The CEO of the world's most valuable company and linchpin of the biggest gold rush in years has been sleeping with one of his clients. The same client who seems to be using that influence to evade sanctions, something that CEO has been trying very hard to prove he is complying.

    Sanctions created solely due to racism; and a gold rush created solely by investor hype with zero actual end user products produced that have ever turned a profit.

    Neither of these things affect the average person positively, and never will. So one again has to ask, why is this news? Elon Musk has like 20 children by ten different women. Do I give a shit? No. Is it news? No. Bill Gates fucks kids and likely murdered at least 3 people in the 1990s during Microsoft's hyper-aggressive mob-like expansion. Is that news? Not really.

    This is two capitalists making deals for their companies to make the largest profit, with no outcome benefiting a single working class person anywhere on earth. It's not news.

    You lost us at the race card, botty. US sanctioned those chips because of advanced intellectual property from the US that could be used against US business interests.

    That's not the case, kiddo. Otherwise the EU and other countries would have been included. The CHIPs act specifically blocks China and China alone.

    Additionally, sinophobia is basically the reason for nearly all US policy on China, good and bad; and is responsible for shaping US policy over the last 150 years. The sole reason the US has restrictive immigration laws is because people were racist to Chinese immigrants.
