In the complicated relationship that is the DNC and the CCP, the frenemies that have, until recently, been more friend than enemy, the methods of shifting the balance of power to favor this or that side when it comes to the hardball negotiating can become ultimately sabotaging to the ability of two camps that, at least for now and the near-foreseeable future, kind of both need each other to make the others’ dreams come true.
The US Hoouuse, led by the Democrats, in the case, the direct party that finds itself in that frenemy space with the CCP, is seeking to perhaps either clip some of the wings of their CCP counterparts, or maybe only bluster just to show that, if they wanted, they could clip those wings. They are conducting investigations into the listing of some Chinese companies on their US exchanges, which follows the announcement by China that many American “data-driven” mega-corps might find themselves de-listed on their exchanges, or more, facing draconian regulations that mgiht all-but cut off that fat Chinese markets from the corporations in America that desperately need that Chinese revenue if they are to continue to use their platforms to adviance ideology and not serve diverse pluralistic cultures and beliefs that we Americans represent.
If the corporations must actually produce products the plurality of Americans, across our diverse divides, likes, then they cannot continue to advance their current chosen vehicle of power to hopefully cut off competition from the poors for generations to come. But, to make that transition, to end the Bill of Rights constructs of the land and to replace it with a return to a sort of priest-king model of the Bronze Age, the mega-corps, the corpo-nations, maybe, nations into themselves, with budgets that many actual nation-states would love to have, must have a source for revenue
That’s where China comes in. But China herself still needs America, the America the DNC offers, and still needs the DNC to finish off the Bill of Rights constructs of the land, to end the more fundamental threat to their plans, not the people in this land, but the ideas in the Bill of Rights that many poors, including their own, would quickly recognize as giving them protection against the tyranny of the majority, be it the numerical or by measures of power.
My bet is China will have to walk back some of their restrictions newly placed on America to gain access to her fatty markets and the DNC will produce a little pony show to send a message to the Chinese that they have teeth as well, and also to keep people off their trail when it comes to their alliance with the CCP itself. How can you say they are allied with the CCP when they are investigating their companies that are listed on our exchanges?
Of course, at least in this article, I think I’ve already explained how I can say that. This type of working for and against other parties is not even new, nor unique to our current age, when we can just look at the relationship betwen Russia and Turkey to see how it is that two “allies” can also be enemies in other spheres. There are times when some Turkish military assets are being assisted by Russian military assets while in another part of the world Russian drones and Turkish drones are battling each other over another poor nation that finds itself being used as a war games proving ground for the world powers’ new toys, especially those drones.
And so it is with the DNC and the CCP, frenemies, and the DNC is sending a message to its frenemy, we can do this to your companies as well, so back off.

WASHINGTON, Aug 31 (Reuters) – A U.S. House of Representatives panel focused on protecting investors will hold a hearing on Sept. 22 about risks related to Chinese stock market listings on American exchanges.
The Subcommittee on Investor Protection, Entrepreneurship and Capital Markets hearing will take place among growing concerns about recent Chinese government actions that spurred sudden and unexpected swings in share prices of Chinese shares listed on U.S. exchanges.
Earlier this week, for example, China forbade under-18s from playing video games https://www.reuters.com/world/china/china-rolls-out-new-rules-minors-online-gaming-xinhua-2021-08-30 for more than three hours a week, hitting shares of some Chinese gaming companies traded in the United States.
