    Yup exactly. The machine’s serviceable parts need very specific and complicated techniques to produce. Whatever you think China can conjure together, they’re gonna be dancing for around the same amount of time it took the US, Germany and the Netherlands to produce. So about a decade. Sure they got most of the machine already if I understand correctly, but that’s like giving a broken iPad to a monkey. And don’t feel bad if you’re Chinese, it would be the same if any other group of people tried to make it.

      And this is why they’ve been beating every hurdle the west has put up against them. Keep equating people to monkeys and wait for them to shit you on the face. Fuck the CCP, but there are probably more people than US, Germany and the Netherlands combined working specifically in chip manufacturing in China.

      If you only ever think there’s just one solution to a problem and everyone else are monkeys scratching their ass. You give them more reasons to beat the odds.

      Keep it up though.

      Tech has gotten cheaper since China got into the race and the whining on the other side has only made it more enjoyable.

        The whole problem is that every piece of technology China gets is immediately used by the CCP to enslave them better, it’s why they revolutionized omni-surveillance, tracking and biometrics, and their first and strongest application for AI was monitoring their population for anything they consider threatening to their control (ie freedom).

        It’s why everyone hates China and wants to see them fail horribly, but don’t hate India in the same way as they’re nominally democratic.

        Don’t support genocidal fascists and cry like they’re the underdog, nobody in history killed more Chinese than the CCP, not even Genghis Khan.
