Cartoon posted:I have read plenty about China and the South China Sea. I have already agreed that China are being poo poo heads. I again ask you. Why do we have to choose between the US and China? And if we did...The US are absolutely worse on any metric than China (Iraq, Panama, Cuba, I could literally go on for pages) The US are all about shoot first and ask questions later. The US are using (And therefore magnifying) China's activities in the region (Which incidently is at least close to China) as a way to project their already considerable influence in the region. Call me paranoid but the US getting involved isn't likely to lead to hugs and puppies. China are poo poo heads, the US are poo poo lords by standing behind either one of them we are making our selves poo poo heads/lords by proxy. How about we don't and instead encourage dialogue through the available forums. A dialogue we can not honestly enter into while we are a proxy poo poo head/lord. extremely lomarf

please do not mischaracterise my illustrious shitposting career My main objection is to what I perceive (perhaps incorrectly) as a 'US are jerks so China should be allowed to be jerks as well' equivocation. US foreign policy is an utter nightmare and will become worse when Hillary is elected next year, but that doesn't mean every position they take is worthy of scorn by association. The Iranian negotiations, for example, were a huge success, and my (admittedly ill-informed) understanding of the South China Sea tensions is that the US is on the side of reason. There are definitely issues to be argued with tactics employed by the US on this issue but the strategy is fairly sound, I feel. now look what you've made me done I've gone and effort posted, gently caress

I can't comment about the likelihood of China getting its way because I don't know much about the current version environment, but I think the current strategy of putting up as much resistance as possible both diplomatically and militarily (in the form of free navigation excercises etc) is the best option available. The main objection I raise is that it's not the US trying to tell China what it can't do; it's regional nations telling China they won't stand for its retaliatory nationalism, with the backing of the US. The US is obviously driven by self-interest in this case but so is literally every nation involved, that's not so much a fault as the reality of geopolitics.

reading comments about the greens is truly insightful 'The greens are just the LNP lite!! They keep voting for LNP bills!' 'Labor votes with the LNP 6 times as much as the greens' 'Exactly!! If the greens stop siding with the LNP I'll go back to Labor!!' 'The greens are crazy if they think Labor will enter a coalition with them again!!' 'What if a minority government is elected?' 'Well obviously the greens will have to enter a coalition with Labor!!' these people are actually retarded

So with all the LNP-GREEN PREFERENCE DEAL goings on, there's one thing that gets me: the LNP can preference the greens first in every seat if it thinks that'll give it a better result than otherwise, but that's no indication that a deal with the greens has actually been struck? As far as I can tell the only evidence a LNP-Green deal is being bargained is that THE GREENS VOTED WITH THE LNP TO CHANGE THE SENATE VOTING LAWS (the greens voted for a change they'd always supported, it's a scandal) and a "senior Labor negotiator" saying the Greens have taken Victoria off the table in ALP-Green negotiations. Am I missing some key piece of evidence here?

But I mean is that truism really all that applicable these days? Labor is still really poo poo on refugee policy and they're certainly not going to usher in full communism now, but this election they've announced some pretty hefty policies that differentiate them from the Libs; lifting the Medicare rebate freeze, negative gearing reform, schools funding, an emissions trading scheme - they're definitely a far cry from perfect but they're doing a pretty good job of differentiating themselves in my view.
