    China is dealing with millions of unemployed and pissed of workers as the world see's their con job for what it is.

    It was ridiculous enough that the so called "freedom loving West" allowed them to use slave labor to gain economic power.

    But stealing technology, cheating in currency, using spies in Universities, spreading a virus by only lying to us over and over, and now being aggressive to basically every neighbor.

    No I don't give two squats about you people who hate the US and want to scream "B-b-b-ut US imperialism!!!!!"

    Yeah we know, the Globalists Bush, Clinton and Obama are gone forever, the new US has actual ethics.

    China is losing jobs by the tens of millions and their worst fear has come true in Wuhan, people want Freedom of Speech and the less jobs the Commies create, the more people will be pissed off.

    BOYCOTT CHINA 100%

    Sounds obvious to me. The Chinese eat dogs so they're about to invade Australia.

    From the article:
    “By following the steps of some US hawks who harshly attack China over coronavirus, ‘it seems that Australia, this giant kangaroo that serves as a dog of the US, will hit a deadlock with China on trade disputes in sectors like coal and beef. Hopefully, the US will compensate it!’ one netizen said in a Weibo post on Tuesday.”

    I suspect we're going to see some wound up Aussie posters, with this thread.


    Great post.

    In all fairness Australia was Chinas lap dog for quite some time. Thry have sometimes been critical with words but this is awesome. Glad to see Australia really go after them. Hopefully it keeps snowballing.

    Funny things often happen when you you speak truth to leftist governments.

    But sometimes the consequences are deadly ...

    China is unravelling completely in its relationship with Australia, they are going all out with the insults, trade restrictions and threats, using a hammer to solve even the most delicate of problems. The Australian response so far.... meh :lol:

    (Scratching head) So are you declaring Australia to be an owned dog of a nation but also declaring that the identity of the ownership remains in question?

    Australia has long been wary of China and almost all of the NATO and bipartisan exercises we did centered on countering a threat from China, not from Russia. At least, not after the wall fell and the Cold war ended. China has been very active in the region and they have an economic strategy that is destroying countries or making them very dependent on China. They have been establishing ports and bases on loan with countries. If the host country cannot pay back China, China negotiates for base leases, etc. Once China has the port, they can control who comes in and out and then, use their own ships and products, etc. The host country now loses who came in and when.

    It's working.

    The US - Australian bond has been strengthened in the last 3 years though. The US Navy and armed forces is much stronger and we can react faster as we now have loaded guns, again. We have increased cooperation and readiness across the board. It's a welcome change.

    China is attempting to close off the South China Sea and this will either lead to war or it will lead to the US leaving the region putting a lot of our allies in a very uncomfortable position. The worst case scenario, next to a shooting war, is that China taxes every ship that enters it's territory...as in, the entire South China Sea. Basically they would total control of entire region and hold it hostage.

    Not really. They have the US Democrats backing them just to oust Trump this election.

    LOLs

    They don't like their gravy train turning on them. They already own half the Australian apartments built in the past 10 years (leaving many of them vacant - which removes a huge percentage of housing from the market), and wanted to keep buying up our property until nothing was left for citizens but offshore landlords. They've been p!ssed about the new regulations on property buying, ever since we said 'no more' three years ago.

    I saw a vid on youtube of Chinese just taking land that was already privately owned. I can't remember where it was. Were they doing that in Australia too?

    What was changed about the law and property owning?

    Not sure what that's about, but it didn't happen here. Our title laws are probably too tight for anything like that to slip through.

    As for changes, we made it much harder for non-citizens to buy property. Originally it was possible to buy property with a single form of ID, which can be very easily conjured by determined sharks (and was, on a horribly regular basis). Now you must jump through a much smaller hoop to prove citizenship, which effectively closes the multi-layered proxies loophole. IE, using layers of business incorporation etc to circumvent citizen requirements.

    Wish they would do that here in the US. But our US government is stupid. Probably afraid of being called 'racist' so they'll let the rest of the world pick apart the US bit by bit.

    It can't be construed as racism, since it applies to ALL non-residents/citizens. Doesn't matter whether you're Chinese, or Norwegian.

    If someone thinks that example of complete equality is wrong, I would submit that it's they who are racist.

    Can I just be very clear about this: I see China as the Nazi Germany of our times. No, seriously, let's get real here. They've had detention camps, they literally committed eugenics on their own people and their aggression has become militaristic, and maybe(probably) had intel of the virus and maybe(probably) let it go free.

    What are we waiting for, a repeat of Poland? No, it's time to channel Churchill. **** them, and **** that. There's no appeasement, there's no peace in our time. The situation has devolved too much for that.

    They may well end up cut off from the rest of the world, NK style. Assuming the world turns its collective back.

    I think this is partially China trying to save face. Like everyone else the Chinese economy have been crushed by Covid-19, it then received another blow when demand dried up as the US shut down for the pandemic. I think they were going to cancel many of the orders anyway but instead of saying we don't have the demand anymore they sling insults at Australia so they can save face...
