I dont object to people being wealthy, owning a $10m holiday home

I object top them abusing their wealth so they contribute less

I object to them abusing their power so they get an ever larger slice rather than helping everyone else

The rest of us dont pull this kind of bs

don't forget that David Seymour is the only MP in the last decade who has openly implied he wanted a Ministry bombed
When you see David Seymour hand-wringing about political violence today, don't forget he called an opposition MP "a menace to freedom" and she received so many threats afterwards that she was provided with an extra security detail

Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory?

Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or “continue his work.”

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

Let’s make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. — Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life.

The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

The funniest thing about this was the guy from the Employers & Manufacturers Association on Morning Report saying they weren't focused on removing existing entitlements, and while sick leave entitlements have doubled, actual use has only risen from just under 5 to just over 6 days per year
the commitment to being a horrible government is almost admirable.

On one hand I'd love to see Aucklanders gather to protest outside Destiny Church about their hateful shit.

On the other hand those assholes are clearly just waiting for the opportunity to get into a fight. There's clearly many there who'd love nothing more.

Destiny Church know full well that they're terrorising a room full of children. They don't care. Can we finally start calling it what it is? www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

Around 30 adults and young children had to be barricaded into a room in a library in West Auckland this afternoon, when a group linked to Destiny Church tried to drown out a Pride Festival Event.

When whānau and tamariki are having to hide behind locked doors while a crowd tries to break them down you have to stop calling it a difference of opinion you shouldn't do anything about.

Two attacks, using force (people were injured at the library, "breaking through" police barricades here), against the queer community of Auckland in one day by Destiny.

We are owed an explanation as to why there are thus far zero arrests. There may BE a good explanation, but if so we are owed it.

This is the second Destiny church story today filled with violence and in which Tamaki gets several paragraphs to spout his venom.

Democracy dies in darkness. National are shoving Bill's through under urgency, limiting select committee input, and as we saw over the summer, limiting the opportunity for public submissions. They've also fired science advisors and not filled the PM's science advisor role.

The reveal that Auror provides police with direct access to their customer data without warrants or review procedures shows how supermarkets and big box retailers are leading a shift towards monitoring every customer as a potential criminal.

knowledge is power. anti-intellectualism everywhere and always feeds the flames of fascism.
Homan went on CNN to complain that ICE’s attempts to arrest Chicagoans has been hampered by the people’s knowledge of policy—largely because of the city’s “Know Your Rights” campaign. Fascists rely on your compliance. On your ignorance. They depend upon your fear.

Absolutely no one should come to the US for the next four years if they can help it, for anything. Cons, weddings, vacations, etc. The danger is in the wild unpredictability of the federal government and getting in when federal agencies at our borders have been given the all clear for bigotry.
so hey, not to be That Guy, but remember how SFF fans called for a boycott of Chengdu Worldcon on the basis of the CCP’s actions in Xinjiang and China potentially not being safe for certain authors? are we going to have a similar discussion about Seattle Worldcon given the circumstances, or -?

The EO defines biological male and female by the size of the reproductive cell each produces. But the fetus is asexual at conception. Bipotential (sexually indeterminate) gonads start to form the 5th week after fertilization, and both male and female ducts form, regardless of X or Y chromosomes.

I've seen some people bitching about the colour gradient in Wicked, comparing it to the technicolour of the original film. I haven't seen whether John Chu or anyone else involved has addressed it but the colour choice seems so obvious???
