I think it’s not a facebook ban per se but more like set of regulations (like no nsfw content and so on) that you need to meet to operate a business in the country. Facebook couldn’t care to meet those rules so they aren’t allowed to operate. Apple, Tesla and thousands other american businesses can still operate.

I have noticed you decided to use several German words in your reply, trying not to be petty but at least you should attempt to write them correctly. It’s either Wunderkind (German word for child prodigy) or english translation: wonder kid.

Good point, we are seeing a lot of layoffs in bay area amand other HCoL locations in the US but at the same time hiring is still going strong in Eastern Europe and India. Typical outsourcing destinations where you can get a developer for fraction of the price. We can debate about quality but for sure countries like Poland have lots of developers that are on a par with best ones in Bay area

Well congress approved 500 million for negative coverage of China. So yes, US websites are even paid for shaming and criticizing China (often based on false information) and our asian enemies (like Japan in the 80s with all the Japan bashing)

I don’t think it’s the issue. Why the same still happens in countries where women are treated much better (having more privileges than men) like Poland where women don’t need to serve in military and retire 5 years early while having 10 year longer average lifespan?
Birthrate in Poland is still declining

Unfortunately its not that uncommon, we did that too in Vietnam where 2 million civillians died.
Our government set up agenda to „bomb the back to stone age”.
We dropped 3 times more bombs than were dropped during whole ww2.
Its unimaginable how brutal that war was, no wonder why there was so much opposition back then, sadly nobody was tried for war crimes ugh.

100% agree. Even tough i work at F500 company our team acts like a startup. With server less we don’t need to hire expensive devops and shell out millions for expensive k8s clusters. I am pretty sure it’s the future for most of us.

If you are really that concerned about “national security” you can just start employing American nationals only. If that is not enough and anyone looking a bit Asian can look suspicious to you then start employing only white christian americans.
This what overt nationalism and fear of losing supremacy can lead to.
But we know that this didn’t work before so that’s why America has become the place where talents from all over the world come. If we go back to how it was in 1920s then why shouldn’t go back even further and start burning witches again?

Exactly, the biggest “bad guys” nations are now the core west nations: Germany, Japan, Italy. While their victims China, Russia and others are villified.
It’s about manufacturing consent and dehumanizing others so that the moronic public is more in favor of killing innocent civilians.

Also about the US minority ( I wasn’t writing about that in my earlier comment but since you brought that up)

So stop denying that systemic racism, racial profiling of minorities and targeted police brutality is not happening in the US. Did you vote for Trump? Because that would explain why you think those things don’t exist.

Do you actually believe there is some sort of repression in HK? Black people are more repressed in the US than anyone in HK… I just visited HK on a business trip (had to quarantine) and there were no signs of oppression or any sort of police brutality at all.

For one, chinese made Teslas are superior in quality to American ones. So looks like you are right, not every chinese product should be seen as inferior to japanese or even American.
