> and everyone on HN thinks that China will invade Taiwan in order to get chips
Most everyone things China will invade Taiwan because they want to own the land. It was once part of "china" but now is a (politically unrecognized) separate nation.
Everyone thinks that the only reason not to invade is that warfare will surely destroy all semiconductor manufacturing on the island.
The US wants to cripple the Chinese semiconductor industry to ensure that Taiwan can't be invaded without severely hurting the Chinese economy.
