Too bad I know the kind of anti-China drivel Australia (deputy sheriff of NATO) pushes out with 60 Minutes and via their Murdoch media network, and surely enough you are not convincing me with Lithuania, the country that thinks Taiwan is a country, and the same country whose military lied about Xiaomi spying a couple years ago on behest of US government.

I made a mistake, not in anything I said but in assuming you were willing and able to discuss this in good faith.

My mistake was giving you the benefit of doubt that you might not have a pro-NATO pro-capitalist xenophobic agenda.
