China didn't attack Iran and send global oil prices sky high. China doesn't bully my government into bad defence contracts.

I'm so tired of racist fear mongering about China. They aren't a perfect country, but the suggestion of the United States judging any other nation right now is mind boggling.

China didn't continually insist Iran was two weeks away from a nuclear weapon for five decades, nor did they bomb and kill the religious leader that expressly declared nuclear and chemical weapons are against God and Islam.

Believing American narratives at face value is an unhinged reality to live in.

America is the most propagandized place on Earth, after all.

Australia has no defence contracts with China. Partly because of the "alliance" with the United States.

When he says alliance, what he means is how Australia is paying the US to cuckold it about 2nd hand submarines it will never get, while also paying the US to gaslight Australia that they will get them as long as they continue letting the US cuckold Australia until that makes them respect them enough to then sell the 2nd hand submarines.
