A few moments ago, Rights Aotearoa sent the following letter to Paul Goldsmith alleging actual journalistic fraud at RNZ. We now know that shortly after the story was published, Ruth was offered the messages that told a different story. SHE IGNORED THE EMAIL www.rightsaotearoa.nz/letter-to-ho...

Who here are InternetNZ members? They DESPERATELY need good people to be nominated to the board. There are two board seats up for grabs and its absolutely critical that we don't let them get captured by the FSU folks trying for a takeover. Please nominate good people if you can and VOTE in July!!

Media Release: Rights Aotearoa Demands Immediate Action Over RNZ's Unconscionable Misrepresentation of Deceased Trans Youth www.rightsaotearoa.nz/media-releas...

Okay, Team Human Rights: Time to put the pressure on RNZ. Email: Paul Thompson [email protected] Mark Stevens [email protected] Demand: (1) Article retracted immediately, (2) Apology, (3) Examination of Editorial Processes and (4) Ruth Hill to be sacked or disciplined. GO FOR IT!

last week RNZ published a story about alex, a 17-year trans teen who tragically died, alone, in 2023. the piece erased both his identity, and story. i know this because i have 6000 messages he posted online in the two years leading up to his death. please RT, for alex: www.webworm.co/p/lifeanddea...

If NZ’s richest can climb above $100b during a so-called “tough year”, then maybe the problem isn’t the economy it’s who the economy is working for? Growth for the few. Cuts for the many. That’s not progress. That’s inequality. TPM backs a wealth tax fairness isn’t radical, it’s necessary. #NZPol

Absolutely correct assessment of how Cass is being used in Aotearoa to justify political interference based on disinformation and the personal beliefs of the politicians involved 🧵

👏 "Te Pāti Māori echoes the call of the Professional Association for Transgender Health Aotearoa #PATHA @jennifilm.nz in demanding the govt allow Te Whatu Ora to publish the guidelines without further delay." @tepaatimaori.bsky.social 29 May 💯 www.scoop.co.nz/stories/PA25...

Ok, seriously, our own Melanie Lynskey, Robyn Malcolm, and Lucy Lawless?! This will destroy me, but I am so going. youtu.be/1YOnuqAzTj4?...

This is political interference in matters of science and health care and is unacceptable

It’s really comforting that as food skyrockets in price, your neighbors are disappeared by masked goons, and people die en masse of preventable illness, Republicans and Democrats can come together and say: fuck this one trans teenager in particular for trying to run track with her friends

We were hoping that this letter to @bsky.app could first be shared by a Gazan, but we were too worried that doing so would get their account deleted so we are sharing first. You can sign on to the letter about the unfair treatment of Gazans on Bluesky here: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

If your party won’t fight for you, why fight for them? Find the ones who will. We are done with seat-warmers and sweet talk. We won’t ghost you after the election. Big mihi to ❤️ @kidfortune.bsky.social giving life to this quote. #VoteTPM #ToitūTeTiriti #NZPol #PoliticalArt

We don't spend hours of our time on these things to be chucked in a sentiment analysis bucket by AI or dismissed for not being an academic. That is not democracy. Thousands of Regulatory Standards Bill submissions not read by ministry newsroom.co.nz/2025/05/19/t...

YIKES - not very democratic AT ALL and makes a complete mockery of the process. It's clear Seymour is driving through an ideological position, and carelessly throwing aside democratic protections as he goes: newsroom.co.nz/2025/05/19/t...

A lot of people are angry about the Green Budget because it reveals how much of the status quo is a matter of choice. It's not a requirement to have poverty. It's not just-the-way-things-are for our health system to be in crisis. Income tax did not evolve by natural selection. We can do better.

"Why are they so scared of an economy that works for everyone?" @chloe.swarbrick 18 May 🟢 "91% of NZers will pay less income tax. They're not telling you about that tho are they? Only the top 3% will pay the wealth tax." 🟢 #NZGreenBudget 40yrs of Trickle Down ➡️'Rising Tide' ➡️only raised THEIR yachts
