From one of this own comments.

Islamophobic and Sinophobic bigot does bigoted things.

Translation: “You piece of shit! Idiot! Please delete your account.”

Now as to this one in particular, it seems like it can be chalked up as either he doesn’t read beyond headlines or he’s just plain incompetent.

This guy is a China shill. Review his post and comment history. He’s spamming all the news communities with stuff like this.

This is the second post I’m seeing from this guy on world news. Isn’t there any way we could weed stuff like this out - shills and/or corporate bots?

Seems a stretch of rico definition but ok…. I could see ip theft being more accurate but China has proven repeatedly that it won’t do anything about that practice

How so? It seems to fit perfectly? And it notes that they are using RICO specifically because of the company's "byzantine" structure--it gives them more flexibility.

Splitting your assets into multiple subsidiary companies to limit liability isn’t organized crime, it’s standard corporate operations, everyone does it.
