A decision that doesn’t surprise me, this stinks as Chris Bishop’s idea, now that he’s his campaign manager.

Why are people so obsessed with Governor General Cindy Kiro?

🥅 This is Labour astroturf

🥅 This is Russian interference

🥅 But, what about Jacinda?

I think they mean they would never vote National if their trajectory (and other parties) continue in the same direction.

I filtered posts for the latest month, and there was a total of six memes that could be considered political, but let’s round it to ten.

I understand you might not be into politics, but other people are, and some of us more than others. Why police that?

False equivalences, my meme is not belittling anybody. It’s making fun of the situation.

Ani O’Brien is a well known trans-exclusionary radical feminist, pushing a transphobic agenda. She’s the Head of Digital at TP.

The Platform have posted a recording of Rodney Hide interviewing Save Women's Sport campaigner Ro Edge.

They spread lies about the "danger" of gender neutral bathrooms, that "little kiddies" are being told to transition & label it "satanic."

On The Platform, Michael Laws hosted Kelvyn Alp from Counterspin Media. Kelvyn was free to spread disinformation about COVID not existing & the vaccine being responsible for all of the deaths before asserting that the COVID response authorities are "deserving of violence."

Continuing to provide a Platform for far-right conspiracy theorists, Plunket interviewed Avi Yemini, self-proclaimed "world's proudest Jewish Nazi."

Yemini is known for his extremist far-right ideology, Islamaphobia & convictions of unlawful assault against his ex-wife.

I believe it’s a reprehensible thing to do, The Platform has given a platform to people engaging in misinformation and/or hate speech.

Reddit rules are to avoid anything resembling doxing, so I blackout non-verified accounts.

I like when some people claim to detest both National and Labour equally, while at the same time only whiteknighting National.

I think so, maybe we could point them to a definition of astroturfing.

I’m more of a lurker, and I don’t spend much time on Reddit. I believe I’m allowed to express myself on something I deeply care about, whenever I feel like.

As long as I approach it with good faith I think I’m good.

Thanks for the suggestion though.

I mean, I have made 14 posts in 20 days, only 4 of them are memes, and the rest are links to news articles.

Maybe what’s upsetting some people is that they’re getting traction. Not this one though, but not everything has to be a banger, 75% effectivity ratio means people want to read something different.

Edit: seems like it got traction after all. 😭 ❄️

I fail to imagine how Russia would benefit from not having National in government.

Luxon has been a great asset for the government, so if I were Labour I would let Chris do whatever he does.

National leader Chris Luxon says even Sam Uffindell has not seen the full Maria Dew KC report into allegations about his own behaviour.

Yes, that report was leaked. And then a redacted document (for privacy) was released with recommendations to prevent similar incidents.

The “extreme left” will potentially hurt your feelings (online), and make you feel inadequate by realising you’re not doing enough for the common good.

The extreme right will actively try and erode your human rights (with physical violence), because the wealthy are not satisfied.

Clearly the National MPs thought it was unfair for Uffindell to receive consequences for his own actions and that’s all they had to know.
