Good on him for sticking to his ideals. I don’t always see eye to eye with Stewart, but he’s smart, principled, and articulate. Very interesting to hear how Apple is so married to China and AI. I wonder how much we don’t hear because companies and media are afraid of angering the CCP. Thankfully Biden is continuing Trump’s policies of decoupling from China. We can’t do business with genocidal dictatorships and expect to walk away unscathed.

Yeah, we learned not to do business with genocidal dictatorships after ww2... Except all those dictatorships that we funded to kill leftists.

But then we learned not to do business with genocidal dictatorships after the cold war... Except all those dictatorships that we funded to buy oil.

But this time I'm sure we definitely learned not to do business with genocidal dictatorships even when they align with our policy goals.

Let’s take the win. This time we heed history.
