The sickening satanic fedgov is flipping out over Chinese cars taking over the planet, which is something that is bound to happen over the next decade.
All Western countries are putting huge tariffs on Chinese vehicles, claiming it is part of a war strategy. Now, apparently, they are trying to ban Chinese vehicles outright by banning parts.
The US is planning to ban certain hardware and software made in China and Russia from cars, trucks and buses in the US due to security risks.
Officials said they were worried that the technology in question, used for autonomous driving and to connect cars to other networks, could allow enemies to “remotely manipulate cars on American roads”.
There is currently minimal use of Chinese or Russia-made software in American cars.
But Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said the plans were “targeted, proactive” steps to protect the US.
It sounds more like they’re trying to preemptively ban imports of Chinese cars – which naturally contain Chinese electronics – than to ban Chinese parts in American cars.
They are just throwing Russia in there to make it seem like a war-related effort.
“Cars today have cameras, microphones, GPS tracking, and other technologies connected to the internet,” she said in a statement.
“It doesn’t take much imagination to understand how a foreign adversary with access to this information could pose a serious risk to both our national security and the privacy of US citizens.”
Chinese officials said the US was broadening “the concept of national security” to unfairly target Chinese firms.
“China opposes the US’s broadening of the concept of national security and the discriminatory actions taken against Chinese companies and products,” said Lin Jian, spokesman for China’s Foreign Ministry, in a statement.
“We urge the US side to respect market principles and provide an open, fair, transparent, and non-discriminatory business environment for Chinese enterprises.”
Yeah, the US claimed that globalism was their first principle, that they wanted a global marketplace for goods. Then all of a sudden they started losing badly, and began crying about their own rules.
The proposal, which will now enter a comment period, is the latest from the White House aiming to limit China’s presence in the car manufacturing supply chain.
The White House has also raised tariffs on electric cars, batteries for electric vehicle and a range of other items.It has separately banned the import of Chinese-made cargo cranes, warning of cyber-security risk.
The US launched an investigation in February examining the cyber risks from so-called connected cars.
The prohibitions on software would go into effect with model year 2027, while the hardware rules would be effective three years later, giving the industry more time to re-work their supply chains.
The US is terrified of Chinese electric cars.
Here’s a video with that title.
They’re terrified because Chinese electric cars are better and cheaper, and they understand that China is not interested in war, and wants to instead dominate the world through superior products.
The US has given up on superior products. They’re not even trying to make good products anymore. They are focused entirely on war, and they are trying to figure out a way to use war to destroy China, while China just keeps pumping out good products.
The US of the 1950s could easily compete with China on merit, but the current year US has no such ability. The US of 2024, a Jewish state, can do nothing but deliver condescending lectures to people who are much more moral and competent than they are.
The question is: can the US do some kind of military victory over the Chinese?
The answer is: “pretty much, no.”
