Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS

I mean China already makes over 40% of chips used by the DoD 😂

China's going to have to sanction the USA at some point
indeed
surprised they're making anything that doesn't have Chinese chips in it. guess that's why military electronics are 200x as expensive as consumer stuff and also worse
lol yeah
Most of these contractors sell to civilians at reasonable prices but mark up their shit for the government. It’s not because of China’s resources but because the US is too cucked to say no to their suppliers.
Wonder how much of the grey chunk is from "Taiwan", probably a lot. Meaning it's essentially controlled/destroyed by China in a few days if the US starts some shit.
yup
China already makes most primer chemicals for the US lol. Russia also banned its cheap steel ammo exports which contributed to the spike in ammo prices in the US
