The person filing the suit, Deborah Howington, is a self-described American 'Caucasian'. Racism doesn't really exist for white Americans. Discrimination maybe, racism no.
The US wants this fab up and running fast, but they also want TSMC to waste a bunch of time translating all their operations over into English.
The more time they spend arguing over this stupid shit, the better.
That's incredibly disingenuous. There are 12 suit filers in total, among which are Elena Huizar, a self described Latina woman, and Modupe Adesemoye, a self-described African American woman. Further, Howington is the primary suit filer because she was a hiring manager with the company, she isn't some white woman crying about not getting a job. She approached a lawyer because she was told to discard the applications of non-Taiwanese individuals and American born workers applying for unionized positions. Did you even bother reading the suit?
A multi-billion dollar corporation could commission a hundred translators and have their entire operations translated in under a month if they wanted to. That wouldn't even register as a rounding error in their budget and expenses. They're pissy that a discriminatory scheme they cooked up to save costs and disrupt union activity is getting exposed.

Are you telling me that Taiwanese capital is opposed to workers' rights?
Mfw when capital attempts to smash workers rights and unions no matter its country of origin 😔
But yes. Any form of capital rabidly despises workers rights if it prevents them from earning even one more penny. Who would have guessed lol
