China’s move on Taiwan & America’s interest in this as well as Russia-Ukraine really has to do with the chips-semi-conductors made in Taiwan, the 90% of advanced chips that powers everything including

our military; The Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) is probably the most important company in the world, to the USA et al. & Biden et al.’s DEI (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion)
has now taken us to a place that we will likely regret. Why? Because DEI has killed the CHIPS Act. Our dependence on Taiwan’s semi-conductors remains a national security threat IMO. This opinion piece in The HILL by MATT COLE AND CHRIS NICHOLSON is worth the read for it helps you understand what is at stake.
The point is that we may go to WW III because of our dependence on chips, semi-conductors and America will seek to shed blood and treasure because of Taiwan’s chips made by TSMC and its monopoly on the 90% of advanced military grade chips that we desperately need. We will need to go to war to maintain access, the fear being China taking Taiwan and essentially bringing the world to its knees. Nothing around you works, without those Taiwan chips.

If you did not know TSMC, get to know it. It is likely the most important one company in the world. Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Tesla…all, all companies depend on TSMC and thus I hope you NOW understand why we have had and do have interests in China taking Taiwan. Even if it were a legitimate claim, this is not like Britain relinquishing Hong Kong.
Why is DEI in this debate? Well, the insanity of it, ‘the identity-obsessed dogma that goes by “diversity, equity, and inclusion” — has now trained Google’s new AI to refuse to draw white people.’ etc., etc., etc. And TSMC will have none of it. And any semblance of America getting out of the stranglehold of TSMC etc. is destroyed by DEI and Biden et al. Biden et al. and DEI is destroying America’s ability to compete and gain a foothold in the semiconductor arena and not be held hostage to China in this regard. Make no mistake, WW III will take place to protect TSMC from China and allow America unfettered access.
Now the substack by BibloBitch on this is on point but Biblo I have cautioned is too raw, too offensive, too antisemitic yet freedom of speech is freedom of speech, it protects even what you or I may find offensive. Biblo actually writes very interesting stuff at times yet gross at times, but do I have the right to censor? No, same as I don’t want people to censor me. There are people who run their stacks and block each other, only allow people who pay to comment, block people who write views they do not agree with or who question them. That is wrong. They are part of the problem and I run my stack differently. I am for openness, fairness, transparency, even if I do not like the content. If people play bad, I then return it in kind. If they insult, I insult. If you are nice, I am nice. I am not Jesus, so as much as I did not think that Biblo’s stack on this topic was for the general audience, not for prime-time, I decided to share this one. So Biblo’s is below.
But back to the piece at hand by MATT COLE AND CHRIS NICHOLSON.

‘DEI — the identity-obsessed dogma that goes by “diversity, equity, and inclusion” — has now trained Google’s new AI to refuse to draw white people. What’s even more alarming is that it’s also infected the supply chain that makes the chips powering everything from AI to missiles, endangering national security.
The Biden administration recently promised it will finally loosen the purse strings on $39 billion of CHIPS Act grants to encourage semiconductor fabrication in the U.S. But less than a week later, Intel announced that it’s putting the brakes on its Columbus factory. The Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) has pushed back production at its second Arizona foundry. The remaining major chipmaker, Samsung, just delayed its first Texas fab.
This is not the way companies typically respond to multi-billion-dollar subsidies. So what explains chipmakers’ apparent ingratitude? In large part, frustration with DEI requirements embedded in the CHIPS Act.
Commentators have noted that CHIPS and Science Act money has been sluggish. What they haven’t noticed is that it’s because the CHIPS Act is so loaded with DEI pork that it can’t move.
The law contains 19 sections aimed at helping minority groups, including one creating a Chief Diversity Officer at the National Science Foundation, and several prioritizing scientific cooperation with what it calls “minority-serving institutions.” A section called “Opportunity and Inclusion” instructs the Department of Commerce to work with minority-owned businesses and make sure chipmakers “increase the participation of economically disadvantaged individuals in the semiconductor workforce.”
The department interprets that as license to diversify. Its factsheet asserts that diversity is “critical to strengthening the U.S. semiconductor ecosystem,” adding, “Critically, this must include significant investments to create opportunities for Americans from historically underserved communities.”
The department does not call speed critical, even though the impetus for the CHIPS Act is that 90 percent of the world’s advanced microchips are made in Taiwan, which China is preparing to annex by 2027, maybe even 2025.
Handouts abound. There’s plenty for the left—requirements that chipmakers submit detailed plans to educate, employ, and train lots of women and people of color, as well as “justice-involved individuals,” more commonly known as ex-cons. There’s plenty for the right—veterans and members of rural communities find their way into the typical DEI definition of minorities. There’s even plenty for the planet: Arizona Democrats just bragged they’ve won $15 million in CHIPS funding for an ASU project fighting climate change.
That project is going better for Arizona than the actual chips part of the CHIPS Act. Because equity is so critical, the makers of humanity’s most complex technology must rely on local labor and apprentices from all those underrepresented groups, as TSMC discovered to its dismay.
Tired of delays at its first fab, the company flew in 500 employees from Taiwan. This angered local workers, since the implication was that they weren’t skilled enough. With CHIPS grants at risk, TSMC caved in December, agreeing to rely on those workers and invest more in training them. A month later, it postponed its second Arizona fab.
Now TSMC has revealed plans to build a second fab in Japan. Its first, which broke ground in 2021, is about to begin production. TSMC has learned that when the Japanese promise money, they actually give it, and they allow it to use competent workers. TSMC is also sampling Germany’s chip subsidies, as is Intel.
Intel is also building fabs in Poland and Israel, which means it would rather risk Russian aggression and Hamas rockets over dealing with America’s DEI regime. Samsung is pivoting toward making its South Korean homeland the semiconductor superpower after Taiwan falls.
In short, the world’s best chipmakers are tired of being pawns in the CHIPS Act’s political games. They’ve quietly given up on America. Intel must know the coming grants are election-year stunts — mere statements of intent that will not be followed up. Even after due diligence and final agreements, the funds will only be released in dribs and drabs as recipients prove they’re jumping through the appropriate hoops.
For instance, chipmakers have to make sure they hire plenty of female construction workers, even though less than 10 percent of U.S. construction workers are women. They also have to ensure childcare for the female construction workers and engineers who don’t exist yet. They have to remove degree requirements and set “diverse hiring slate policies,” which sounds like code for quotas. They must create plans to do all this with “close and ongoing coordination with on-the-ground stakeholders.”
No wonder Intel politely postponed its Columbus fab and started planning one in Ireland. Meanwhile, Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo was launching a CHIPS-funded training program for historically black colleges.
Now the secretary is calling for a second CHIPS Act. Before that, let’s make the one we have usable. There’s an easy fix. A bipartisan group of lawmakers is already trying to pass a bill exempting CHIPS funding from the multiyear environmental review required by the National Environmental Policy Act. The same need for speed calls for adding in a veto of the Commerce Department’s diversity tag-alongs. All Congress has to do is insist it meant what it said in the CHIPS Act and no more: giving poor people opportunities isn’t a free pass to enact all of DEI’s pet causes, and especially not to make national security wait on them. What Congress didn’t give, Congress should be willing to take away.
This is the stuff declining empires are made of. As America pursues national security by building a diverse workforce, China does it by building warships.
The CHIPS Act’s current identity as a jobs program for favored minorities means companies are forced to recruit heavily from every population except white and Asian men already trained in the field. It’s like fishing in all the places you aren’t getting bites.
Instead of solving the problem, the people in charge are trying to cover the problem up just long enough to win reelection. Don’t be fooled by the Biden administration’s upcoming weekend-at-Bernie’s act — the CHIPS Act is dead.’
Biblo starts here:
‘CHIPS ACT Declared Dead; You all remember CHIPS Act?? $100 Billion USD to revitalize USA semiconductor & compete with ASIA; DEI assholes have killed USA-SEMI and say Whites & Asians can’t be hired

USA says they want to compete, the only people trained in math&physics to make chips are whites&asians; Dumb xxxxx and ugly lesbian tranny’s don’t study that stuff; But like Boeing – GOV KILLS ALL

DEI killed the CHIPS Act

MEET BO the new CHIPS DEI hire that decides who gets hired at the new TSMC Plant; Guess what happened?? TSMC packed their bags and went back to Taiwan; DEI-Morons makes feces, and that is all they’re capable of making;

Now TSMC has revealed plans to build a second fab in Japan. Its first, which broke ground in 2021, is about to begin production. TSMC has learned that when the Japanese promise money, they actually give it, and they allow it to use competent workers. TSMC is also sampling Germany’s chip subsidies, as is Intel.
