Replying to @angeloinchina
China’s military modernisation is in parallel with the growth of its GDP. The “accusation” in effect seeks to argue that China’s GDP expansion is somehow illegitimate. The silence is that the U.S. has outspent the next 9 nations in “defence” for decades. Propaganda, to be effective, can’t just ring nicely as a sound bite - the stock in trade of the contemporary Australian political class - but must have a reasonable connection to various dimensions of complex reality.

Australia's defence minister found the biggest military build-up since 1945. In China.
Richard Marles told the ASEAN defence ministers' meeting in the Philippines that China is carrying out "the biggest conventional military build-up" since the end of the Second World War, leaving the region in a "condition of pressure".
His answer: "rules which give us agency".
This is the same Australia that signed AUKUS for nuclear submarines costing up to A$368 billion. That hosts rotating US Marines in Darwin. That is building facilities for US B-52s at Tindal.
Build-up for me. Pressure for you.
Canberra doesn't need more submarines. It needs a foreign policy written in Canberra.

“Bu babamla ilgili son çağrım: Onu kurtarın!”
📣 Gazzeli kahraman Doktor Hussam Abu Safiya’nın oğlundan babası için SON çağrı!
▪️Babam artık nefes almakta zorlanıyor.
Konuşamıyor
.
▪️Yüzü, gördüğü işkence yüzünden tanınmaz halde.
▪️Ne acı ki, büyük bir yalnızlığa terk edildik.
İki milyardan fazla Müslümana, yirmi ikiden fazla Arap ve İslam ülkesine seslendik. Ama siz duymazdan geldiniz.
▪️Size bir kez daha yalvarıyor, çağrıda bulunuyor, yardım istiyoruz. Çok geç olmadan babamın hayatını kurtarın.
▪️Belki de bu, son yardım çığlığımız olacak. Belki bir daha babamdan haber alamayacağız.

Volvió la lucha popular en Francia, a pesar de las amenazas y las prohibiciones del régimen de Macron, se vieron auténticas batallas campales con las fuerzas represivas policiales.
Esta es la verdadera celebración de Halloween, combatir a los monstruos capitalistas reales.

Penny so comfortable with Narco Rubio who's greatest joy right now is the starvation and deprivation of Cubans, for the sin of being Cubans.
Thank you to @SecRubio for bringing us together in Atlanta at a time of significant global challenges.
We discussed how Australia and the United States can continue to strengthen our alliance, support stability in our region and build greater economic security and resilience.

Albanese’s transformation from a Palestinian supporter to an enabler of their genocide by Israel is gobsmacking.
How does anyone make that change & retain any credibility about anything?

How on earth did China build all of this in the last years?
They do not have Soviet style communism. They have a free market with permission to become rich.
China has just not allowed capitalism, which are the methods to abuse a free market if you have too much money or influential friends.
They also do not have parties that can be influenced by rich election donors.
