We’re just ignoring that a key part of taiwanese defense planning is self destructing the chip plants in the event of an invasion?

No I'm more focusing on the tensions surrounding those chip plants. And how were doing everything we can to prevent the destruction of those chip plants from affecting Google, Amazon, Meta, Military operations, etc.

I think it's the epicenter of a potential trigger point for God damn ww3, especially given the current state of geopolitical tensions.

I only bring it all up when I see news that continues to confirm that it appears this is the direction it's moving.

Y'all seen the tensions flaring in the South China sea? Shit is heating up.
