Looks like the Chinese "investor" is the Communist Party. The actions Reddit is taking are pretty much how they take down all the companies and citizens they target.
I swear tankies and liberals are basically the same. Tankies blame the CIA for every single bad thing that has ever happened while liberals blame the CCP and the Russian government. SOMETIMES BUSINESS PEOPLE ARE JUST GREEDY AND SOMETIMES AMERICANS ARE JUST SHITTY, there doesn't need to be a secret cabal behind everything
while i'll wait for the source i asked for and gladly correct this if i'm presuming incorrectly, i'd bet the odds are high that "CCP" is just being used as a shorthand/stand-in for a company like TenCent, because that happens a lot in discussions about China and it's really goofy.
In the interest of fairness, isn't the difference between TenCent and the Chinese government basically just paperwork? I've always heard (anecdotally) that they work extremely close with the CCP.
