Imperial America only gets worse the more fascist it becomes. I wonder how many people cheering on American support for Taiwanese semiconductor industry realize it's nothing more than imperialism. They don't care about Taiwan. That's the state department propaganda they're trained to parrot. Imperial America wants that chip technology. Soon as they can steal that chip tech by bringing production to America then Taiwan is fucked.

I suspect the amount fucks anyone gives about Taiwan is worse than the electoral support for the current regime. Definitely not the 1/3rd who voted for it. 1/3rd non-voters don't give a fuck on account of their ignorance to everything. A good portion of Democrat voters don't care given that even Dems have been pushing for appropriating TSMCs manufacturing secrets.
