Are you the guy that keeps spamming blogs about "TSMC, chips and how taiwan is so important to the US" to HN?
> Furthermore, the Taiwanese people deserve the right to self-determination
Taiwan has 20 million people. Mainland china has 1.4 billion people. I believe the "self-determination" part is already settled.
> and our support if they decide to go their own way.
Nope. Let them settle it. We shouldn't have been involved in the first place.
> it's always been odd to me that the U.S. chooses to placate Beijing, at the risk of losing a reliable partner (Taiwan) in a strategic industry.
Are you serious? One is the second largest economy in the world. The other is taiwan.
Every week, there is some bullshit blog spam about how important TSMC is. Why is that? Who is paying for it?

What does population have to do with self determination?
> Nope. Let them settle it. We shouldn't have been involved in the first place.
Except they were allied with the US and deals were drawn up that should be honored.
> Are you serious? One is the second largest economy in the world. The other is taiwan.
He said in a strategic industry, which semiconductors are.
If there is TSMC spam it's probably because this is a tech forum and they is a lot of movement in the field in the last year, mostly related to the failings of Intel and the rise of TSMC.
