I Hate Activists
Just wanted to put it out there... You see people like Minto at every damn event conceivable to man. I reckon they care more about putting themselves out there than the issue... Discuss!

The "professional protester" crowd you mean?

people like minto, yeah. hes just a publicity whore. protesting has its place, but protesting for the sake of it is imo kinda lame, like his protests against that girl in the ASB tennis cup.

I definitely dislike John Minto. Give him a lefty cause and he'll foam at the mouth over it.

Funny, I was specifically thinking of that tennis cup incident. The other one that came to mind was the Hell Pizza 'darky' fiasco. There is a place for activism. But I'd like to see people pick specific issues rather than jump on every damn excuse to be a bearded rebel because then I'd feel they're more genuine about the issue than about being 'the activist guy you all know and love!'. |

Protesting is an important right under freedom of speech. Some protests I agree with (eg anti-apartheid, sea bed & foreshore) some I don't (eg tennis one, trucking, fart-tax). But I'm glad in New Zealand we have this freedom.

Yes, if it wasn't for activists, so many less people would be suffering in the world right now.
This is worthwhile hatred and not retarded. |

People who hate activists are probably some of the most retarded people in the world. Disagree sure, but hate? You're equal to the sum of retardation on a special school bus.

I hate the 'professional' protesters/activists, like your mate Minto.

I used to live next door to Joel Cosgrove (activist-lite from Wgtn who burnt the NZ flag on Anzac day ) - smelly motherfucker didn't really do much with his days apart from smoke buckies out the back and attempt to dump rubbish on our property

ANARCHIST: Political activist, eh? Ah, what's the last thing you blew up?
RICK: Well, I blew up a rubber johnny actually in the union bar. It was hilarious - everybody thought so. [Anarchist puts his arm round Rick's shoulders] ANARCHIST: Yeah. Look, next Tuesday, I'm gonna blow up a Panda in Croydon. RICK: Yer, right on. Bloody zoos, who needs them? ANARCHIST: No, a police car, you terminal wally! RICK: [Nervously] Oh, the - the pigs? ANARCHIST: Bastards RICK: Yeah [Snort] Especially the few bad apples that spoil their otherwise spotless image.
