Incrementalism will not save us, it only helps to ratchet government further right.

FUCK (and I can 𝐍𝐎𝐓 emphasis this enough) OFF!
NZ Labour? Oh, please—I've seen more backbone in a jellyfish soufflé and more conviction in a weather vane during a hurricane. If dithering were an Olympic sport, they'd take gold, silver, and a complimentary fruit basket.

OPINION: Labour’s finance spokesperson set the tone for 2026 with a message of restraint and fiscal responsibility — while avoiding the details voters will eventually demand.

There was a time when the United States looked down its nose at the countries in South America for being lawless banana republics. Who's the banana republic now, bitches?

Pediatricians say vaccines do not cause autism. A bear-eating heroin addict who fantasizes about sucking his own semen out of his lovers' orifices says they do. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

So ... the government just forced us all to have referendums on *existing* Māori wards because Local Communities Deserve Choice, but now they're unilaterally abolishing our regional councils because they don't like the Choices we made?

oh, so if this is because they needed to brute force executive power because they couldn't attack Maaori enough via local referenda then this is another human rights and constitutional issue. ACT completely giving the game away here. They're speedrunning unaccountable anti-democracy policy

Labour needs to boot Hipkins. If National get back in next year - we can lay the blame at Hipkins and Labours feet for not doing the "hard", yet very popular things we are all screaming for.
If you can't be transformative, if you dont want to be remembered fondly, then be Hipkins.

Has anyone seen Labour make an official party statement about this horrific human rights issue yet?
Hipkins jumped on bluesky after a 2month break to support Winston Peters here
Has so far refused to do the same to support the trans community in the face of destructive and, frankly, fatal policy that NZF and National delivered this week
Really showing his, and Labour's, priorities

Impeachment will do nothing. Does anyone not remember his first term?
He and the other fascists will just ignore it.
You need to physically remove them from office.
Over 80 years ago we learned that there is only one way to deal with fascists.
Americans do not seem to remember this.

the way that nz media feels comfortable stalking and reporting on prominent women in this country is actually fucking disgusting
its both a reason AND a symptom of the way powerful people in NZ routinely escape consequences for abuse and misogyny. NZ media need a clean out

I'm gonna say it again - why do we have to sit here and wait for elections while a government does everything in its power to make life worse for everyone other than the uber-rich?
This is where democracy fails (maybe one of several failure points).

THIS.
Fiance was assaulted about three years ago. We went straight to the police station to report it. Young cop who took the statement looked like he wished he was elsewhere.
Several days later, after a call to see what is happening, we find he didnt even put it it in to the system.

I am amazed at how amazed people are that male police officers let women down time and time again and protect each other
the police force attracts some people who want to help their communities, and then a large cohort of bullies, thugs and power-hungry misogynist men with anger problems

Imagine trying to defend the NYT on a more normal day.
Imagine doing that NOW.
And journalists wonder why the public has lost all respect for them.

The emails that you’re seeing now are news in themselves, but that’s because of how they’re coming out—a congressional committee released them—& the context in which they’re being viewed. A guy emailing a reporter talking about old girlfriends or saying someone is “dirty” is not a whole news story.
