Companies like Solugen, EnginZyme, Amyris, and many others are beginning to use engineered microbes and enzymes to manufacture industrial chemicals. Everything from plastics, to chemical intermediates, to solvents, to fuel, even semiconductors (https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aam9756) and nanoparticles (https://microbialcellfactories.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12934-020-01455-5) could all be produced from biological sources. Synthetic biology could soon eliminate the need for Middle Eastern petroleum or Chinese rare earth minerals. So my question to you all is why do so many people on the right oppose biotechnology? This is the only viable path to autarky that we have. Why oppose such technology?

You forgot to mention the advances in biocomputing. No need to rely on Taiwanese factories for chips when you can grow a computer at home.

What if the Taiwanese chips are so much faster, cost-effective and just overall better. So much so, that they relegate homegrown computers to a nerdy hobby?
I mean, your potential to build your own stuff might increase with newer technology. But you'd have to be giga-retarded to think big corporations won't negate it with superior tech and better, more efficient production lines.
