The US is either really fcuking dumb, or they are trying to create China as a enemy by building them up. They tried this shit in the 1930s-1950s with Chinese scientists and ended up driving out the COFOUNDER of JPL, a loyal US scientist, and he became the father of the Chinese Rocket Program.

They are doing it again.

I really hope US loses lots of top scientists to China as a result.

They certainly are losing them to China. These people making these policies like the China Initiative are just sofa king dumb and racist, they literally welcomed Nazis and pushed out loyal US scientists of Chinese ethnicity. It will be their undoing.
