Two evils just means there are two evils. We don't have to value one more than the other.
Wrongs don't negate each other.

Yes we do. We should evaluate threats and choose our allies carefully.
Correct, but people are not wrong in being more concerned about the evil biting than the one keeping it chill.
Sadly, we live in a decidedly imperfect world. I don't think there is a single completely good person on the planet, let alone a country.
Nobody said they negate each other. The comment being discussed is fearmongering about China and is very relaxed about the USA. All we're saying is you should be either afraid of both or relaxed about both. China is not worse than the US.
It is perfectly fine to say that a person who killed one person is bad but not as bad as the one who killed thousands.
I eagerly await for the USA citizens to downvote this in about 5 hours.
If you have the choice between AI models created by one evil or the other, it does feel relevant which you consider to be the lesser evil
