Australia and my own country of Canada seem to be acting like the two pit-bulls of the West's increasing aggression toward China (Canada expelling a Chinese diplomat in the past days on flimsy fabricated evidence to add to its general bad-faith relationship). China will remember, and an Australia that is so heavily dependent upon resource exports and selling its educational institutes to foreign students will learn to regret their racist cravenness to the US. Australian and Canadian officials and academics are also central to the Xinjiang disinformation campaign.
