You seem to be under some misconception regarding who actually writes our laws. Hint: they’re called lobbyists to get people to ignore the rampant bribery.
That is some very black or white, us or them, red team vs blue team thinking. It’s very interesting that you immediately jump to that conclusion when I am not even from the US at all. The answer to your question is absolutely not, and the fact that it’s a “world economy” doesn’t and shouldn’t mean any people are obligated to do business with and accept the controlling interest of literal monsters fueled by oil and oil money. Ethics must also be allowed to control the economy, not just money. The world’s financial systems have consequences beyond just the economy.
I’d think we’d be far more concerned about critical resource companies before we got to worrying about gaming companies, but we can’t even do that so I’m not surprised.
How is this even legal?

Bribery? They are buying a company. That’s it. There isn’t anything special about it. It’s like any other company out there.
And I was talking about the so-called legality of the situation. So, pretty clearly not referring to the headline…
Again, no legal issues.
How about if you can’t follow a conversation, maybe stay out of it? Like, for real, I didn’t know that else to tell you.
What exactly about it is it you feel should be illegal?
Foreign country buying a US corporation. Seems like their investment should be capped at like 15%
US companies by foreign companies all the time, look at the food and drink corporations.
This is not a new or strange thing
It’s definitely not new, but it’s time to start thinking about how strange it is, and start pulling these assholes off their money-merry-go-round.
US Steel is now a Japanese company
It’s a world economy. What are you, some sort of maga twit America first and only bullshit?

“Stop being such a fascist and let us do business with these fucking murderers”
