I appreciate that a lot of people who haven't spent a long time up close in politics "can't see them coming" This guy - like MCM, Latham, Frydenberg etc - you could see coming from a mile away. Threatening Australia's Ukraine community by weilding his little political peenie is just horseshit

It's unclear to me what concrete form of actual support the Greens are providing to Ukraine, that criticism puts at risk. Also, the idea that support for Ukraine is dependent on the Ukrainian community in Australia being sufficiently grateful to the Greens seems pretty wild.

It's literally the same as it is now, except the anti war party doesn't want to profit from weapons sales whilst the ALP has nothing to sell to Ukraine other than giving away the bushmasters and old M1A1s

Think through what you're saying. Donating military assets doesn't actually profit the military industrial complex anymore than selling your Kia profits Kia. But! Giving money to Ukraine, which they then use to buy those same weapons with, does profit those corps. Military aid kills profits.
