This is pure bullshit. The idea that Chinese companies and the government are somehow fused has no basis in reality. But it's remarkable to watch people push this sort of conspiracy theory. The exact same people will, when the government cracks down on a company like Tencent, go on to claim that companies are victims of the government.

This rebuttal isn't rooted in reality. China's willingness to use state resources to gain competitive advantages for its corporations is proven without a shadow of a doubt.
