Regional existential abatement for young Australia

Whilst I agree with Patience’s expression of dismay against racism towards Chinese emanating from the Murdochracy and other right leaning bodies, I must stress the importance of tackling the root of the issue head on.
The people’s Chinese Revolution led to the breakaway of Taiwan as forced by the nationalist Kuomintang, who the US backed (now, not so much for ‘democracy’, unless you’ve seen pigs fly, but for microprocessors), and Australia continues to militarily align with the US. China has expressly stated they want Taiwan back under the Chinese umbrella and America aggressively defends their capitalist partner.
Our military alignment with the US and the growing regional prowess of China, has led us to become piggy in the middle. What is truly needed is a direct conversation with the US, who firmly believe that we will back them up if they blow a gasket. China is not a direct threat to us, however, we cannot have this conversation with the US if the decision is made by these larger powers to go to war. The conversation needs to be had now with the US to abate this existential threat, before it is too late for younger Australians.
