This govt is just constitutionally incapable of tolerating dissent, even from literal children Just cowardly, craven behaviour. I hope one of these kids does a haka about it www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

In a past life under the John Key government, I worked on Youth Parliament. In no way were the youth MPs instructed to refrain from criticising the government; that's literally what they're there to do (if they want to). www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

How it started How it's going

My cartoon in today's www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/3607... Extreme weather is here to stay. The warnings are getting louder and louder. We need to do everything we can to prepare. #ExtremeWeather #ClimateChange #Flooding #Awareness #Cartoon #EditorialCartoon #NewZealand

Recent events suggest the Proud Boys are not showing fewer terrorist tendencies but..

"“Shoot a couple, the rest will go home, I promise,” said one meme. There were arrests of Proud Boys on violence charges in multiple states. Five days later, their designation as a terrorist entity in New Zealand expired." Proud Boys no longer deemed terrorists in NZ www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3607...

interesting to see how much more coverage here we're getting of a chant at a music festival than the IDF being ordered to shoot and murder people in Gaza who are seeking aid!

But genocide is fine. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

Whacked on the BBC Glasto coverage to see what they were showing instead of Kneecap and caught Amy of Amyl & the Sniffers giving a pro Palestine speech... Beeb editors playing whack-a-mole

Been sick (like all of NZ) but I'm on the mend & back sweating for the last couple of days of June. I'm really close to raising $2K & would love your help getting the last $ together. All of it goes towards some awesome life saving Rainbow charities in Aotearoa www.sweatwithpride.com/fundraisers/...

American fashion designer Willy Chavarria starts his show with a performance dedicated to those illegally detained by ICE.

im kind of living for how hideochious lauren sanchez’s wedding outfits are like this is what $35 mil got you? ek

daring Zohran to cut a promo using this name, get this man in a singlet yelling straight into the mic, it will do the numbers trust me I've worked in comms

This just reminds me of when Katherine Ryan told me off on air for calling ACT far right and now look what they are doing

I see the US is fucked again.

Sometimes the bad thing is exactly as bad as the thing seems and trying to tell people "it's not that bad" isn't being *postive,* it's just normalizing the incredibly bad thing.

Thread on the gaslighting RNZ is undertaking to try and defend their trans harming article

This is what comes from the legitimisation of using facial recognition. Supermarkets in Aotearoa have jumped on it thanks to the Privacy Commissioner, but misuse of your data collected for passports and airport ‘smart-gates’ by other law enforcement agencies is just as big a threat.

Just one example of harassment that no longer breaches Instagram or Facebook guidelines. It’s becoming normalised and Seymour’s behaviour is contributing. Holding him to account is one step before we try and dismantle the rest of this abusive system. #nzpol our.actionstation.org.nz/petitions/lu...

Took a stroll down the comments of a short video someone had posted of floodwaters in Tasman district today. Geo-engineering, cloud seeding, UN, managed retreat, 15 minute cities. boyoboyoboy [head in hands, rolled up into foetal ball emoji]

This is an incredible explanation.

When online harassment is dressed in the authority of Parliament, it signals that ridicule is not just endorsed but institutional. That’s more than a little concerning. #nzpol www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360...

The protesters are braver than any Magat

Great news. You know where to get your groceries now

Piazza is a course discussion platform used by many colleges and universities. Piazza requires students to provide the following information when signing up. From 2017-2019, Palantir Technologies paid Piazza $916,000 for access to this data. www.sec.gov/Archives/edg...

'Since the early 2000s, researchers have used the term "stochastic terrorism" to describe a way of indirectly threatening people. Nobody is specifically told "harm these people", so the person putting them at risk has plausible deniability.' Seymour knows exactly what he is doing. #NzPol

Fuck ENTIRELY off

It's time for our Prime Minister to pull his colleagues into line. Whether it's Seymour or Peters, punching down on the public is unacceptable for a Deputy Prime Minister and they need to be held to account asap #nzpol SIGN our.actionstation.org.nz/petitions/lu... #nzpol

#NZpol Exposing the sheer scale of ACT's unchecked manipulation of the political landscape... They've shortened public say on the RSB to 30 hrs AND have just released "an inquiry into SM harms on young people"... 24 hrs after Seymour has been taken to task on his own weaponisation of it.

What kind of boss let's his staff run amuck without consequences. David is bullying people he's supposed to be deputy PM over. His behavior is deserving of a suspension from the house. If tpm get suspended for haka he should be suspended for bullying, lying and spreading propaganda #nzpol
