The most annoying thing over the next few years is going to be listening to:
“What happened to my helthcare?” "You voted for Trump who promised to take it away. " “But I didn’t think it would effect me!”
“Why are the prices of groceries so high?” “You voted for Trump who promised to deport all the illegal farm workers who picked your food for low wages.” “But I didn’t think it would effect me!”
“Why did my daughter/wife/girlfriend/mother die in a hospital parking lot?” “You voted for Trump who promised to make life saving healthcare for women illegal nation wide.” “But I didn’t think it would effect me!”
“What happened to the minimum wage?” “You voted for Trump who promised to lower it.” “But I didn’t think it would effect me!”
“What happened to the Palestinians?” “You voted for Trump/voted for a third party candidate which allowed Trump to rise to power then he gave Netanyahu the go ahead to wipe them out.” “But I didn’t think that would happen to my family!”
Suck it up. This is your bed. You shat it in. Now lie there and be quiet. We’re tired of your bullshit.
I wonder if it’s the US or Taiwan that donates the thermite grenades on the machines? If it’s the US Trump might just order them not to donate them as a gift to Xi.
From what I’ve read, TSMC themselves take a hardline anti-China stance. If Chinese jackboots set foot in Taiwan, they’ll brick all of their foundries, or at least they say they will. Whether they actually will when push comes to shove is the bigger question
I don’t think it’s an issue of bricking them. I think they thermite grenade them. It’s the optical technology that sets the ASML machines apart. They have to destroy the machines.
Uh, no it isn’t. Bricking would be to render them inoperable. The machines need to be completely destroyed to keep the physical components of the optical path out of the hands of the Chinese. Thermite grenades on the optics and C4 to make sure
Honestly, I think it’ll be worth drilling the fact that it’s the Republican Party, not just Trump. Otherwise, folks deep in the cult will just use the current figurehead as a scapegoat for everything wrong with the party without acknowledging that the party itself works against them.
They probably will, anyway, but it’s worth a shot.
This was a well executed decades long plan by the christofascists to turn the United States into a christofascist theocratic autocracy using the Republican party at a framework and vehicle and leveraging the fear, hatred, and ignorance of the heartland to do it. The only way to come back from this is to abandon any attempts to court the right and center and to design and execute a plan to take the country back from the fascists and oligarchs, to fix the courts, to fix the elections, to fix public educating and healthcare, to redistribute wealth, and to give the country back to the people, not just the rich, white, Christian, male people.
The frustrating thing is that the red center of the country just voted itself into slavery. Trump has said that he’s going to reduce the minimum wage. Project 2025 will destroy the education department, the ACA will be dismantled, social security will be eliminated, workers rights are going away. You will work for slave wages with no protections, no benefits, and no pension then you will fuck off and die when they’ve used you up.
Congratulations! Your fear, hated, and hunger for vengeance on those you resent was used to manipulate you into the biggest self-own in human history.

“Why did graphics cards quadruple in price?”
“You voted for Trump, who supported China steamrolling Taiwan, and now all of TSMCs foundries are bricked.”

I’m praying we (nl) put our own in as backup before shipping them out
I’m a shareholder. I hope so, too.

That’s semantics

I’m pretty sure thermite will render them inoperable; it tends to render most things inoperable
