The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

Dear AoNZ progressive policy advocates: Please learn and understand the Overton window, and changing the conversation by leading it. At the moment the only person shifting the Overton window is Winston fucking Peters and that's no good for any of us.

Exactly this. Even if you're the most callous environmental opportunist, you must know that Trump doesn't believe in honouring any deal he changes his mind about.
The present US regime won't keep any "deal" it signs, but instead regards making such a deal as a sign that you are a mark who can be intimidated. Dealing with them is simply stupid and pointless.
THIS FUCKING GOVERNMENT! 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Let us remember that the NZ police unlawfully raided the house of journalist Nicky Hager after Hager published a book exposing the malfeasance of Judith Collins. Police had to apologise while Collins is being appointed by Luxon to head the Law Commission. What a joke. www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3505...

I think the death of Stephen Miller will be one of those moments where, when I'm 80 years old and watching my grandkids unwrap presents at Christmas, I'll suddenly recall and start laughing.

Our news media just casually lying about another government murder in Minnesota...
I've made a complaint but really, wtf, the damage is already done when they lie so easily by calling it wrestling.

If your response to videos out of Minnesota is “why isn’t anybody doing anything,” and by that you mean “why are they not running up and tackling masked people with guns,” you are free to think that but I will block you.

"Being a man" is not the same thing as being a misogynist or an oppressor. That's what misogynists want men to believe, because they want men to think they can't divest from patriarchy without losing their entire identity.

I have a new challenge for myself…
When I hear some dude tell me that men protect women I am going to ask him:
1. The specific women (by name) he protected
2. Exactly what he protected them from.
If they can manage a name for question 1. I guarantee you the answer to question 2 will be a dudes name
