Good on you Robert You won't be disappointed Will you hook up with the local Green branch?
So what to do? In our area Pakeha joined with local iwi to fight for protection of Waikoropupu springs A lot more of this may be the way forward . Act locally and forge connections with other regions. Whats more , seems like a large number of civil ...
He says that "sovereignty lies in Parliament " while out the other side of his mouth he wants to surrender it to foreign interests and their secret lobbyists. He's a windbag with an inflated view of his powers of oratory, and democracy is fast going down ...
They seem to be blithely unaware (or just callous) that climate catastrophies will totally fuck up the supply chain that underpins global free markets, and environmental collapse will put a stop to our food producing capacities We need to become self ...
Exactly Without Maori input we're buggered Happening right here , vultures circling just waiting for the fast tracking approvals to be put in place Oh Joy! for the exploiters
While dishing out a fair bit of murder and mayhem to other parts of the world Nice folk!
Oh well then that changes everything Bomb Yemen!bomb the women! bomb the children!somehow avoid bombing the gays!
Doesn't matter what Netenyahu would do He'd be utterly powerless without the US providing billions of dollars of military aid Stop the weapons,stop the cash flow and he's done
I'm flattered by your long reply (with only one fuckwit in sight) but I'm not persuaded The documents show that multiple national leaders were considering and rejecting Central and Eastern European membership in NATO as of early 1990 and through 1991, that...
Not quite as clear cut as you make out . https://www.spiegel.de/international/world/nato-s-eastward-expansion-is-vladimir-putin-right-a-bf318d2c-7aeb-4b59-8d5f-1d8c94e1964d
As they do Gsays!!
Really? I suggested ...as you know.. "covid dissidents"to cover that broad group
The thing is you can't be exact when covering a whole group of people with differing motivations. You can at least be peaceable and respectful by using a broad term that's not insulting .
Well I thought I already had by suggesting covid dissidents And I wouldn't presume to have any clue about how such a varied group communicates It would be just as varied as their rationales
Well when you use such an inexact term as "cooker"you can't with any confidence predict their behavior We had friends who absolutely were not going to get the vaccine But they treated our decision with respect, didn't visit us during lockdown and kept in ...
I think the lockdowns did more to prevent transmission .Transmission was never tested for in the vaccine ,but I do remember the puzzlement when people started getting covid two or more times after the vaccine ,.There was uncertainty around it, as in , is ...
Those most at risk of myocarditis from the covid vaccine were young men between 12 and 17. Those most at risk from myocarditis from covid infection were older men after the age of 50 And the govt was strongly encouraging parents to get their 5-11 year old ...
The inference was that younger people should be vaccinated to save their grannies .As younger people were less inclined to have severe covid and therefore less inclined to be shedding, the connection between getting vaccinated and saving granny wasn't ...
The question as I read it was , and this is a paraphrase "Surely its more useful to find common ground ?" GSays not laying down the law, gently enquiring I'll ask it too Do we exclude, or do we find common ground?
I read it as a question .Maybe a rhetorical question, but still a question you could give a yes or no answer to.
Well Joe , you better come to this neck of the woods and protest.Covid is absolutely rampant in the area, no one wears masks, there is no campaign up and running for people to keep their vaccines up to date, super spreader events go unrestricted and people...
Maybe your Nana could have shown you what question marks mean.I understood GSays question and agree with him.I would answer his question with the word yes
Those at most risk of myocarditis from the vaccine were younger males from 12 to 17 Those at most risk of myocarditis from covid infection were males over 50. One group is not the same as the other None of us were forced to take the vaccine but there was a...
I gathered that those at risk of myocarditis were also the group unlikely to suffer severe effects from covid . The govt was strongly encouraging parents to get their children vaccinated. There were social consequences for those that chose not to , just as...
"Spoke"..
Let's face it Back in those days anyone who questioned the govt response, or even possible quibbles about Pfizers trials (as published by the BMJ)were absolutely pilloried and mocked . I myself noticed a kind of patriotic fervor in myself,....sacrificing ...
Covid dissidents? or sceptics
That was so well expressed , in simple language. Really really good
Thats the key alright Patricia , no sarcasm, no personal attacks, makes the difference between a quarrel and a discussion
Oh Weka! I think you're a really good communicator., and a very fair person My peregrinating mind must have been prompted by the word weka, which led to bamboo and my weka proof fence.I'm not clever enough to weave a convoluted story around you and fences....
PS I want an exemption to be made for me so that I can live another 40 years and see the trees I continue to plant reach maturity It all gives me far more contentment and wonderment than a lot of pointless quarrels . Happy Xmas! (if thats your thing)
