In communist China they jail anyone that is exposing the state of commiting war crimes
But he only exposed some specific soldiers right?(not the state) And why should china be the reference?
Carl marks is being sarcastic. A common anti-communist talking point is saying [communist country] is bad because they jail political dissidents when the west is just as willing
His comment missed this
He exposed the state by revealing info they covered it up.

McBride, 60, admits he gave troves of document to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), saying he was concerned about the attitudes of commanders and what he then thought was the “over-investigation” of troops, the court heard.
But instead the information he provided underpinned a series of reports in 2017 called The Afghan Files, which gave unprecedented insight into the operations of Australia’s elite special forces in Afghanistan, and contained allegations of war crimes.
It seems he wasn’t whistleblowing to expose the war crimes but because he felt troops were beyond overinvestigated!
That is absolutely fucking hilarious!

He was concerned that a couple grunts were going to get scapegoated for what a ton of absolute monsters were doing. Like Ben Roberts-Smith—decorated war hero who walks free today—uh, I need to spoiler/content warning this gorefest, said:
CW: gore, murder, what the fuck
“I shot that removed in the head. [witness name redacted] told me not to kill anyone on the last job. So I pulled out my 9mm, shot the removed in the side of the head, blew his brains out. It was the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.”
Yeah, that guy gets to walk free and get rich off public speaking engagements. McBride, though! Exposing that evil is malfeasance and needs to be PUNISHED!
You dome some kids for fun, so you can jerk off to it later? Victoria’s Cross material, national hero. Tell the public about it? CRIMINAL.
He was a defense lawyer for a couple of soldiers tried for war crimes, he did the leak because he was annoyed the grunts were being charged, but their officers who ordered/let the war crimes happen only saw court as a witness for the prosecution
I have also read that his initial motivation was that of some soldiers being unfairly targeted. This however would only be problematic if one equates soldiers with war criminals. Source friendlyjordies https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdYYIVoCvsM Roughly around 17th minute
australia really is a journalist hellhole. Also may I ask how is this hilarious? It seems to me that you take poor sources and draw brainless conclusions just as intended. But trying to make whistleblowers seem bad is always very interesting
I don’t know anything about this case, but friendlyjordies is literally claiming that the woke lefties are trying to throw this man in prison for opposing women’s inclusion in the armed services and that they’re too busy reporting on new genders to report on war crimes. Like that is literally what he is saying. There has got to be a better investigation on this.

He’s been outspokenly against the war against Afghanistan if you watch Boy Boy’s video and was simply opposing what he thought was the scapegoating of troops to hide the crimes of others. Maybe what you’re saying is hilarious because it’s not true.
