Plus Intel supports Apartheid Israel. Both the company and their tech don't support freedom, privacy, or liberty

Buddy. Their a processor company. They sell computational processors. At what point do you blame water companies for supporting Israel for supplying Israel water. Calm down.

They are the largest tech employer in Israel

Because they could invest that money anywhere besides an Apartheid State committing genocide

In 2020, Intel was indirectly employing some 53,000 workers in Israel, and in 2022 Intel Israel declared record exports of $8.7 billion, constituting 1.75% of Israel’s entire GDP and 5.5% of all Israeli tech exports.

Intel’s declared goal from this investment, to “ensure that Israel remains a global center of semiconductor technology and talent,” is politically and ideologically driven. Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger has paid over 100 visits to Israel, and considers Intel’s business in Israel “deeply personal” to him.

In comparison, Intel has suspended plans to invest $20 billion in new chipmaking facilities in Ohio (US), driving jobs away from the US to apartheid Israel.

Plus, Israel steals their water from the Palestinian people

Legitimately back when I chose my CPU and I was debating between the Intel i9 14900K and the AMD 7950x3D, my final decision to go with AMD came down to this because at the time their specs seemed almost identical. And based on the more recent news about the 14 series, I absolutely made the right decision! 🇵🇸

While i tend to prefer AMD i wouldn't put it past them to cut deals with israel if it meant huge profits for Ms Su.

I don't think China does either, so kind of odd to bring that up.
