.

Why should it be? What does ByteDance want that isn't also valuable to Facebook?

Facebook is a company owned by public shareholders.

ByteDance is an arm of the Chinese Communist Party.

What facebook and ByteDance want at their core are very different things.

Is it more dangerous? Facebook has done more harm to the average American than the Chinese Communist Party has.

More dangerous to the US government? Yes, that's true.
