We could all be armed to the teeth and skilled up to Chuck Norris. Might buy us another 20 minutes or so.
I’m joking of course. Would’nt buy us anything.
We will have allready surrendered as the highly preferable option. By the time mr chinaman has his boots on the ground and knocking at your front door. Feel free to resist. Probably just get your house and everyone it microwaved or something.
I don’t see mr chinaman on the ground if he’s determined the local population to be a threat though. Probably opt to sterilise the place first remotely with drones and God only knows what else AI clean up bots.
Clay target shotgun is probably your best investment skill set. When you can knock out a swarm of clays moving at much higher speeds than your average clay thrower, with far less predictable trajectories. Then you are ready for the fight.
I don’t see it happening in the immediate future though. ATM they are just studying us, learning everything, getting it into digital format.
When AI catches up to mechanical design, which it will. Then theres nothing on earth, no army it can’t defeat. It will be far more intelligent than humans. And as such it will be self aware and fully autonomous. All they have to do is insert the ccp chip. Game over.
Nuclear weapons, obsolete. Will be more of a risk than a deterrent.
That’s the arms race today. Who will get there first. Current contenders are only china vs japan.
But for certain, our tiny bogan brains won’t be any match for it.
But what the hell, arm us all to the teeth anyway. I’m all for it

Good job of misdirection there. An excellent demonstration of the relentless and enduring power of propaganda over clear thinking.
The reality is Australia only has one serious potential aggressor.
One that our obsequious servility to the US may in the long run be of no assistance while having been an unnecessary constraint and burden.
One that desperately desires Lebensraum.
Work that one out for yourself.

It's one thing to be a Patriot, it's another to be delusional.
Let's say a motivated and not too distant aggressor with possibly a population 10 times or greater than that of Australia and with adequate logistics for the task decides on whatever pretext that it is going to occupy the north western portion of Australia and is able to secure the non intervention (or collusion) of our great protector.
Just how quickly and forcefully do you think Australia would be able to have any impact on the permanence of that situation.
Thus having established a substantial base, what further aspirations might that aggressor be tempted to pursue and at what speed?
How much help might the aggressor get from fifth columnists in the remaining part of Australia.?

Curious comments there Patriot.
Time travel is a reality but only in one direction and only at one rate.
Also are you inferring that maybe Australia should be entering into defence alliances with other countries for protection if the US is our only feasible invader.
Larry wrote:Indonesia and China would be able to do it quite easily. They both have the assets to take out our critical infrastructure which we are very reliant upon with no redundancy. They also have the number of people that could put boots on the ground fully equipped with the latest hardware and with overwhelming odds in their favor.
