What are we, the protection racket? Defend the nerd from the bully and then demand the lunch money for ourselves? FFS, can nobody be good for the sake of what’s right and won’t without expectation of a return?

America never did it because it was right. That’s a happy side effect. It did it as its in its own interest. Just like with israel, which now leads to Palestinian genocide. They aren’t moral decisions being made.

So Trump is making it seem like it will save the USA money but it won’t. It will cost much more in the long run. I wodner how many Chinese votes will be won and lost, or other Asian votes, knowing it risks destabilizing the region.

Let Taiwan and their super fucking important chip factories fall into adversary hands and see how that works out.

Yeah. They make a huge percentage of the world’s high-end chips. A military takeover would leave us shoveling piles of money at China or, more likely, the fabs would be destroyed and suddenly every computer or product that uses a computer to create it (read: all of them) shoots up in price for the next decade.

And that is just the immediate effects. The downstream effects of the US no longer providing security would likely lead to swift nuclear proliferation as that is the only way such a small country can hope to protect itself if no larger country is willing to stick their neck out for them.

It will work out just fine, having 1 single country provide the world with everything. What could possibly go wrong?

There are companies and governments trying to put this right at the moment, but chip manufacturing capacity is very slow to set up. It requires very expensive, specialized and uncommon equipment and highly qualified specialist staff who are not easy to find or quick to train.

Next you’ll be wondering where all the American soft power went, except I bet you're too dumb to know what soft power is
