There's nothing lazier than a whataboutism claim. If we're okay with Chinese made phones and other electronics, then let's give their cheap EVs a chance instead of worrying about a plethora of other hallucinated *isms. Anyways, if the Chinese want to hurt "US" they have plenty of other ways to go about it.

China is still banning Teslas from driving near government buildings and leaders' motorcades.

You're right, I guess it is only just slightly more lazy than writing the whataboutism.

Another what aboutism...

Why should those other national governments move away from Microsoft, the U.S. has other ways to hurt those countries.
