    China getting pushy, and Russia in a hot war with the West, things need securing, and just … letting it all slide because the spectre of war in bothersome, is simply irresponsible. Here’s to the Free world, long may it reign.

      I support AUS forging a bit closer relationship with the West. The coal mining and Chinese money coming into that country is concerning to me.

      War is irresponsible, but a multipolar world is not. This is the US securing Australian alignment with the West, nothing more, nothing less.

      What do Australians get out of it? Fuck if I know. Their largest trading partner is China. They’re rather isolated from US support in the event of a hot war. They really benefit the most from peace and non-alignment tbh.
