> He cited cases in which people linked to Chinese companies out in rural America had been digging up genetically modified seeds which would have cost them billions of dollars and nearly a decade to develop themselves
Is this really the kind of thing we should be upset about? Heaven forbid other countries feed their populace without paying a license fee to Monsanto/Bayer. GMO agri corps shouldn't be doing that at home either!

Your paradigm is boxing you in. Nobody really cares about Monsantos losing custody of something smaller than a pea. Although as a nation of laws we should support the law, even if the one being harmed is personally distasteful. The crisis being demonstrated with that example isn't a mega-corp losing patent royalties, but it is showing the outrageous extremes the Chinese will ascend to in their pursuit of power.
The sheer scale of effort needed to bring a man from Beijing to steal planted seeds in the Midwest is gargantuan and specific, and it's a part of a massively coordinated effort. It's hard to comprehend the scale. The amount of effort the US is exerting to save Ukraine is probably smaller than the effort expended by Beijing to steal American secrets.

Foolish thinking like this is the reason we're in this mess
this is some 2022 colonialist bullshit like how they cried “threat” when china developed 5G before the US/EU
In most 4x games with technology mechanics, stealing technologies is among the most egregious diplomatic offenses, often worse than taking large cities or territories.
The US ... doesn't care because the ultra rich made money.
