Gee you've really gone down that delusional persecuted cis white male rabbit hole haven't you.
Foam off about free speech but can't talk about addressing racism because that's racist. Can't bring up colonisation because that's somehow patronising. There's so much studies, research & data out there about colonisation and how it's effects on Maori today. I get that media headlines make you think that taking steps to make that right is bad for you, but that's not reality. Here's our Prime Minister being interviewed about it: https://twitter.com/TeAoWithMOANA/st...32537605259264 (trigger warning, it's not how Australia does it)

was gonna post something snarky but right now I'm sitting next to my Ministers of Health and Aboriginal Affairs and Attorney-General and their staffers with a bunch of angry black activists in a meeting about the impact of systemic racism on health outcomes for First Nations communities and if some Cabinet Minister turns and asks me for my thoughts I don't want brain to still be in sarcastic ab@nzg mode and just launch in with something like "LOL YOU FUCKS COLONISATION IS THAT EVEN A THING oh shit wrong audience"

Okay, so you're up to 1840. Let us know when you've caught up on the rest of NZ's history.

HENCE WHY FOREVER ALONE

Oh look, the WEF at it again with our Prime Minister.
Ha ha, DrTiTus is crazy. Oh wait, there it is on the news with our soft cock PM going to see some m0f0 we didn't vote for telling him what to do, then the Chinese Communist leader who will also tell him what to do. It's not my children or grandchildren I'm worried about. It's not my future. But if you want to leave something better than a fucking photo album to your kids, you better wake up.

I think this is New Zealand too. Not to the same extreme or precisely the same approach. But the dynamic is similar between our two dominant parties:
Jon Stewart on the GOP

Shit is starting to kick off in Africa. Again, I guess. It sounds like Al-Qaeda is facing off against Wagner in Niger.
There is definitely protesting at Western bases in Niger with considerable presence of Russian flags. I have to wonder what would be going on right now if Russia had taken Ukraine and Putin was in a position to fully leverage grain supplies to the region.

If an election were held today, National + ACT would comfortably form government.

The key thing I take away from that poll is some record high interest in parties outside of the usual two. Act on 13% and Greens on 12%. Those are record highs.

Somewhere someone working for National's election strategy figured out the sense of promoting the idea that there's no much difference between the two main parties. That no calamity will unfold for anyone if the government changes. I've keep seeing that message, framed in various ways.

I am not clued up on Aussie politics much. Is this common for the referrendum.
1 question, 1 answer box. You need to write YES or NO. But they will accept a tick for yes, but if you put a cross then it doesn't count. WTF? Would it not be easier to have 2 boxes. A yes box and a no box???? Yes, it appears to be a thing https://www.theguardian.com/australi...not-be-counted Last edited by blynk : 25th August 2023 at 17:07. |

It's a perfect Internet echo chamber lesson. To someone in the US East Coast Ivy-League-uni-educated media bubble, this is the most important thing in the world. No-one else really cares, but all those people determine what we see and hear.

Wellington doctors told to stop referring women to specialists unless their condition is urgent
Hipkins can keep saying there's no healthcare crisis because any fix Luxon is going to suggest will ultimately involve cut backs and freezes. Anyone concerned about their wellbeing in New Zealand should have private health insurance.

Yeah, not any better overseas unless you're moving to somewhere like Norway.

Moving to Oz when I did was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I miss the fuck out of NZ and I love being a Kiwi, but I'm glad my kids are growing up here.

Yep, other than leaving family and some close friends behind, the only thing I regret about moving here is that I didn't do it sooner. Applied for dual citizenship and got approved about a month ago, just waiting on the ceremony.
Still love going down to Nelson to visit family, glad they're not in Auckland any more. |

Those leaving NZ leave for somewhere where their privilege counts more.
Because there are few places to live that are better for everyone. But if we were to start measuring QoL for the richest, we'd see different conclusions. So if you've got loads of cash and want to live with a degree of impunity (such as having to deal with the consequences of local deprivation, so you can keep your money), there are definitely better places for you to live than New Zealand.
