Instead they are being hired by NZ first, ACT and National.

The question is what are we going to do about it?

Too late for that. NZ First, ACT and National are hiring these people to advise them. Why do you think this dude is here? Why is he on television sitting across an compliant Jack Tame who isn’t challenging him?

What was wrong with libre?

She can still speak publicly and debate. Nobody is taking that away from her. We are denying her entry into our country because she lacks the moral tests we have for entry into the country. We have every right to limit who enters the country. Nobody has a god given right to come to New Zealand and speak. That’s just not a right.

Please add water and power to that list.

Why handicap yourself when entering a fight? Do both, do more things as well.

Also we can’t pressure any of the platforms to platform anybody. At least we can put a little pressure to deplatform.

By refusing to use all the weapons at your disposal you are making sure the fascists win.

It’s for sale outside the USA which is ironic given all the lip service that shithole country gives to free speech.

Linking would require the viewer to set up an account, log in and then pay to see the images.

It seems pretty cut and dried. This person was distributing copyrighted material as revenge porn in order to bully and harm somebody.

She violated copyright law, terms of service of onlyfans and cyber bullying laws.

The problem is that NZ is too conservative of a nation to think outside the box of extractive industries and tourism. For a little while there people were trying to build a tech industry but that seems to have fizzled out.

We desperately need stop thinking about packing plant and animal matter into shipping containers and trying to sell them overseas. Bits are much easier and cheaper to ship. We need to shift our economy to one based on intellectual property ASAP or we are going to continue to suffer from deprivation.

So many options. Why not hand the contract to the local Marae? There is one near your school and they are used to feeding crowds of people. Why not use those camping meals? They can be stored and rehydrated with just hot water? Both would be better options than what they are doing now.

I agree. If they were useless they would cause less destruction.

The only way it will get diluted is if the press puts it out front and the public get outraged.

So what I am saying is slim chance of that happening.

That’s weird. The first one works just fine for me.

The first paragraph on that page says

“The coalition Government has agreed to pass a Regulatory Standards Bill, proposed by the ACT Party, which will further tilt the political playing field to advantage vested interests.”

So yea it’s a done deal even though it’s not even though the draft hasn’t been submitted. They used the treaty bill as a distraction to push this one through. Well planned and executed by David Seymour. He knows how to play this game.

I generally agree with building up rather than out. That’s what they do in the rest of the world. Unfortunately kiwis seem to be allergic to living in apartments.

You could easily be describing most farm dogs. I think dogs having a small run and a kennel, where they spend most of there time, and getting to go for regular runs is just fine.

I don’t. I would never treat my dog this way. Dogs are pack animals, they don’t like being alone. Dogs need to pee and poop and won’t do it in the kennel so they have to hold it for hours before they are let out. Dogs need mental stimulation and if left alone in a cage long enough will start gnawing on the wire and ruin their teeth.

I would never leave my dog alone more than a couple of hours and even then I leave him inside the house where he can roam around and play with his toys if he wants.

BTW I also think it’s disgusting how pigs are treated especially the ones kept in farrowing crates. Pigs are intelligent creatures why not let them have a decent life before you kill them in their youth.

I have seen farm dogs that didn’t have large area to roam. As I said they spend any time not working in a kennel with a meter of run maybe two if they are lucky. I have also seen pets in similar conditions where the owners go to work and are gone all day while the dog is in the kennel.

Sad.

What was the point of pushing the bill in the first place especially after the PM said it was DOA?

The point was to move the overton window. You take the loss but you move the country closer to the racist future you envision.

This is the same reason people made submissions. They don’t want to move the overton window and they want to fight at every step of the way because moving even one step in the direction that David Seymour wants to move the country is harmful to people.

If we don’t fight now it will send a signal to the white supremacist that the field has been cleared for them, that the next time they will succeed.
