At the request of the Chinese government, Apple and Google have pulled apps that help Hong Kong protesters. I guess they join the list of companies like the NBA and Blizzard that don't give a shit about freedom. Thoughts?
They want to give a shit, but ultimately they are businesses.
So proud of them. Only be letting the CCP into our hearts and minds can we achieve economic growth
Businessmen are pussies
No, they’re psychopaths who have no regard for any fellow human beings. They are monetarily driven and right now obeying China == money. Maybe we should stop hiring psychopaths as CEOs.
GL with that.
These companies aren’t US companies anymore. They’re global companies who are directly influenced by Chinese money. Also interesting that all of these companies are also heavily involved in social justice. Seems like China wants to make Americans think the US is unfair and racist so we don’t talk about the fascist and racist CCP.
I really hope no one is dumb enough to believe the US is more unfair than the CCP
So they don’t have the freedom to pull?
You fools. It’s not freedom they are claiming in hk, it’s chaos and violence! How could you be brainwashed so badly by your ‘freedom’ media? Have you been to hk? Have you talked to the real hk citizens that the large majority of them are actually against the so called pro hk protesters? Have you watched the original video showing violence by protesters, which was later edited by BBC so that you could only see the ‘freedom’ part. Stop the stupidity, this is enough. People, please open your eyes! 10 years ago I came from China to the States, thinking I would finally no longer be brainwashed by Chinese government and get the free air. Over the years I learned to always get two sides of story and think independently. But one thing really makes me sad is that I found many people here didn’t even realize that their mainstream media is just giving them what it wants people to believe. Lol, what a free people!
I'm sure there is violence on both sides. However, this doesn't change the facts that China is encroaching on the freedom of HK via political action.
Pbuj80 You are so wrong. The majority of HK people don’t support the government. A recent survey shows that the HK chief executive only get 22.3 points out of 100. https://www.hongkongfp.com/2019/10/09/disastrous-performance-carrie-lams-rating-plunges-lowest-among-hong-kong-chief-exec-yet/
