It's with much sadness that we mark the passing of Charles 'Charley' Hikuroa, singer and bass guitarist with Collision, a band known for their incredible live performances, and possibly Aotearoa's greatest funk album. www.audioculture.co.nz/profile/coll...

Anyone seen this covered in mainstream media? Because this absolutely gives the lie (even more) to Seymour's claims that it wanted to "have a discussion" Incredibly foul by ACT, but perhaps worse that media signal boost them while refusing to hold them to account www.scoop.co.nz/stories/PA25...

I want to ask something of you all: whenever you see the word "woke" substitute "universal human rights" in your mind. Brian is against human rights - he has said explicitly that he wants to take us back to the 1950s when women couldn't get safe abortions, a bank account, or a no-fault divorce.

Stop giving Brian Tamaki the mic to spew his hateful ideology. Shove it down his throat and record the sounds of him choking. Metaphorically of course. #briantamakieatspoo

Here’s the thing about this language: “went too far” suggests that there is a level at which hating us is fine, acceptable, at which it’s ok to dehumanise us. This isn’t a disagreement on politics & opinion. This isn’t cilantro or trip-hop. This isn’t defending us. www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

“After Tamaki's people assaulted staff at an educational event for children, and terrorised parents and kids, NZ Herald interviewed Tamaki for his 'version of events' while Stuff edited out the worst” @mountaintui.bsky.social with the receipts. Write to your MP, the Police Minister, the PM.

The biggest inaccuracy movies taught us is that villains are cool. Not talking about the moral aspects, just that they would look and act stylishly. Real world evil is so frequently dorky, schlubby and banal.

As someone who was injured and reported it to police I think it’s interesting the article says otherwise. There were multiple assaults, blood drawn, assaulted teenagers etc. The article really undersells the vibe.

Density Church are cowards hiding behind their indoctrinated youth and performative cultural pride. There is no pride in hate. Brian Tamaki is a grifter and as far from the ideal as a Christian as possible with his hate mongering. #ourcommunityisdiverse #lovenothate #pridepower

To be clear, I'm not in the 'never repeat disinfo, even to point it out' camp, but this is incredibly poor form from The Herald. They shouldn't have gone to Brian Tamaki for comment in the first place, let alone block quote his provably false rhetoric that defames an individual and harms others.

This young man has to leave NZ (for 1st time in his life) by Monday. Immigration lawyer: "In 28 yrs of doing these applications, this is the very first time I’ve seen such an application turned down & an expectation someone be deported when they’ve done absolutely nothing wrong." Penk? Doesn't care.
