> We should not sell powerful chips or chipmaking equipment to China
This is so short-sighted given that the US needs China equipment for.. everything. They are part of the supply chain needed for building the machines that build these very chips.

Now they have their own chips and most of Nvidia product line is internally banned.
I never understood that argument, are you saying Chinese companies are not going to build their own chips if they get access to Nvidia chips?
The general rule is: USA bans China from having thing, they make their own version of whatever that thing is. USA bans China from the ISS, they make their own space station. USA bans China from having ASML, they make a Manhattan project to clone it, the "20 years behind the west" line is history. They ban GPU exports, they just start making their own GPUs.
I gotta respect the chinese. I wish my own country had the balls to do this.
US hegemony is one of the biggest problems of our time.
