My least favorite kind of mind fuckery is when racist people call Black people racist for calling out THEIR racism.

Our entire life experience makes us uniquely qualified to call it out when we see it.

And believe me, we let a LOT of shit slide.

Nancy Mace spent the entire day ranting about a trans woman member of Congress, who hasn't assaulted a soul, using the same bathroom as her.

Not a peep about the guy credibly accused of paying for sex with a minor.

Disgusting hypocrisy.

People bitching about echo chambers on Bluesky would be shocked to know how real life friends work.

Being on bluesky without fighting through a sea of bots and ads made me realize I don’t dislike social media, I disliked not being able to be social on social media

Bluesky feels like I took a Time Machine back to 2009 when I was still like “Hey this social media thing is going to make the world a better place.”

Public submissions are now being invited on this Bill

Time to get writing. Time to speak up and tell this sham of a government what we think of this obnoxiously racist bill.

You need to have Newsroom Pro account but this piece by Dame Anne Salmond plus her replies to comments is brilliant. And would be a sound basis for submissions
Anne Salmond: Of treaties, cabbages and kings
Act leader David Seymour is ignoring history and his own King in claiming nowhere in the world grants rights based on ancestry, writes Anne Salmond

Every time someone asks why tangata whenua and tangata Tiriti are marching, protesting and speaking out point out that there are still people like this. So comfortable in their own privilege that they feel confident to voice this type of racist rhetoric.

It’s up to us to ensure Don Brasch and his decrepit disciplines have zero say. We need to cancel out any submissions they scrap up.

Just found this on Facebook. Let's not let 1m Māori carry the load. Tangata Tiriti must act too
