>>The only thing that puzzles me is why Big Tech (just the guyz, really, such as the owners/founders of FB, Twitter, etc.) is so supportive of China. None of these companies would have had a chance under the Chinese system, and I don’t understand why these creative, energetic people (whether you like them or not) have voluntarily enslaved themselves to a backwards, derivative, and stifling culture and political system.<<
I would look for whether these oligarchs ever visit China. If so, I would suspect an Epstein arrangement.

I guess it all goes back to the bucks. I’m sure they’re all profiting richly off of their connections

They'll have plenty of money to buy their own rope.

And yet, for some unknown reason, conservatives still are on Twitter giving it legitimacy.

Twitter is a new followers growth model. They need people to join and to follow other people to make them feel good. If people get followers they use Twitter more. China has 1.6 billion potential followers. Of course they don’t want the CCP mad at them.

True. But it’s not going to end well. These “smartest people in the room” are shortsighted and way too trusting of the Chinese, who can and will turn off the tap once they’ve gotten what they need from these fools.

That’s my thought too. They’ve sold their souls, such as they were, and the Chinese will get rid of these people whenever they’re no longer needed. Not necessarily by killing them, but just by stealing all their tech and ideas and then saying thank you, bye-bye.

I think some of them have been there….virtually all of the devices the tech companies sell are made in China.

I’m not sure they’re going to need an Epstein moment. The Chinese built these people up and they can take them down, mostly by stealing every idea they have.
