You said she was your step mother in response to my use of the term white-prog. You're a white-prog, the bogan equivalent of a bernie supporter.

Still have no idea what a white prog is, don't really care anymore as your all over the place.
To clarify. Australia's position in regard to China is different than Americas. As it would be considering our trade and tourism. As it should be as we live close to each other.
You can like that or not, it doesn't change that fact.

Our alliance with America is strong, as it has been since the late 40s. We may not be huge trading partners with you due to distance and our min wages. America has influenced every part of our every day lives. Movies, cars, TV, music, food, politics even sport with Basketball having a national league here. Same Media mogul in Murdock (Scum bag as Keating used to call him) pulling the strings.
America HAS military base's quiet a few, some not manned like runways that can be fully operational in a short time. (Amazing how many are called Seismic workers/bases-....) You can call them permanent or on tour or on roster or anything you like. They are here. China does not.
You can like that or not, but it doesn't change that fact.

Last thing Australia wants or needs is a US Vs China war. Your bases make us a huge legitimate target and your bases could well be used to attack China without our consent. The economic collapse Australia would suffer would be significant.

My views line up with previous supplied quotes and interviews from ex Prime ministers of Australia (Gillard and Keating) and I would assume every Prime minister from the 90's on.

There ya go, post away and have the last word then. Have a great day.

Themselves; they advertise their corporate sponsors. I've heard both the Koch brothers foundation and Boeing listed as corperate sponsors on NPR.

You claimed they aren't as liberal as they want you to think. What is your evidence of that?

You claimed they aren't publicly funded but they do indeed take public money.

Trump wants to kill federal funding for PBS and NPR (again); it won’t happen, but it’s still damaging
Framing public media as a partisan issue encourages people to think of it through a political lens instead of as users and consumers.

You are implying they are beholden to the Koch brothers yet they do reporting on them. How are they beholden to them?

Are The Koch Brothers Newly Woke Or A 'Total Joke'?

Same with Boeing.
Boeing Knew About 737 Max Sensor Problem Before Plane Crash In Indonesia

Surely you have some evidence of your claim. Were you just making it up?

Amazing the kind of purity this guy requires when he was once actively involved in getting his money from strangers after letting them prostitute his girlfriend.

Yeah, NPR takes money from Koch and does good things with it. I wonder what Tty did with his money?

He told me to stay in my lane this week which is still cracking me up. He said it in the context of this forum which gives us some insight (methinks) into what this complete goofball thinks of himself. Boy is he impressed. Ever since he joined the knee-jerk Putin propaganda swilling puppet, he has oozed conceit from every one of his unwashed pores. I guess he finally found his special purpose.

You're interrupting his confirmation bias with facts from a local who knows the truth. You really should stop that so he can continue blissfully clinging to his carefully manufactured preconceived notions about your country, in spite of the fact that he doesn't live there.

They can still take some public funding while taking corporate cash. That fact still influences their editorial decisions.

Bottom line: They just don't do hard hitting investigative journalism.

You're welcome to your beliefs; you've made it clear that won't be changing based on anything as irrelevant as facts.

Remember when you were insisting that Bernard is the most popular political figure in the US for like two years straight while you went from being very popular to universally reviled here?

Lucky Luke is the bogan equivalent of you.
