    Sanctions created solely due to racism

    You lost us at the race card, botty. US sanctioned those chips because of advanced intellectual property from the US that could be used against US business interests.

      That’s not the case, kiddo. Otherwise the EU and other countries would have been included. The CHIPs act specifically blocks China and China alone.

      Additionally, sinophobia is basically the reason for nearly all US policy on China, good and bad; and is responsible for shaping US policy over the last 150 years. The sole reason the US has restrictive immigration laws is because people were racist to Chinese immigrants.
