You mean the government. The citizens of a country are not directly related to a government most despise.
Now pay your taxes…because they are used to fix roads that have still not been fixed and go to a broken and terrible education system.
No, America would kneel and the economy will die.
No. China owns most US debt. It’s kind of a mutually assured destruction thing at this point, only I think China would survive and we wouldn’t.

Two things.
First, this isn’t about the US telling them how to solve their problems. This is about us as consumers telling Blizzard that we don’t like them acting on behalf of an autocratic regime to curtail political speech.
The stance Blizzard has taken is not neutral. It is actively pro-China. And that is not okay. If Blizzard had taken a neutral stance, it would be more like the release of a statement saying that Blitzchung does not reflect the opinions or positions of the company, but instead they punished him.
It seems freedom and social justice only go so far as to not hurt there profits
So? We don’t have to pay them **** if we force them to kneel first.
LOL… ok, lemme know how that works out.
We can recover from lost money. We’re capitalist. They can’t.
My brain is melting what the hell I am reading here ?
We don’t have to honor our “debt” if we force them into backing down/societal collapse first.
And, even if we did, we could recover in a few years. Might be painful, but we’ve been through worse. Time to toughen up!
Freedom and social justice have nothing to do with profits.
Two are ideals; the other puts food on the table. No one seems to know how to put them all together.
In the 1980s, US businesses stayed out of South Africa out of opposition to Apartheid.
In 2019, Blizzard bends its knees to lustily affix its mouth parts to China’s large, swollen member. Like the scroteless beta cowards they are.

No, in the 80s you were told US businesses stayed out of South Africa. But truth? They didn’t.
Kind of like how no US businesses did business with the Na zis. They did.
The press lies.

Yep, that sure sounds like something Thomas Jefferson might have said once.
Blitzchung is a player he wasn’t a caster in this. The casters who interviewed him got fired, for doing their job and interviewing him and letting him say his piece. No one should be fired for just doing their job and interviewing someone and that person being interviewed decides to do something that doesn’t make their company('s investors) happy.

Have you read the Federalist Papers? Recommended reading.
China owns a very small portion of our debt, the pie charts you see where it is like 1/3 are foreign owned debt. Most of the US debt is held by private banks, particularly the Federal Reserve (which is not a federal institution despite the name, it’s as federal as FedEx).
Well, they are from Commie California, after all. That state has been the propaganda front of the Soviets from the 1920s to 1988, after all.
