We’re not. This one Dutch company is. Funny the title says racing. ASML is so far past everyone else it’s not even fair.

Pretty much any one making anything smaller than 10nm chips is using Dutch technology. That’s why them not signing on to the sanctions on China are such a huge deal. China is about 8-10 years behind Taiwan in chip technology while having access to ASML tech.

If they are sanctioned of that tech it will further extend the west technology superiority by a margin of 5-10 more or even more years seeing as 1nm is a gunna be a thing.

Edit: To add to this the US at the moment if deprived of Taiwan would be infinitely further behind as we have almost no domestic production of chips and instead rely on South Korea taiwan and japan for near 100% of our chip production. But once again. Using Dutch tech.

Edit: ASML

So. Genocide dosent have to be a 100% annihilation of a race, ethnicity, religious, or national group. And it dosent have to only be done by killing.

While they can be and we do have examples of complete and total genocide like the Taíno people of the Caribbean or the Jōmon people of japan.

Another very common form of genocide can come from culturally killing a people. Like what happened in the USA and Canada. And is also happening right now in Ukraine. This is accomplished by kidnapping and indoctrination of a groups young people until they no longer remember or At least no longer practice the culture of their ancestors.

And I’d argue that the Mayan way of life no longer exist. Making this not only genocide. But a successful one.
