How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.
DPMC releases Christopher Luxon's new portrait...
This one is like the Punxsutawney Phil for Labour leaders.... the electorate has seen it's shadow.... 3 more years of Hipkins
It's been interesting to see the NZME photo editors choosing the least flattering photos of Luxon in recent months. Last year they would select 'man of the people', 'man at work', 'man thinking deeply', etc
I think that's a little unfair. She is a top tier fascist cosplayer.
Kind of surprised that the net approval rating froms Green voters isn't -100%. While -56% is really bad it still means that some Green voters thought he was doing a good job.
Just imagine his comments if he was brown or a woman or both. Facebook is pretty toxic at the best of times, maybe he should stop posting inane, inauthentic shit or maybe he should follow Hootonβs advice (I canβt believe I am saying that).
I would hope that Labour would have learnt from Kamala Harrisβ loss to an unelectable candidate. Chippy has had every opportunity to give us reasons to vote for him but IMO he has fumbled them almost every time. The only option is to shift the Overton Window and vote further left.
It does beg the question should we let tech bros, albeit homegrown ones, access to retail banking in NZ? My knee jerk reaction is no, but hell, it canβt be any worse than being reimed by Aussie bankers. We might even get better financial services. products.
Looks like it's escalating. Springs kids are generally pretty chill (both my kids went there) and not particularly agro. I wonder what set this off?
Chloe Swarbrick perfectly defined Nationalβs obsession with roads by calling them Roads of National Party Significance.
Thereβs nothing a left wing government excels at is making the wrong choice for the right reason.
I fear that if Labour holds the treasury benches they will preserve the stupidest ideas of this government in the name of non partisanship and reject any good policies - though making policy plural feels overly optimistic.
Post your favorite Lord of the Rings character. Wrong answers only.
It feels so wrong liking this post.
How many households are there in NZβ¦ even if itβs 3m thatβs only $90m at the top end. Whereβs the rest coming from?
NEW ON EXIT FROM AFFCO: Jeffery Epstein and Lawrence Kraussβ planned (but cancelled) trip to New Zealand in 2010, Kraussβ attempts at a Epstein-funded institute at Otago Uni, and a wider discussion on Epstein, Aotearoa, and why elites keep flocking here www.exitfromaffco.com/p/epsteins-p...
Kind of. After we sing, the All Blacks do a haka and then they play. I can miss the anthem but never the haka.
Argentinaβs is pretty intense. Starts with a long instrumental and finishes with a passionate βOr let us swear with glory to dieβ x4.
NZβs was a bit of a dirge until 1999 when we started singing the first half in te reo (MΔori)
We should ask @dieworkwear.bsky.social for his opinion on our wealthy and sorted PM. From T Shirts over dress shirts to wearing blue suits to funerals heβs a case study in fashion faux pas.
Why do they always look like they have eyeliner on?
Wait? RNZ does news? I thought they read out PRs and syndicated stories from regime* approved outlets.
*regime may change depending on storyline.
Yeah. And not wanting to sound like a whiny old gen xer but that was what we strove for. The internet homogenized everything⦠and Adobe made it harder to not conform.
Ditto. But find me coded in Zapf Dingbats on a 90s rave flyer with a Kaiβs Powertools illustration.
Itβs not. Half the world maps donβt have it on them.
