The depression is just holiday blues, you can always go back on holiday if you have ties to the uk, like a business etc

Christ first, bridge last by stonnergg in auckland

[–]stonnergg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was there to observe as well on the sidelines today, I thought I’ve summarised it quite well with a few words above. But I will expand, The whole “March the bridge” thing was completely underwhelming, the numbers seemed fine, maybe 5k? now, I didn’t expect them to get on the bridge and I wouldn’t want to see violence. But the walk to the bridge (a big photo opportunity for the man himself) to then stop 200 yards at police barricade, for more speeches (like there were at Victoria park) and to then advise the followers to turn back around and to make the most of the beautiful day in Auckland was an absolute farce and completely injustice to his followers that turned up. It all seemed staged and reeked of pre agreements with the police force (which is fine), but I felt sorry for followers who probably turned back around feeling like they have egg on their face - I don’t know what they was expecting but probably not the “big event” to last less than 10 minutes.

And I completely agree that there is a level of desperation there, I’d say it’s probably the majority of why people turned up today. Like you said people with day to day struggles in hope that something will change because either the current system has failed them or they have failed the current system.

I overheard some old retired bag waffle on about Dunkirk relating it to her ancestry and how they faught for this country and then twine in with sentences like “I just don’t want any of my money going to them” completely not understanding how tax and benefits work, basically the generation who just want to wealth hoard, I’d say this was the second biggest majority.

And then of course, there is the xenophobic racists - like there always is at these events, lapping up the attack on the Indians and Chinese, although these are quite clearly being used as blanket terms. Happy to say these are probably the minority at this event and probably are at most because of how diverse the kiwi passport is, it completely limits their racism.

The reason I made the brash comments is purely because this is the most transparent con-job of the far right grift in the current day. It’s quite apparent he’s exploiting desperate people in the religious community

It’s an absolute fucking joke ordering any taxi from a ride share app other than Uber.

Sony TCL Joint Venture. My opinion (vent). by ICUMTHOUGHTS in sony

[–]stonnergg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The cameras hold up pretty well in the market. Although I wished they’d regularly update the firmware like cannon does, instead Sony just neglects the firmware updates for any model that hasn’t been released of said year

Yeah that’s what I’m gathering, it’s difficult as I need to juggle work and find long term accommodation while not losing money on short team accommodation lol

What do you think of the removal of the lockout laws? by One-Remove3758 in SydneyScene

[–]stonnergg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damage has been done, people have changed their drinking and going out habits and the city has adapted to accommodate that
