What do you suggest? Allow a foreign nation to destroy you from within?

Actual regulations on data privacy and algorithmic manipulation. It’s not that complicated. The EU figured it out. Fuck me, my own country, Brazil, a third world hellhole, figured it out. We have very strict rules on data protection.

Ofc, this would never happen because 1. Big corpos own the US government and actual regulation on privacy would hurt THEM, and 2. The US Government actually WANTS algorithmic manipulation to happen, except they want THEIR algorithmic manipulation and not anyone else’s.

They’re suspiciously selective about what foreign interference they’re ok with.

The US is doing it just fine on our own.

Hell, an election here just voted in fascism like its the 1920s again.

Actually fight against that rather than pretending too, Israel and Russia have destroyed the US from within far more than China… Maybe tackle the active objective threats rather than potential ones

Russia is a menace to US’s peasantry, as they might drag the US to a(nother) proxy war.

Whereas China is a menace to the US’s aristocracy, in the sense that China is currently richer than the US of A, and despite thousands of articles about how “CHINA’S ECONOMY WILL COLLAPSE TOMORROW!” for the past 15 years, it has yet to happen.

Ergo, the US government won’t do shit about Russia, but will bend over backwards for anything related to China.
