China genuinely doesn't care about Taipei at this point, given how close mainland native chips are to tsmc chips. If Taipei does a rebellion it'll get shut down and the US in its current form wouldn't be able to aid it; but as long as the frog doesn't jump it won't get hit.
It’s not about the technology or the economics. It’s about the symbolism for China.
Exactly, it's blind fascism as they try to recapture their idealized past not anything strategic.
Is nostalgic fascism contagious? Seems like there’s an awful lot of it. I hate this timeline.
