I’m sure you’d agree that the libertarian side of all parties, including the left, would count as fascism then?

No, that wouldn't make any sense. I would count them as anarchists.

Doesn't matter where it is based. Nvidia relies on 7nm N7 chips from TSMC for its GPUs. TSMC is based in Taiwan. Both at mercy of China - from trade routes going through South China Sea as well as raw materials being sourced from China. > TSMC is hosted by a strongly west-aligned country. Which is right next to an increasingly hostile neighbour who keeps threatening to invade it. Unless the West is willing to go to W…

nvidia doesn’t NEED tsmc, they have actually proved otherwise with the success of ampere on samsung chips

Samsung isn't really safe either. It is head quartered in South Korea with 2 really hostile neighbours. After Taiwan, South Korea could very well be China's next target.

It would be cool if we could just focus on climate change though. We didn’t need a another man made crisis to deal with. Imagine if a real natural disaster occurs within the next 5 years, like another Chernobyl. It will be pretty tragic for our species.

the thing is, there are several of such disasters happening every year because of climate change, and given that climate change is man-made, we can infer that those disasters are too. Pretty tragic for our species indeed, but even more tragic for the other species that live on this planet.

Those disasters are not happening here, though.
