Really going out of their way to avoid saying china is trying to fuck us.
If it isn’t the CCP trying to corrupt our Labour politicians, it is the FSB and Russian Mafia successfully corrupting our LNP politicians.
CIA?
Thats a given we are just an american vassal state.
But they have democracy and freedom, that curse our delusion?
If half of their power structures have their way, they won’t have democracy by the end of the year…
Democracy the tyranny of the majority?
I doubt the russians are fucking with us they are too preocupied with europe and america.
And we are militarily and culturally tied to both. Fucking with us is part of their job of fucking with europe and america.
Military tied to American. Economic tied China.
When shove comes to push Australia will give up economic for security!
I would guess because it is not just them. I would not be shocked if there were at least a dozen intelligence agencies around the world with information sources in the government.
