Ah yes, a tale as old as time: the West demonstrates leadership by actually innovating, then the CCP responds by flooding the market with subsidized cheap, crappy copies until they are the only ones left. While nobody in their right minds should tolerate this absurd demand, the sad reality is that the spineless EU will likely roll over soon and become lapdogs to the imperial Chinese.

It's not like what some other do isn't subsidized either:

It's better off in our hands. The Chicoms or Russians could snatch it from those silly froufrou Danes in 48 hours if they wanted.

Awareness isn't your strongest feat, is it? Just "Orange Man Bad!" 24/7.
