>>106030327>hurr durr chynaodd, I didn't even mention china except for the alternatives to MS office (ever heard of WPS Office? it's owned by a chink compane). this is a thread about some shitty microsoft products
but now that you put it like that...
is having government or military orgs (like DARPA in the US) do research to help shady corporations (sometimes financed by the CIA through in-Q-tel) make shitloads of money while giving all your data to the NSA a good thing because trickle-down economics are real and great? or is it bad? what about killing journalists like michael hastings? or giving marijuana, cocaine and LSD to your own population, like the CIA did during their experiments and during the iran-contras issue?
do you think that governments don't exist to fund and protect these corporations at all costs? that capitalism would still exist if there was no government at all and that free markets are actually free?
how come all of that is bad when china does it? is it because they are communists? what are the actual differences between the US government and the current chinese government anyway?
