Shocking but perhaps, in retrospect, not that surprising - turns out the Minister canned all social science and humanities research funding **because she just didn't like them**

These are the only words you need to read, memorise and repeat to anyone who argues it would have been different under the dems.

The thing is many of Bidenists still clinging to this system that's about to fall thinking a man committing genocide brazenly is going to save democracy are going to perish in the totalitarian conditions that have already set in & that we must prepare to continue to live under & in resistance of.

Surprise sur-fucking-prise #nzpol

🚨Imagine the suffering we are living since our return from the south we have no water. The bombing destroyed the generator that used to draw water Now we are in dire need of $3,000 to buy a new motor to supply our house and the houses in the neighborhood with water Please help us🙏 gofund.me/edd687b8

🧵 When we submitted on the Countering Foreign Interference Bill (nzccl.org.nz/submission-c...) we drew MPs' attention to the fact that the Cabinet papers & policy advice had been kept secret. Magically, it now appears the Cab papers were published the day after everyone submitted to the Cttee.

Dr. Abu Safiyah is being released. Should never have been arrested.

What we have here folks is imaginative poverty: boy genius over here with “iTs thE tRollEy pRobLem”. There are more than 2 options, you’ve just drunk the kool aid to think there’s not.

Vote for genocide to happen only in other countries at the hands of Americans, simples

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

Fuck Destiny Church. Remove their tax exemption status and hold them accountable for the hate they spread.

THIS. Also please check the *bleep*ing pivilege of any hypothetical predicated on the idea that people can just throw some clean underwear in a gym bag and move along. There's millions for who that isn't a viable option - never was, never will be.

International law isn’t going to save you. Get off your asses, white people. You have A LOT of work to do.

"I don't have a side in this" someone says when one side is neonazis. I'm sorry, you chose a side.

This is what the ‘Luxon led’ government has done. This is who they are. They have created untold distress and hardship in a community that’s already experiencing vulnerability and poverty. #nzpol

Hello New Zealand David Seymour an active ACT Minister of NZ's Parliament believes in this well funded Atlas Organisation. Be very aware. Thank you for your words @senatorsurfer.bsky.social #nzpol

The air of insanity about all of this is starting to get to me.

My heart ached when I was reminded that Aaron Swartz was prosecuted for trying to make academic knowledge more accessible to the public. Meta, meanwhile, is doing it for their own bottom line. I'm going to guess that no one at Meta will be looking at spending 35 years in jail for this.

Even if the first part of this bill's summary wasn't stupid, the second part is some of the most idiotic shit imaginable.

The Israeli military has expanded its assaults in the occupied West Bank, killing an eight-month-pregnant Palestinian woman during an armed raid in the Nur Shams refugee camp.

#nzpol The problem is the guy in the lower right of the pic....

Israeli occupation forces have burned down a Palestinian house during their raid on the Al-Wad neighborhood in the town of Silat al-Harithiya, west of Jenin.

Hope is Palestinians’ strongest weapon, & it’s what kept them going for 77yrs despite all the odds. I love it when our supporters share our optimism & aspirations, & when any pessimism & defeatism is kept in private because trust me we get it but we need to believe in dreams.

I cannot underline enough how *fucking disastrous* this kind of approach, & ideology, is for health processes. There is enough evidence of malfeasance and outright ineptitude here that the government should be gone tomorrow. National's attack on public health is literally killing people.

It’s time Aotearoa says Kao!!! I love this initiative from Latino freeze! Aotearoa we need the same energy here. Boycott the Wright foundation Boycott all ACT donors Boycott all fossil fuel connected companies. Let our economy rot until the corruption is removed!!!! 🚫🚫🚫 🖤🤍❤️ #AotearoaKao #nzpol

Winston is voting for a law which would make Cook islands PM Mark Brown a criminal for carrying out his official diplomatic duties on behalf of the Cook islands www.rnz.co.nz/internationa...

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Nour. Before the war Nour worked in advertising and her husband Mohammed was an optometrist. They have two young children, Julia and Ziad. Both their jobs and homes were destroyed and Ziad suffers from anemia and vitamin deficiencies.
