I didn't think any of those companies did any manufacturing. Are we talking about the same thing? My understanding was there was only three names in manufacturing (the ones I mentioned)

What do you mean by it would force us not to tiptoe around China?

On that note, what do you think about Trump's policy against Huawei when he was president? I'm inclined to think it's a good thing despite it not being something Obama (or Clinton or Biden/Harris) would do

Is it really a good idea to let Taiwan and Samsung control all semiconductor manufacturing?

Old people: huh? What's a wifi

Meanwhile... other huge companies like intel are laying off 15k workers

Fair enough. Dude either deleted their account or blocked me or something. Sucks this sub is dead tho

What's wrong with being interested in American politics? Why are you being so rude? It looks like their first/only post in this community

To be clear, I don't think most of these folks fully understand the consequences of supporting fascist politicians. My imm. aunt startled me a bit yesterday when said something like democracy means gay people everywhere. I said that's not true and "reminded" her democracy is a system of gov where citizens can vote, one where women weren't previously able to participate in, nor black citizens.

Still, where does that leave us? No fuckin joke, we basically need to stop trying to use facts to reach certain folks. My understanding is that means we need to use emotions/emotional intelligence. How do we do that? Not sure. Many of us had to numb the fuck out to survive what we call American culture, so we're really just barely learning

How do we now make Americans that kinda hate our guts, because of tons of propaganda, that we care about them and want to work with them to improve our nation? Most libs kinda do come off like they hate them, tbf

Idk if that made sense. Kinda stuck rn

Do y'all talk to people day-to-day?

I hear a lot of anti immigrant rhetoric from my immigrant aunts and my more "trashy" or low-class friends (all kids of immigrants)

I've been saying this for more than a decade now, before bots became such a huge thing (I think), if YouTube comments are any reflection of the average person/American, we're so beyond fucked. I absolutely do not practice cynicism

You're both right.

Nazis had death camps, which are a type of concentration camp.

Concentration camps were what Americans had, when we imprisoned Japanese-American citizens. Apparently, Internment camps are concentration camps for "enemies" and supposedly not meant to imprison a country's own citizens

It shouldn't be hard to understand the benefit of this being confusing and who it benefits. It benefits the people that supported these unreasonable and racist actions and those that have profited off such actions economically and socially

Source, though I didn't read everything

Have you/Has anyone seen the r/worldnews subreddit lately? Shit's wild! Can't imagine how hard it would be to join/leave that community and learn the truth

You can/should try to understand how that's logically sound

For example, if you never exercise and eat terrible shit your entire life, you can expect every doctor's visit to be worse than the last. Same with the dentist or going to the mechanic when you fail to do required maintenance.

Yeah I'll believe it when I see it
