The amount of lazy, reflexive anti-Americanism on this site is becoming embarrassing.
Yep, it’s like talking to treasonous morons.
“Gee, why do we not want China to have a military base from which they can attack Australia? I mean everything our enemies do is the same as what we do, so why don’t we surrender or maybe kill ourselves? Wouldn’t that be fair?”
These idiots don’t understand that Russia and China have nuclear weapons and powerful armed forces aimed at US, that they are ruthless abs threaten everything we have.
Did these fools ever listen to Rush Limbaugh explain that this world is ruled by force and the threat of force?
It’s a little thing called reality.
You are framing people in a bad light.
Do I like it that China is settimg up a base?
No.
But people everywhere, of all political stripes, say “So tbe U.S. has hundreds of bases but freaks out over this?”
Do I like China having this base? Again, no.
But I don’t want WW3 over a base? H to the no.
And Solomon Islands undoubtedly will tell the U.S. that they don’t own them.
Our southern border is being invaded and it is unsustainable. Nearly 42,000 people ages 18-45 died from just fentanyl overdoses alone in 2021. It’s a national emergency. Not to mention the crime and strain on all our resources.
I’m embarrassed some people care more for places thousands of miles away than they do USA. That’s anti-Americanism.
