I wish there was a way to distil and widely distribute the core information in this thread, but when the elites control the media platforms, you're pushing shit up hill.

It is so obvious that we're being played, but most of us still fall for it regardless. #nzpol

Another reprehensible headline reads: Politics
'Absolutely laughable': Government ministers take aim at UN over report criticising NZ treatment of Mãori
The report was released by a UN committee focused on race relations

“Never spread the lie in the headline" should be a hard rule of 21st century journalism.

Research shows that repeating lies helps to spread them, and people read headlines more than they read stories. #nzpol

Stuff are no longer a news org. They’re a tabloid joke, copying the shittest bits of the 90s internet in a desperate attempt to drive clicks. Let them die, we’ll all be bet off for it.

The Aboriginals I worked with in remote AU were sanguine about all the deadly creatures. Except hornets, which they said would pursue you & not stop until you were dead. If people who just flick a snake away with a walking stick are afraid, pay attention. Auckland, you need to do everything you can!

Is it just me or has Labour (UK, Dems in US, Aust & NZ) just become the centrist corporate shrills defending morbid wealth, arms trade, US homogeny & occupation

Labour are the umbrella keeping fascism dry enough to flourish

Notice the Pattern: New Zealand’s elite fund policy research institutes that produce “model legislation” and white papers encouraging deregulation, centralised procurement, and flexible labour rules—mirroring the U.S. model‑bill approach.

This situation created by the current NZ coalition. Cutting services that add to the cost of living, sacking heaps govt staff (lying about why) freezing min wages and cancelling govt living wage commitments and changes to employment rules.
The Atlas 2025 fascism playbook.

Tens of billions: Why the bill for planned Roads of National Significance keeps going up Latest estimates put the cost at 23 times that of Dunedin Hospital's rebuild - but why has the bill gone up so much?

Presumably this will lead to cancellation as per the iReX blowout, right?

Unbelievably poor economics and reprehensible choice made by this Govt to stop the transition away from gas and to waste a billion $ on tax breaks for tobacco companies & corporate landlords. And utterly brainless uneconomic proposal to build a gas terminal and import gas. Truly fkn ignorant

It’s inferior in taste and texture to duck and chicken. Frankly it’s pretty crappy meat, and only exists because of ‘tradition’.

US seizure of tanker ‘international piracy’, Venezuela says, as vessel details emerge The ship departed Venezuela around December 2 with about 2 million barrels of heavy crude, roughly half of it belonging to a Cuban state-run oil importer.

These brazen motherfuckers are just openly doing whatever they want.

Imagine the outcry if China did this. This is typical American "foreign policy", anywhere where there's oil is open season.

The US now declares that all visitors to the country must declare all their social media in their visa applications. Anyone critical of Trump faces arrest by ICE, aka Gestapo USA.
Now recon this. The FBI as an office in NZ. NZ has Peter Thiel's Palintir spyware. Thiel is a huge Trump financier.
