Policy Bytes: How Australia can be a globalist republic with strong defence forces (as it should be)

So, #Australian government. You're telling me that #China is a foreign power (I agree), but that the #US and #UK, which are further away geographically, less beneficial as trading partners, and have aggressive protectionist, nationalistic governments - are somehow not foreign?

So - sorry. Err. How does that work, exactly? Because to be completely honest, you sound like an IDIOT, #Australian government.

Just saying, as my millennial kids like to put it.

Oh. And apparently, you're saying – or at least inferring by your actions - that the #CPC MSS is a foreign intelligence agency (I agree) but that MI6/CIA/NSA/DGSE/Pentagon/FBI are not foreign? I can see how you might think, given the degree of infiltration into our society and government the CIA and MI6, as agents of foreign influence, have achieved, that they are some kind of local police force. Just FYI - they are ALL foreign intelligence agencies.

Try to keep up.

We are a Commonwealth nation, you say? First: are you an Anglican delusional-megacult monarchist with an imaginary friend? Because if you are, you need to get therapy and psychiatric help. Adults with imaginary omniscient friends are not well, my friend. Not at all.

Moreover - we really need to ditch this Commonwealth nonsense. Let the Brits all go to Portugal. They can come here if they behave and want to do research under the umbrella of our new Australian Republic public university system.

Oh - by the way - Australian government: Do you think Bloody Old Britain wants the extra nukes because of fakery about cyber attacks, or do you think it has more to do with dissuading Commonwealth nations from leaving the Commonwealth and becoming Republics? Probably Russia - right? It might not just be Russia. Can we have a Repulic and democratic and parliamentary control over war powers now please?

Just wondering.

I am a globalist, and a pragmatist, and not terribly nationalistic. However, when it comes to the security of my nation and my children, I am Australian. The Queen of Britain is NOT Australian. MI6, the CIA, Joe Biden, and Mad Mike Pompeo are NOT #Australian.

Globalism and open markets are good, but we should not tolerate Great Britain, the #USA, or any other foreign power or their intelligence agencies influencing our system of government, democracy, industry policies (except by public negotiation), and parliamentarians.

Moreover - in case you had not noticed - the #UK and #USA do a lot of noxious, stupid things, and their governments are infested with delusional, infidelophobic #megacults.

If you want to know how to fund our military to generate defence technology, here is the strategy for you to use. There are options.

1. CAREFULLY negotiate with foreign power China to partner with them on defence and space programs. They offer superior pricing and exchange rates, and their technology is exceptional. Many of their researchers are Han Chinese, who, like Askenazi Jews, have the highest average intelligence levels in the world.

We must simply warn #China that they MUST respect the sovereignty of our republic. If necessary, we can partner with New Zealand to prevent any problems due to the size asymmetry. With any luck NZ will have partnered with us in leaving the Not-Very-Commonwealth.

To be honest, China and its diplomats are much more erudite and polite than our propaganda says. Especially when you don't bully China and interfere with their internal and domestic affairs: like the West have done with #HongKong (which Britain NEVER had ANY right - apart from might-right - to illegally invade in the first place.)

2. Instead, or, preferably at the same time, do this:

• Build more public universities
  

• Make local primary industry billionaires FUND the universities and local military research with appropriate TAXATION. Add taxes on foreign corporations here - especially those from nations with strong currencies like the US (1.34x$AUD), UK (1.85x$AUD), and Europe (1.59x$AUD.)
  

• TAX ALL billionaire foreign corporations, AND billionaire corporations in Australia - especially those involved in digging our primary resources out of holes and flogging it to foreign governments - specifically to PAY for SECONDARY MANUFACTURING and research programs.
  

• Do not allow foreign nationals or dual citizens to own or manage our universities. Chancellors and Vice Chancellors must all be Australian by birth, and must NOT be dual citizens. Just as is the case with parliamentarians. This is NOT anti-globalist. It helps preserve our ability to function pragmatically as a global geopolitical, economic, and geostrategic agent, and protects Australians from illicit and damaging interference (China is globalist, as the US often complains, and yet they do this kind of protection often. So does the US!), while ensuring that university education is accessible to all young Australians.
  

• Repair ties with China and welcome their students and researchers back in our universities as research collaborators and scholars.

Australia can easily manage to find its way around the geopolitical, geostrategic, regional, and economic landscape without interference from Great Britain, the USA, and without any of the bizarre, infidelophobic megacults that pervade, prevail within, and effectively preside over, those faux-democratic nations.
