  2. and you seriously think the Conservatives would have been better? just because one is not perfect, does not mean going with the worse option. New Zealand has unfortunately learnt that. Canada luckily didn’t.

  3. doesn't matter. The US and it's allies dominated militarily in Vietnam, as they did in Afghanistan.

  6. The US will defend the use of the US dollar in international trade and will use any means to keep it that way, including putting other geopolitics aside. A great example of this was the Dai Hong Dan incident in 2007, where the US Navy teamed up with North Korean sailors to fend off Somali pirates who tried to take over the ship and US Navy medics treated the injured North Korean sailors. This even got praise of North Korean national TV.

  8.  @JustAnotherAccount8  Yet another one who hasn't seen the policies changes Albanese Labor has enacted

  9. What a shock, a person who doesn't get that explaining a thing doesn't mean you endorse or support the thing.

  10. As I stated before, The Pacific Islands aren't 'weak' 'damsels in distress' that needs saving from anyone and painting this picture ignores the history of Pacific Island nation geopolitics. In fact, in reality, they have greatest diplomatic clout now than they ever have had and have always deliberately played the bigger powers against one another for that pure pure self interest. I studied South Pacific geopolitics, with a focus on Chinese relations.

  11.  @okene  the elephants will always fight. You might as well use them. We live in reality. No nation fights alone nor have they ever since civilisation. Even other territorial animals make alliances with each other to protect and fight another.

  12.  @letsburn00  yep, competent, no doubt millennial aged, political strategists.

  14.  @lordpolish2727  it's a 1.7 percent margin bud. Josh Frydenburg, who was arguably the most likeable of all the senior Liberal MPs, had a bigger margin and still lost his seat last election.

  16.  @Naijarianman  yep, as I said, *laughs in CFA Franc*

  17. Also the West have broken many a 'international laws and order' over time in the South Pacific, don't kid yourself. And yes, that includes post-colonialism and recently. See the Australian government bugging of the East Timorese government in the early 2000s.

  21. @z0ltisgod LOL. Maybe actually look into what Jacinda was doing and finally addressing the things both party's neglected in the past but good job, Kiwis 'Brexit'ed' themselves. Again. (The first time was voting against the decriminalisation of cannabis). Kiwis like to think they are progressive, but voting patterns indicate differently.

  22.  @CaffeinePX  as opposed to Trumps' (and therefore Russia's) puppet?

  23. depends on state.

  25. see my comment, you know nothing in reality.

  26. How's the Ruble exchange rate these days? I see you would monitor it well with that AfD content LOL - y'know a party with KNOWN CONFIRMED Russian government links and even you can't deny that.

  27. oh no. The comments section is too good in this video *laughs and cries*

  28. 5:10 - this 'dollar diplomacy' recognition game between PR China and Taiwan has played out since the mid 90s in reality. Nothing new. Twas quite funny when Kiribati let PR China build a satellite station, switched their recognition to Taiwan because they got a better deal, and kicked the PR Chinese off the island that hosted the satellite station and thanked the PR Chinese for building it LOL. As said in another comment, I studied South Pacific geopolitics, with a focus on Chinese relations. this 'great power' contention in the South Pacific is nothing new. In the 70s and 80s, it was the West vs the USSR and Japan for political influence.

  31. 'Kiribati' is pronounced 'Kiri-bas'.

  32. Except the very Internet you are smart one LOL

  33.  @juancarlosalonso5664  did you even watch the video a few seconds after they pointed that out?

  34. ok, this geopolitical dark humour is pretty good *laughs and cries*
    2
  35. Mighty strange how threatening trade somehow makes geopolitical rivals and hate magically go away eh e.g. China, Japan and South Korea meeting together and in the past, the US and North Korea fighting together in the Dai Hong Dan incident

  36. Michael West appears from nowhere! (For others, Michael is one of, if not, the leading independent journalist in Australia)

  37.  @segiraldovi  wrong. The public sector often has to compete against the private sector and in reality, the tiny amount extra on wages is nothing vs the lost productivity but people like you can't see past the initial numbers.

  38.  @chillibean281  *Labor eh. The betting markets are heavily favouring them 🤣 - As the saying goes ‘You can lie with your mouth, but your wallet tells the truth’- the only question is how much the Greens and independents, who mostly lean left as well, get.

  39. and you'll see it next week with Australia :D - And it's the same thing with people rejecting Trumpism politics. We DO NOT like Trump down under.

  40. The right did. And lost. LOL. COPE. GO TRUMP, GET THUMPED

  41. 1 - It is not the whole dollar amount that counts in debt, it is it vs the size of the economy and how trustworthy you are that you will pay it back. Hoser's 'who has the most debt' video explains this well (with memes too) and he studied economics in university. 2 - Singapore does this perfectly fine and also a lot of people do this. It is similar to 'margin trading'. Once again, people are ignorant of how finance works and/or economics.

  42. yes it did. See 1973 oil crisis LOL

  43. How's Milo and that Pillow Man going?

  44.  @Whoisthis1111  Dutton has a $600 million property portfolio.

  45. Kinda pisses me off you didn't watch the video and know the US does in out of self interest, mainly for the things stated in the video. Pure self interest. The US will defend the use of the US dollar in international trade and will use any means to keep it that way, including putting other geopolitics aside. A great example of this was the Dai Hong Dan incident in 2007, where the US Navy teamed up with North Korean sailors to fend off Somali pirates who tried to take over the ship and US Navy medics treated the injured North Korean sailors.

  46.  @deanstyles2567  they’re ‘Tree Tories’ if you look at their voting record.

  47. Donald said 'You're fired' (see what I did there :D)

  48.  @matthewy543  and ASML don't. The EU has big stakes because of this (ASML is a Dutch company and has a total monopoly of the machines TSMC uses to manufacture the chips)

  49. and you think the Conservatives would have been better? LOL - Just because one is far from perfect, doesn't mean you should vote for the worse option.

  50. They haven't attacked since December.
