    True but also true: you are comparing multinational corporations to the Chinese government, who is currently waging cold war against Western states. That’s the quiet part they’re taking care not to say loud, hence posturing.

        I shouldn’t defend myself from China because the USA built bases, is that your argument?

          I think it pretty clear they’re just responding to this part of your comment and arguing the opposite. (Which is correct.)

          …the Chinese government, who is currently waging cold war against Western states.

          Fallacist’s Fallacy. Or, how about actually have a response rather than just trying to flag the play and strut around like you won.
