Americans have a history of the most insidious manipulations in the politics of other nations - did you see their Sec. of state try commemorate the CIA backed coup of Cuba.

About "crying" over foreign interference, you are wrong. In the last 4 years France, Canada, Germany, Romania, Sri-Lanka, Australia, all of the Baltic nations andore have a had credible complaints of attempts from foreign nations trying to use propaganda and more to influence elections.

Let's not try to convince ourselves than only the Americans are misbehaving.

Can we not bother deciding who was the biggest nightmare, and instead focus on finding models for the best countries.

I am so sick of the "at least the USSR had..." or "at least China does..." conversation. Can't we have a "Finland has high happiness, broad socialist protections, and a fast moving economy" kind of conversations.

For this number, is it related to the Chinese government GDP numbers, or independently measured? My understanding is that the CCP use GDP differently that the West, in that they release numbers which are prescriptive estimates and goals, as opposed to statistical results.

What's funnier is that the Americans could have dropped Chinese raw materials if they had built a collaboration before tariffing China, but the current Government have only one tactic: try to bully everyone at once. They really did make their own mess.

Their x86 fabs are producing a 5 yr old Intel node, and with unknown defect rate. This is about getting down to the modern node size to (eventually) to get competitive with the two major ARM nodes.

This could be great news. RISC5 could be great for diversity in the processor space. I at will take investment on the scale that only a national investment like China can invest to get it to compete.

Does China have the Fab capability to build these, or do they need foreign production?

Check the article 5 requirement. I don't see any "unless another NATO country" exceptions.

Probably moot as all the US has to do is increase presence and wait for an "or else" moment, so that they can rely with "or else what?"

Things were different in the periphral nations, than in the center. Those who read your comments with heritage from the peripheral will understand you, and the others will not.

Sinophobia and russophobia are terms that refer to ethnic racism, heavy leveraged by tankies to position political disagreement as racist. In these cases I don't think that the fear was a ethnic based, but rather capitalist or nationalist.

The fear is still unjustified. It's like thinking that you can trust Amazon more than Ali, or Google more than Xiaomi.

There is plenty of racism against Chinese/Asian people, which is a different level of vile.
