Winnie is out of control....completely

Whatever his hairbrained scheme, the Temu Machiavelli is an utter prick.

mrweeney.bsky.social•8 days ago

Winston got what he wanted as deputy PM. Now that spotlight is on Seymour, Peters seems pretty deliberate about weekly stunts to grab headlines. He's clearly angling himself away from National and Act. Is he thinking that Luxon's low rating makes it worthwhile to blow up the coalition now-ish?

WTF?

He did what. Fucks sake.

Wait, WHAT?

It's ridiculous he hasn't been forced to resign.

exaldear.bsky.social•8 days ago

That involves a strong political leader.

Why would our mainstream media (speaking generally) do their fucking jobs?

That might cut off access to the gaslighters, liars and idiots in parliament…

If we had a Prime Minister who knew how to be a CEO he would be hauling his Deputy over the coals and making him apologise for this. Complete vacuum of leadership in this country right now.

OK Boomer and OK Groomer are 2 very different phrases (& implication) imo

creativeelc.bsky.social•8 days ago

Isn't this defamation? This is incredibly dangerous rhetoric. The LGBTQ+ community already struggle massively with this disgusting term being thrown at them. Why isn't there more press on it?? I'm hoping Chlöe gets a case together. Or the leader of the house forces him to apologise.

richardhulse.bsky.social•6 days ago

On the face of it, yes. IANAL, but the defences of truth, honest opinion, consent or privilege don't seem to apply.

creativeelc.bsky.social•6 days ago

I'm also surprised not one media outlet posted about this. Winston's rhetoric seems to be getting more & more out of hand. It doesn't help that the PM is too spineless to rein him in. Jacinda would have said something that's for sure. Luxon's looking weaker by the second.

Pat, i was shocked & upset by this, so went & found the IV WP did today. what i heard was a lame riff on "Ok boomer" & an old man chucklin away to himself. relieved it was only that.

MUCH MUCH more threatening is what followed? WP on Benjamin Doyle: "[BD] is not going to survive this experience..."

cybogoblin.bsky.social•8 days ago

Little by little, Winnie's daring someone, anyone to take him to court.

He'll need something to do when low-rizz Rimmer takes over.

exaldear.bsky.social•8 days ago

Don't forget we have a 2 tier justice system. Male politicians can say whatever they want and get away with it

mrweeney.bsky.social•8 days ago

Lo-rizz Rimmer!!! Bahahahahahaha!!! That's pure gold. I'm always going to see him with an R on his forehead now!

cybogoblin.bsky.social•8 days ago

I know I have a 'shop of Seymour with the 'H' on his forehead, but can't for the life of me remember where I saved it.

mrweeney.bsky.social•8 days ago

Oh yeah - it was an H. It's been way too long since I watched. Hope you find the pic, it's timely! 😁

cybogoblin.bsky.social•8 days ago

This isn't my work, I'm far from the only person to have come up with this combination...

mrweeney.bsky.social•7 days ago

Bahahahahahaha! The crossover is perfect. And I love the "Low-rizz Rimmer" name. Totally stealing it from now on!
