A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

well, no, brexit only fucked over great britain, re-electing trump fucked over the entire planet, ukraine and taiwan specifically, but the entire free world is going to suffer from american disengagement. whole lot more people going to be speaking russian in the next two years. for the folks who think america only fucked themselves, lol, thereastormacomin meme springs to mind, and i for one, apologize in advance for what we've done

taiwan

fuck.. didn't even consider that till now...

Even with Trump, the US military complex will just NOT let TSMC to be taken away from them.

But as soon as foundries are done and producing on US soil... then ya.. pray for Taiwan, because US won't have a good reason to risk direct conflict with China over that island.
