There might actually be a direct relationship there as well. Taiwan being the chokepoint for western chip production puts them in a perfect position to insert backdoors into all western tech. There's a reason the US was freaking out over Huawei tech spreading in the west. The problem with it isn't that there's some Chinese malware in it, but rather that western agencies can't use it for spying.

part of me is glad the the chinese didn't insist on the tariffs on chip making; but as someone with a very slightly above average passing familiarity w the industry; i'm aware that it's going to take them decades to catch up using the methods that the united states employs.

given the extent at which the epstein files shows us how much in the palm of their hands we exist, it's become my sincere hope that they're able to bridge the gap more quickly somehow. however, given their anemic responses to venezuela or cuba or the reversal of the tide of their belt & road initiatives in asia and latin america (and soon africa), i'm not sure it'll make much of a difference.

too few of us are applying what we've learned from those files and combining it with what the marxists have already revealed, but we can do little more than watch the overwhelming majority double down on the red vs blue team fights as well as blame russia for epstein illuminati's existence.

technology has been the most impactful reason -- by far


for why the phrase "ruling class" entered into american mainstream consciousness and gave us the opportunity to temporarily pierce this self imposed veil and i don't doubt that the other illuminati groups referenced in the latest batch of files have already enacted plans to close this breach.
