@ELonMuskNewssX But it doesn’t.

@Ausbobsmit @peterk0578 For very little data. 139/month for reasonable plan. Add 599/unit and 545 for install. Do the math over 20 years, or even 10 years and see the difference.

@Ausbobsmit @Dabatsau It is indeed what Starlink says. And the monthly run cost of Starlink is prohibitive - much dearer for end user than nbn and not as reliable.

@catturd2 Rubbish. She wasn’t hospitalised in a serious condition. You don’t know what you are talking about. Shut up.

@Tim_Pun_Oh @PRMcNultyART @Ausbobsmit Yes. Not just misleading - it’s out and out lying. Can’t believe there are so many Australians who believe this crap! Talk about wasted outrage over complete lies.

@RebekkaAdams198 @PopilotRob @The_X_Tweets @GeorgePapa19 lol. Love how you just get offensive and resort to name calling when your weak argument runs out . Ps, Australia has a free trade agreement with us. No tariffs so no, I’ve never said ‘us tariffs are bad, Aus tariffs are good”. That would be nonsensical. Bye.

@RebekkaAdams198 @PopilotRob @The_X_Tweets @GeorgePapa19 Good one. Clever response.

@RebekkaAdams198 @PopilotRob @The_X_Tweets @GeorgePapa19 No that’s also not true. Australia accepts frozen us beef, just not fresh beef. And that’s because of the us at processes, nothing to do with trade exclusion (if it was, we would accept frozen disease free bedf would we?)

[pats de vries @de_pats]

@RebekkaAdams198 @PopilotRob @The_X_Tweets @GeorgePapa19 No that’s not true. $3b of Aussie lean beef is imported, but it’s tariffed now by us for some reason, even though there are no reciprocal tariffs. That’s to help US make their burgers leaner (or else you could simply use your own beef if you had it). Must be something else.

[pats de vries @de_pats]

@RebekkaAdams198 @PopilotRob @The_X_Tweets @GeorgePapa19 Nah, the same could be said for a whole lot of things that US imports. Must be something else.

[pats de vries @de_pats]

@RebekkaAdams198 @PopilotRob @The_X_Tweets @GeorgePapa19 But still far more than some other countries hit with high tariffs. Can you think of any reason that they aren’t applied to Russia? It’s obviously not a scale issue. What else?

[pats de vries @de_pats]

@RebekkaAdams198 @PopilotRob @The_X_Tweets @GeorgePapa19 $3.5bil from Russia last year. What blanket?

[pats de vries @de_pats]

@ImranDanka @SWalkerTTU @RonFilipkowski you don’t have to look very far at all on x to see that the numbers are not tariffs. Are you looking? Have you thought to google it? Grok it. Use Australian as an example if you like. Free trade agreement, no tariffs and still hit 10%. Economic bullying to get a desired outcome

@mimraankhaan @realdogeusa Australian beef is lean (and healthy). Almost all meat from Aus imported to US is used to mix with fatty unhealthy US meat to make burgers. Almost all. That’s how fatty US beef is. Ughh.

[pats de vries @de_pats]

@vihutchref @Cryptov1lle @realdogeusa Australia has a trade deficit with US. However, that may change as Australians stop buying US products. It’s happening already. Aust charges no tariffs, but won’t import us beef a/ because it doesn’t need to and b/ because us beef has diseases that don’t exist in Australia.

[pats de vries @de_pats]

@xie_eric @PerSaturno @GildasMcmurty @PawlowskiMario Nah, that’s so wrong. Vat is a tax on everyone, not just imports so not a tariff. It’s the same as the US sales tax - do you call that a tariff? If so, it’s not in the charts. The ‘tariff’ numbers are not real - there is plenty of evidence to prove that if you just looked.

[pats de vries @de_pats]

@mail_american @briantylercohen But a lot more than some other countries that have tariffs imposed.. even the penguin island that exports nothing has a higher tariff. Go figure.

@missmenace101 @IamDuffMan @RobynBaker1218 @RavenZech2 Very gullible aren’t they? They talk a lot about main stream media narratives but fall for the biggest bull shite ever 😂🤣

[pats de vries @de_pats]

@RobynBaker1218 @TerryAn89027489 @RavenZech2 Australia does not charge tariffs to US. We have a free trade agreement. Equal is equal 0 = 0. Cope.
