I was going to ask how come you (OP) posts regularly such posts on the "Chip War" with recurrent arguments claiming that China is catching and will surpass the "West" soon, e.g https://lemmy.ml/post/19683899/13322374 . It seems from reading your post history https://lemmy.ml/post/19683748/13336881 that you are Canadian but would like to go back to China to live and work there.

So to be direct, are you sharing those articles in the hope of adjusting a biased perspective from the West on its control of the semiconductor industry? Are you yourself hoping to, maybe if your personal circumstances were different, work in that industry with a Chinese patriotic motivation? Feel free to expand a bit more on your motivations more broadly if you feel like it could help myself and others understand your viewpoint and goals.

I love how you just assumed that I'm Chinese which I'm not. One doesn't have to be Chinese to recognize that China has a superior model to the hellscape western capitalism built, and to support it. To be direct, you sound like a raging racist.

I love how you just assumed that I’m Chinese

I bet most people reading "I live in Canada, my family moved here back when I was still in school. I’d like to move to China one day" would assume the same, especially "back" as I understood, but my English isn't perfect, return FROM China. It has nothing to do with "race", culture, politics or economy.

Anyway, this makes it even more interesting, have you already been to China at all then? Worked there? Because I did but I don't want to make assumptions so again feel free to clarify.

PS: also want to make it clear, I didn't say nor assumed that you were Chinese, but of Chinese heritage, a bit different.

I haven't been to China myself, but as I've mentioned in my other comment, I have friends who lived there for many years and like it. And just to clarify for you, I'm caucasian, but I don't see what that has to do with where I'd want to live ideally.
