In this context the Australian people voted for an administration that would no longer "co-operate" with the USA's geopolitical aims, they "bucked"/rejected the agenda. The USA responded by pressing those in power to create a constitutional crisis and replace the administration.

I guess my point is that America doesn't engage in the same tactics as China does in regards to Taiwan, or that hemisphere, probably because of distance. The USA favors regime change over making a new colony.

That would be dumb. Taiwan is a better asset if they have an independent government that's on the same page geopolitically. Australia bucked the USA's geopolitical agenda, and they got couped.

Wild how these protests erodes support for Palestine while also hurting Kamala because it garners support for Palestine.

Why do you think their protest is actually changing hearts and minds?

If your religion tells you to be an asshole to kids, find a new religion. Weird how there are many Christians who don't have this problem, almost like this is not how normal people act but we have an asshole looking for an excuse 🧐
