FMD. Someone posts something that you don’t like and you resort to vitriol, calling me an ignorant backyarder. And yet you vote Labor without question?You are an ignorant backyarder. You have no idea of Australian history, let alone Chinese history. You can't even extrapolate the most obvious from statements made by current ALP members looking at an election within a few months.
I mean what do you reckon those on the ALP side would say? "Yeah Keating's right and here you go, we've just handed the desperado Morrison with his wedge"? Is that what you reckon anyone with half a brain from the ALP side would say? hahahahahahahaaa the only ones doing the laughing around here are the ones reading your drivel and wondering how, with our education system, there are still people like you!
Your hero, the moron Supremacist Morrison, is so, so reflective of the idiots that follow him that he thought that he could stand up in front of the cameras and say that what a private citizen of Australia, all be it one with enormous insights and an ex-Prime Minister, somehow speaks for the opposition and all he's done is make himself look even more of an arse than what he already is. He is truly reflective of his vacuous followers and acolytes.
Privately, many, many people within the ALP completely agree with Keating but do you reckon they would be so stupid as to publicly endorse Keating's remarks at this stage of the political cycle? Just quietly, there are many on the Liberal side and in the farming sector, you know, the ones with some brains, unlike the imbeciles like Morrison, that agree wholeheartedly with Keating.
When Morrison and his lot of disgusting dross are turfed out at the next election, it'll be the ALP who will AGAIN restore our reputation and drag us into the the third decade of the 21st century and then put us miles in front of the rest whilst you flatearthers and knuckdraggers, scamper around looking for another hero to attack another boogie man.
Meanwhile, those with a modicum of intelligence, will have a good belly laugh at the defenders of John Howard's continued justification of Afghanistan and Iraq and not issuing an apology to Aboriginals, "children overboard", deliberately undermining the United Nations in which we played a critical role in establishing, only to completely disregard the wishes of the United Nations and participate in an illegal invasion of a sovereign country .......... yep we'll keep laughing at you for denigrating an Australian patriot whilst you and your lot suck up to the UnAustralians like Morrison, Howard and Abbott.
but Richard Marles is within reason to say his views on the matter are not in line with the ALP's contemporary position...
If you did watch his address then you would know that PK himself said his views are not in line with the ALP's contemporary position.
That was part of the reason that he chose to give an address to the NPC for the first time in more than 20 years.
Im not a silverspooner like yourself and have to get my hands dirty and work 50 hour plus weeks so forgive me for tying to keep up to date with events as best I can and that I got some minor very peripheral detail i my post that was not 100 per.cent accurate.
Is there anything that I posted that you disagree with?
There's a lesson for you, don't parrot stuff the media says.
If you can't even get basic facts right then your analysis is worthless.
Peter Hartcher is a harlot. He get's fed stories by Politicians and others with an agenda and just regurgitates them. Without Kevin Rudd and Julie Bishop and other politicians and flunkeys, he'd be redundant.OP needs to settle down. He goes off on tangents and it's like he's trying to be a stand up comedian or something.
He flicks a lot of mud at the LNP - and a lot of it is valid, but not relevant to the subject - He has a propensity to go off on angry rants without taking a breath and being unable to see the nuance rooted from him splashing in the mud of the culture wars and his hatred of Sky News.
Paul Keating was a visionary - some say Australia's best Prime Minister - but Richard Marles is within reason to say his views on the matter are not in line with the ALP's contemporary position.
Some posters complain about the culture wars 'bullshit', but can't see that they encapsulate it. What's also lost is the nuance to the media landscape - it's not all Sky News vs ABC -
Good article by Peter Hartcher - did Keating really put 'everything' into perspective?
King Keating sticks it to the world (theage.com.au)
Just like Keating - I suspect the OP is old - and living in the 20th century.
This is an eminently interesting article by Stan Grant. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-11-21/us-china-power-is-war-inevitable-thucydides/100633448

Unfortunately, you are the one that's clinging onto the 20th Century and have this delusion that Western hegemony is going to last forever - it ain't and we are seeing it's decline now because it's eating itself and stlll playing with itself.
If you can bare it, read this: https://www.michaelwest.com.au/obno...s-herald-and-age-coverage-of-his-china-views/
No, I won't calm down at fools who go off spouting all sorts of s**t because they have absolutely no ides what the f**k they are talking about. You and your mate's 19th century imperialist dogma is the type of thing that will destroy our economy and our reputation all over the world but you don't seem to give a f**k about that. All you are interested in is pushing the case for China bad, Australia/USA good, the same type of simplistic s**t that holds us back from resuming our place as a respected country the world over.Can you calm down?
Where talking about Australia asean and China - and you're jumping the shark accusing others of yearning for Western hegemony.
You are the OP and have put all your chips in Keating's corner, whatever you think of hartcher he uses geopolitical facts that rebukes yours and Keatings position.
Stan grant wrote an article that claims white people invented racism. He runs a program on woke ABC who are giving us a real insight of china and Chinese, - after their state run media had gone rogue and claimed we were dog sh*t at the bottom of their shoe They need to protect their world view and stans that the whites are the bad guys. If it was a white nation behaving like.china such a program on the abc would be utterly offensive.
I know people very high up in the ccp - im going to be fine - but as a nation if thats what they think of us then thats a big wake up call, let's make more allies in the asean region is my position.
Oh and take a valium would you, you're rants are showing signs of someone who needs the CATT team called in.
PS why would a Paul Keating article be hard reading for me - I'm a big fan of him - he was a visionary and he's absolutely right that Asia is our bread and butter - but the World has gone in a different direction since 1995 and so has politics in Australia. You're very much a member of the 'progressive left - obsessed by identity politics.
Some hard reading and self reflection for you.

hahahahaha, that's quit funny; I thought the same too! hahahahahaaStan read a book on ancient Greece during lockdown.
Thats the way, Dutton raises concerns felt by many in response to Xis childish tantrums and aggression and since you cant challenge the facts you call racist. I wonder what the unarmed Indian soldiers murdered at Xi's command, the Philippines fisherman whose waters have been stolen by force, the Japanese who Xis propaganda machine has threatened to nuke or the peaceful Taiwanese he has threatened to kill in their millions think.Yeah, she needed to be like Dutton: "Kill those slant eyes! Let's go to war!!".
Plenty of Afghans and Iraqis might giggle behind their hands when we in the west talk of Chinese tyranny. Difference between us and the Chinese are our Xis are still wannabe, you don't think the likes of Dutton look at him with more than a little envy.Thats the way, Dutton raises concerns felt by many in response to Xis childish tantrums and aggression and since you cant challenge the facts you call racist.

We certainly are not innocent ourselves but does past behaviour by other nations excuse aggresssion and abhorrent breaches of human rights against tens of millions now? Although everyone including Hitler pails in comparison to the 90.millionPlenty of Afghans and Iraqis might giggle behind their hands when we in the west talk of Chinese tyranny. Difference between us and the Chinese are our Xis are still wannabe, you don't think the likes of Dutton look at him with more than a little envy.

You genuinely relish putting people into boxes to avoid listening to them.Can you calm down?

Where did I say I want a war? We just need to call out bad behaviour and make it clear we oppose any attack on peaceful Taiwan.How do we win this war you want?

No, I don't. I've had a crack at Northalives before when I felt he was out of line.
You said this:
... which is pretty low. You're openly asking another person if they're disabled because they disagree with you angrily.
Not to mention, you've pigeon-holed, demonized and abused me before. Do you think you could stop so wildly throwing accusations around as though there was a sale of strawmen at your house?
