Nicola Willis makes Ruth Richardson seem like a socialist. I wonder if she even understands being the Treasurer doesn’t mean her job is to accumulate as much treasure as she can for her and her cohorts.

Left(ish) wing parties: we only won 60% of the vote so we must still be mindful of the needs of the other 40%.
Right Wing parties: we got 51% of the vote! Suck it up, losers!!

If God’s only commandment had been: Don’t be a fucking hypocrite, every right winger would be going straight to hell.

AoNZ is being run/ruined by a coterie of ex-lobbyists still working to advance the causes of their backers. From building obsolete roads to imposing draconian rules upon a generation of young queer people.
Nothing they do is for the greater good. None of it even makes sense.
Wish they’d fuck off.

Gotta hand it to the Luxon government. They’re certainly pulling out all stops to be crowned worst, most incompetent and ineffective government of all time. There isn’t a single minister who wouldn’t fit nicely into the Trump cabinet.
Nasty, entitled morons.

Can we get rid of the stock market? What a cesspit of hubris and greed. Surely there’s a better way.

For people who profess to believe God is all knowing, infallible, and works in mysterious unknowable ways, they sure do get angry if you suggest he must then have created trans people for a reason.
Obviously their infallible god fucked up big time with that one. 😱🤣🤣

It’s funny how people who think we should bring back slavery never imagine they could be the slaves. Slaves have not all been black you know?

Peter Thiel’s a really deep thinker, isn’t he? I mean who could argue with his proposition that the anti-Christ and/or Armageddon is on its way because “it’s becoming increasingly difficult to hide your money”.

You’d think part of being a decent parent (not to mention a basic human being) would be NOT thinking torturing your children to make them conform to whatever YOU decide is right isn’t the best option.
But maybe that’s just me.

Peak, malignant capitalism is when businesses are willing to destroy the planet and society to squeeze out a few extra dollars for people who already have more than they could ever need.

Why does anyone listen to the wet dreams of tech bros? They’re utterly dull, personality-free, unimaginative man boys.

I’m not convinced by framing NZ’s failure to recognise Palestine as “cowardice”.
Peter’s, Luxon and Seymour are all grifters with absolutely no morals or values. They’re not failing NZ or the world out of cowardice. They’re failing because they simply don’t care and don’t see any profit in it.

America’s obsession with “what did the founders think/do” is utterly bizarre. Civilisation has moved on so much it’s now akin to wondering what a chimpanzee thinks of iPhones.
Seriously, get a grip!

So when MAGA went on about “draining the swamp” they actually meant draining it of public funds and credibility?

Next time round the US should just elect an actual entitled toddler rather than a bloated, half-decayed one.

I guess the “Save our kids” folk mean saving kids from having more freedom than they did? Gosh, as a non-parent I always imagined parents might support a more accepting society and a future that didn’t look like something out of Mad Max. Silly me. Oppression and uniformity is what kids really need.🤣

Luxon: We’re going to ignore climate change and support environmental degradation, while also destroying the social fabric, so kiwis really need to breed more so billionaires have enough servants for their bunkers.

It feels like the RW are addicted to hypocrisy. The more extreme and obvious the better. I guess it’s how they “own the libs” and give themselves jollies.
