And US subsides are of course totally okay and not unfair at all? The US does the same thing while it cries and points fingers. The same in the EU.

Non-discriminatory subsidies are, in fact, ok.
Purchase discounts for EVs in the US, for instance, didn't discriminate based on manufacturer. You could buy a foreign made EV and you still get the discount.
Discriminatory subsidies, like for instance, funneling billions of dollars per year into Chinese-owned manufacturers of EVs, parts and even even shippers, is not ok.
The US has, of course, been accused of discriminatory subsidies as well and countries have retaliated, correctly, with increased tariffs to offset the unfair advantage.
