And Chris Trotter?
The Greens are history. Thoughts? Chris Trotter. https://thedailyblog.co.nz/2023/05/02/is-it-game-over-for-the-greens/ In sharp contrast to the leadership of Jeanette Fitzsimons and Rod Donald, who, respectively, embodied the movement’s fidelity to science...
His obsession. Extreme inequality in New Zealand. And that is bad? Yes, the liberal classes have much more important things to worry about...
I must say the word doesn't appeal to me either (hence the quote marks). I much prefer the description by Chris Hedges in his brilliant book 'Death of the Liberal Class. In this searing polemic Chris Hedges indicts liberal institutions, including his ...
The fact is that the liberal left are focused on identity politics as opposed to class politics.
Bomber Bradbury puts out two excellent posts this morning highlighting that a class war has been waged for nearly 40 years by the rich in New Zealand.... and that the liberal 'woke' left are silent on this and instead focus on identity politics. The woke ...
I’m guessing China will be accused in the future of an unprovoked attack on Taiwan. You know…the way Russia’s attack on the Donbass has been described as unprovoked.
The events of the past 2 months have made me decide not to vote for the Greens. This story is just further confirmation of how this party has declined. It looks like a TOP party vote for me. Thanks to Shanreagh and others for informing me on this issue.
Christopher Hitchens wrote an excellent book on the matter called ‘The Missionary Position: Mother Teresa in Theory and Practice’
It's like a new religion.
Did you watch the Jennifer Bilek interview? (above) It is well worth it. You will learnt a lot.
This is scary stuff you have shared, Shanreagh, and explains why so much of the establishment is captured by this ideology. Thank you for posting so much on this. I have learnt heaps as a result. I am presently watching a video 'Who is Behind the Trans ...
Her reputation is being damaged already by association with her Green Party colleagues' activities in the past few weeks....and her tweet after Albert Park.
Excellent interview.
Could Chloe join TOP?
Looks like Jonathan Cook isn't that impressed by George Monbiot. I once admired George Monbiot. But his grim trajectory shows us where politics is heading. Monbiot has form. For several years, he has been regularly smearing the other few icons of the ...
I can't be bothered looking back through comments for examples that you would discount or not satisfy you anyway. Ban, censor and silence me if you want to. [See you back on April Fools’ Day for making false accusations about censoring on TS and wasting ...
I have no right of reply to RL’s fraudulent allegations against me. Jester and I have been censored and silenced for daring to question the neocon narrative.
I am unable to debate this point quickly with you as I have been put into moderation.
I am not sure I can answer you.
Or banned their language.
There was a coup d'etat in 2014, in which the democratically elected government of the Ukraine as removed by far right agitators, supported by the neoconservative cabal in the U.S. You can keep shooting the many messengers, but historical fact is just that...
It was a civil war. Are you aware of the history of Ukraine?
Your source? I thought we were expected to provide links for unsubstantiated claims. I know you are aware there was a coup d'etat in 2014, in which the democratically elected government of the Ukraine as removed by far right agitators, supported by the ...
And another comment below states that Ukraine .... had been shelling the Donbas for 8 years. Does anybody think that he would not start shelling again if the Russians left tomorrow.
Yes, Jester you are correct. It is ok for some to insult, smear, abuse and slander, but if you, I or the others who speak, question the narrative in even the most diplomatic language, we can expect moderation and threats of banning. Free speech. What a ...
should be banned from The Standard forthwith. It's as if you can't question the neocon propaganda we are fed....
And there is the risk to the world of nuclear war because of US and UK brinkmanship. Peace now. The UN must call for an immediate ceasefire.
The war started in 2014. Did you know that detail?
To understand how western media propaganda works, I recommend you read Naom Chomsky to comprehend how our leaders manufacture consent through the corporate mainstream media.
Are you able to debate without hurling smears, abuse and slander? If your arguments are strong, rely on evidence- not abuse. I note you use this system with many who disagree with you I this subject.
