There’s absolutely no connection to a company doing their largest investment ever in a country actively committing Genocide which has a high likelihood to be the center of ww3 and idealogical support of that coutnry. None whatsoever.

It’s telling how saying TikTok is owned by China is something that while also technically untrue never gets so many liberals off their chairs to debate technicalities.

And I can use all this same logic for TikTok not being owned by China. Am I supposed to call anyone suggesting otherwise Sinophobic now?

When israel gives Intel massive subsidies to buid fabs there do you believe there is no ownership nor influence involved? There is absolutely no way that Intel can have such deep direct ties with israel without israel having a massive stake and influence in the company.

Deciding to build a $25 Billion factory in israel at this current moment in time is absolutely bonkers and impossible to explain in any other way than some serious Zionist shenanigans going on.

Yes it’s all just extremely coincidental that Intel does their main investments in an Apartheids state in the middle east 7000 miles away instead of in America. And good job accusing people of anti-semitism to defend israel. Sure haven’t heard that one before. When Intel has direct lines to Netanyahu and Smotrich one might start asking questions.

Tell me how much research was done into calling TikTok a Chinese owned company? Even Bytedance is behind a few shell companies that dissolve their ownership from being traced to China. So by that logic I can now say that TikTok is not Chinese either.

Buying a startup and building a new factory are entirely different.

Intel is investing in israel because the board members and owners are israeli and they are ideologically motivated to support the Apartheid state.

It does not take a genius to realize that making your biggest investment ever in an active war zone where WW3 is likely to pop off is not a great plan. It would be like Russia starting a chip factory in the Donbass.

In any case the stock doesn’t fall without reason. And unlike AMD with Ryzen there does not seem to be a magical comeback plan for Intel that is paying off over time. ARC has failed to deliver.

And if we wanna do semantics TikTok is not owned by China either

Yeah and TikTok is a Singaporean company and has nothing to do with China.

There might be a reason why LTT videos of Intel tours go to israel. And why Intel is spending 25 Billion on building a chip factory in israel during the height of the israeli Genocide in Gaza.

2023-12-23 Intel will build $25 billion chip factory in Israel’s ‘largest investment ever’

The Israeli government and Intel confirmed plans to build a $25 billion chipmaking factory in the south of the country, an investment Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has described as the biggest in Israel’s history.

The American tech giant already employs 11,700 people in Israel and has invested more than $50 billion in the country over the last 50 years.

Intel now wants to expand its existing chipmaking factory at Kiryat Gat — about 16 miles northeast of Gaza — undeterred by the October 7 attacks and the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas. Reuters earlier reported the news.

“Intel has chosen to approve an unprecedented investment of $25 billion and to establish its new factory right here in Israel,” Israel’s finance minister Bezalel Smotrich wrote in a post on X on Tuesday.

Notice the praise from Netanyahu and Smotrich in there

Investing in israeli companies right now is a high risk low reward move.

Remember that Intel got their advantage by sabotaging AMD around 2009. They illegally bribed OEMs into not using AMD chips when AMD was ahead.

It’s no wonder this company that can only use dirty tricks to get ahead turns out to be ran by israelis.

Intel stuck with $1.45 billion fine in Europe for unfair and damaging practices against AMD

The EU found, in part:

That Intel paid rebates to manufacturers on the condition that they would buy all (Dell) or nearly all of their CPUs from Intel. That it paid retail stores rebates to only stock x86 parts.

That it paid computer manufacturers to halt or delay the launch of AMD hardware, including Dell, Acer, Lenovo, and NEC

That it restricted sales of AMD CPUs based on business segment and market. OEMs were given permission to sell higher percentages of AMD desktop chips, but were required to buy up to 95% of business processors from Intel. At least one manufacturer was forbidden to sell AMD notebook chips at all.

You didn’t answer the question so I’ll take that as a yes

You’re obsessed AF and that’s putting it mildly honestly

The projection is astounding do you happen to live in israel?

Last time you said I was only posting negative things about Biden because I was a Russian troll. Weird you’re seeing other patterns now.

And there’s plenty of other posts where you magically never show up concern trolling

They’re trying to beat paper

Lemmy.world has many tankies. You keep seeing them pretend israel is not committing Genocide and America needs to kill all student protesters Tiannenmen style. They are also called liberals

Lemmy.ml does not have many tankies.

One day those tankies people here keep talking about are going to show up.

One day.

I always check under my bed each night to make sure there’s no tankies.

Mullvad is 5 bucks a month and never has promos.

Weigh that against Nord which often has a year for like 15 bucks…

But Mullvad is one of the few that actually seems to care about privacy.

Calm today so I figured I’d try some lib-posting
