That's a minority. From what I've seen, the vast majority of Aussies are sheep, happy to be abused by their government and manipulated by corporations and propaganda (take your pick which). It's just another fractured society, with apathetic masses turning away from the real world and living in their own bubbles of discontent.
Because that is ever going to happen in Australia?

Oh, I agree. I'm just paraphrasing JD Vance.
The threat that I worry the most about vis-a-vis the USA it's not russia, it's not china, it's not any other external actor. And what I worry about is the threat from within. The retreat of the USA from some of its most fundamental values. Values shared with Europe. In washington, and across the USA, free speech, I fear, is in retreat.
Slightly less of a Tosser with a Toyesla.

If it happens and Ukraine and its true allies use the time wisely to prepare for the worst case, then the worst case might not be so bad.
Ukraine isn't recovering much territory militarily anytime soon, short of a black swan event. So diplomacy and putin's "retirement" will be the way.
trump will screw it up with premature sanctions relief though.
Wait ... didn't that happen in a limited fashion a few weeks back?
And nowadays, it would be done via executive order. "Not our fault, just following orders". Just like the private satellite image company.
Starlink is a risk that needs mitigations.
Pay tribute, and we won't kick you in the balls ... for a short period of time before we do ... and then repeatedly.
Caesar only got popularised as a tyrant after his death. Trumpy-boy is getting ahead of himself.
