23 years ago, I wrote a book called “Getting to War”, about how gov’ts mobilize public opinion through normative narratives (what I now call Fiat News) before starting a war.

This is how it starts. This is how it always starts.
If you don’t see that self-defense and “we had no choice” narratives of rearmament and military conflict are building in both the US and China, you’re just not paying attention.

As both the US and China beat the war drums louder and louder, no country will be caught in the middle worse than Australia.
