Yes silly me, you are Correct, Because of Cymer plus they were part of Semantech a consortium funded by DARPA to compete against the Japanese.True.
But the US can still block ASML from selling their EUVLs to China or any other country.

No, Philippines and Australia and New Zealand belong to Chinese sphere of influence if the anglos want Panama and Mexico. If the five eyes object, let them try gunboat diplomacy again, see how they fare this time.What Trump and Xi will negotiate is the establishment of Sphere of Influence zone . For the US the establishment of Fortress America from Canada down to Panama with South America as a neutral zone, for the Chinese the Sinosphere zone and ASEAN with the exception of the Philippines, Australia and New Zealand. Will the US reverse its Pivot to Asia, yes until the next Democrat administration since it was their project under OBAMA. Will Japan acquiescence, yes if China agree for Japan to change its constitute and become a sovereign nation again.
new Morgenthau plan for the Americans, tender the entire continental US as agriculture and natural parks with minimal industry.Case in point, if US want China to let them retain an auto industry, they can put a quota where at least 30% of American GDP must come from farming and 1/3 of US population must work on the farm, if they want China to allow them to maintain access to TSMC, they can commit to banning all development in EV, batteries and solar technology, if they want China to leave them a bone in AI instead of gutting their business with Deepseek, they can promise to cap their semiconductor industry to 1/10th China's size.
Seriously I don't understand why South Korea's so stupid. South Koreans aren't individually stupid; they are amongst the highest academic performers in the US and in the world but here, they're like the retarded kid who raises their hand and gets it wrong when the teacher asks a rhetorical question. Don't they fucking see everyone around them answering differently?? Even Japan isn't this warped and they've been under America's boot even longer than South Korea.Well, the Ukranians managed to be more delusional than both Indians and Americans, lol
Cult like stuff is pretty big in Korean culture. So is fortune telling there, Koreans are smart but at the same time kind of irrational.Seriously I don't understand why South Korea's so stupid.

I remember that there were like 1 or 2 nations of like 20 polled that actually thought the US handled COVID better than China and South Korea being one of them, the more extreme one. And now they have this shit again? I don't understand how they can be so stupid and not see the world around them, American control slipping, Chinese tech overtaking American and Korean specialties that were allowed to them by America. Even the Americans themselves don't have this type of confidence and nations, especially recumbent powers and Western blowhards always overestimate themselves. The only more extreme nation is Ukraine but that's understandable cus you can't think straight when there's debris flying around you every moment and you're just looking for cover but I can't reconcile the difference between how collectively stupid yet individually smart the South Koreans are.
This is nonsense. If the US took the canal from Panama, China would strike the locks on the canal to render it useless during a Sino-US conflict. If the canal remains in hands of the Panama government that declares neutrality and allows equal access to the canal by both sides in the conflict, China will not touch the canal even if China is much less likely to need it.

I remember it was far less pronounced in Japan, which actually should be more extreme than Korea, but they somehow can see more clearly than Koreans. Taiwan is a place that has built its identity on hating China so I understand they can't think straight until we help them. Hong Kong, I'm not sure. Only if you polled during a cockroach riot before they all scurried off to the UK; regular street pollings of normal citizens I don't think would favor the US. The rest of Asia I don't think would fuck this poll up (Indonesia didn't) except the Philippines but they're known for being the stupidest type of Asian by far so I wouldn't think twice about them getting this one wrong as well.I am sure you will see the same kind of result in Japan, Taiwan and Hong Kong. East Asians have the worst white worship out of all. THese countries and so called Chinese liberals have the worst impression of China.
Also the large amount of crazy Christians, which honestly qualify as a cult.Cult like stuff is pretty big in Korean culture. So is fortune telling there, Koreans are smart but at the same time kind of irrational.
It's not that surprising, historically Korea has always been like this:I remember it was far less pronounced in Japan, which actually should be more extreme than Korea, but they somehow can see more clearly than Koreans. Taiwan is a place that has built its identity on hating China so I understand they can't think straight until we help them. Hong Kong, I'm not sure.

These guys are arguing weather they should switch to follow Ming rule or stay with Yuan in 1388! Keep in mind old man Hongwu Emperor captured the Yuan capital and declared himself the emperor of the new Ming Dynasty in 1368! If you can't see which way the wind was blowing after 20 years of Ming rule than there's no helping you.King U's reign was characterised by the political fallout of the demise of the Yuan dynasty and rise of the Ming, with his court divided into pro- and anti-Ming groups. King U was put on the throne by the pro-Yuan official Yi In-Im, and the influence of the latter caused substantial conflict over whether to restore relations with the Yuan or strengthen existing relations with the Ming.
Tensions over this crucial foreign policy protocol had not been resolved when the Ming Dynasty proclaimed its intention to establish a command post headquartered in the Ch'ollyŏng pass at the southern end of the Hamgyŏng Plain in 1388.
Pro-Yuan officials apparently succeeding in persuading the king to take action against the Ming, as he ordered General Yi Seonggye to conquer Yodong in Ming territory. Goryeo's senior military commander, General Ch'oe Yŏng, consulted with General Yi Seong-gye, and determined that removal of the anti-Ming faction from power in Kaesŏng was essential to reducing the perceived threat from Ming China. Supported by Seong-gye, Choi removed Yi In-Im and his group accordingly in a coup d'état and took personal control of the government.
