Thank you Drowsy M. Kram. It is off the scale vicious.
Thanks again. It was only the faceblabblabblab I was on but I know of folks who have moved over to Mastodon, who were formerly on X. Sounds interesting and thank you for being helpful. I'll have a look at Discord.
Mr Nobody. I liked what AB said in regard to the Tory countryside. But for now, I will report on what I have noticed in our electorate of Ohariu. Something interesting has happened. Usually the split of Labour Vs National (but sadly hardly any Green) ...
Not sure what you mean. I have been attacked for being a woman. What I was saying is I am not interested in the new faux feminism which is simply transphobia, and seems to be totally consumed by some invisible threat of public toilets. Think of groups like...
Thank you SPC.
Kia ora Interested to know if any left women here at The Standard who have been pushed off social media due to intense misogynistic trolling during the election cycle we are in. This has mainly been occuring on the Labour Party page, Green Party page and ...
Yes, I can see it, and am not on Twitter. And what Tricledrown said.
Great article and I totally agree. Coming from the Oil + Gas industry - the most polluting industry in the world, I wanted to do something that would make a difference so decided to tackle the fashion industry (one of the other most polluting industries) ...
RIP the Grandduke Ferdinand, RIP the Western World.
Thank you Grey - and yes, people can find justification in the most unlikely places. Well said. Take care.
... a facebook message to pacific rosie. I also have a petition...
Thank you for your comments and for making some points - I hadn't thought about. I certianly agree with you on this point you make: "reasoned discussion that is open to the public easily is rare in NZ." I guess for me, in the past i just ignored some off ...
Eeek. Grey, those bad days you speak of, when I have visited and not commented have really been rather dire. Hanging out with misogynists is something I'd rather not do - I can see your point, there are good thinkers too, but yeah, a bit too much of the ...
Kind words veutoviper :-) It's probably a good thing that the site goes through changes with commenters, but there are voices I miss. I have noticed there are less women, which I find disappointing. I can imagine there are good reasons for that. Are you on...
And you too, super Rongotai trooper! Hope you are well. Please see reply to Grewarshark above, as to my absence. I did come back for a sniff around and found sword fishs' interesting graph and info. That was the kind of analysis I used to enjoy, and it was...
Ha ha ha. Grey - I got frightened off last time I tried to come back. Instead of finding some good craic I found a seething pit of misogynists defending Brett Kavanagh - It was hideous. I felt things had changed with the nature of dialogue in these parts. ...
+1 Greywarshark. Absolute nonsense statment.
Thank you swordfish. That was an interesting gander. Totally not suprised about Ohairu being light fawn - such a tough seat full of old skool conservatives and red necks of a blue persuasion. It's an anti progressive area. We were lucky we scraped through....
Thanks for your support Anne. That's really sick of those guys. Must be hanging around on MRA sites, or maybe they have been like that all of their lives.

:roll:
I really hope you never end up on a jury here in NZ shadrach. You have no grasp of the big and complex picture of sex crimes.
HI Ankerrawshark, yes it is. Although after today's boys clubs rape culture and facts denials and abuse from Bewildered I don't think I will return. What happened around here?
I think your lack of insight, emotional intelligence and knowledge on the problem of sexual assault and rape culture in the USA is more concerning.
Didn't seem to work but thanks Anne. I was going to give an eye roll to Chuck as well. :D Yes, I'd say middle aged white conservative males are absolute experts in the experience of of sexual assault of women. I definitely need to be educated by these men ...
Damn. I've forgotten how to do an eye roll. It's been awhile.
Thank you Anne. Clearly shadrach has a fanciful notion that Republicans have justice for female victims of sexual crime deep in their hearts, and enjoys an opportunity to patronise female commenters by attempting to "educate" their silly brains.
Hi Adrian. The Brett Kavanaugh story is not irrelevant if you are a woman. This does "affect the world as a whole" because women make up half the world's population and one Very Large Country is showing us just how much they hate women by electing an ...
Yes, that would be very cruel. I don't think solkta's suggestion was very well thought through.
"It seems to me more than reasonable to ask those who choose not to have children to help pay the costs of those who do." That already occurs in the form of paying taxes - common good 'an all. But further to that, are you suggesting those that choose not ...
Sanpaku. Haven't heard that term for awhile, but yes indeed, he is. And if there's any doubt about his attributes, his actions confirm the sanpaku theory.
