Since when is Linde a US company? The name alone should ring you a bell about where they come from.This is simple. 20%-ish of Chinese workers are subsidence farmers as opposed to ~0% of the U.S. population: then if you look at US firms - there simply are no Chinese equivalents of the size and scope of U.S. firms like Microsoft, Oracle, Linde, Air Products and Chemicals, ThermoFisher Intel, Pfizer, Nvidia, AMD, Boeing, etc and countless other innovative manufacturers and service firms.
Other people already debunked this. For whatever reason HiSilicon is not displayed in top 10 chip companies statistics anymore. Which does not mean they are not in the top 10.China simply lacks the multiplicity of large technologically complex firms that the U.S. contains in droves - that drives the technological frontier more than anything else and can easily explain the productivity differential.
Even with the recent Boeing and Intel news - they clear far more in revenue and volume in a quarter than COMAC and a random set of Chinese logic IC manufacturers have cleared in the past decade combined
China doesn't have to do anything as these sanctions are shooting the US in the foot.If there was, we would’ve seen it by now since with the 301 tariffs, the Huawei export ban, the October 7 export ban, the Pelosi trip to Taiwan, the CFIUS rollout, the TikTok ban, the CCP travel/visa restrictions, the South China Sea/Philippines stuff, the journalist kicking out, the Taiwan Travel Act, US army members in Taiwan, etc
among others were all the 246,495th time the US apparently crossed China’s red line only for China to do…nothing.

"End Chinese Dominance of Electric Vehicles in America act"All of these bills are basically the desperate last cries of a dying empire trying to implement protectionism
Nothing about trying to fix their own problems or improving their competitiveness
It's honestly pathetic to watch lol
I wonder what opinion China at large would have towards a law banning the glorification of nazi and other war crime aggressor nation flags/symbols?

On one hand, its benefits are obvious in conditioning the population and tourists away from nazist behavior. On the other hand, it would be more "nannying" of the population like they do in the west, and it can have undesirable outcomes like you see in Germany where they can't even have a video game or movie with swastikas in it.
In the current legal situation, someone has the freedom of speech to show a fascist symbol, but they are not immune to the consequences of doing so, and in the courts, if he is beaten up by bystanders, the nazi will be charged with picking quarrels for instigating the fight.
This is also a possibility.
Yes I'm aware of that. But afaik if a person wears a nazi symbol and gets into a quarrel, they will be the ones considered guilty for instigating it, which acts as a very soft ban.China doesn’t enforce banning of IJN symbols, which is enforced by the general population. There is no enforcement on Swaztikas which is something both sides of the straits are unfortunately guilty of.
