The nurses on the picket line in Hamilton’s CBD just copped a barrage of abuse from a young man.
Their responses
“Is he ok”
“Is anyone with him”
“Poor fellow is really escalated”
“Is anyone here familiar with him?”
Just absolute empathy and no fear for thier own safety

I have been saying this for something like 15 years and I am so tired, folks: the tactics. Of the right. Don't work. For the left. Because their politics are divisive and anti-community. Ours aren't.
They win when politics is toxic and vicious. We win by building solidarity.

Maybe you could start talking about the evidenced policies that reduce the likelihood of this happening RNZ. Things like:
Guaranteeing all a living incomes
Taxing the wealthy more so more money can be given to things like fully funded healthcare
Rent control
Increasing home ownership
Pay equity
